IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node Introduction and Implementation Guide
12.1 Host configuration overview
In this section we provide an overview of connectivity between servers (hosts) and storage
with the primary focus on how to configure the hosts.
with the primary focus on how to configure the hosts.
A host system, as defined here, is an open-systems computer that is connected to storage
through LAN or SAN switches, using either Fibre Channel (FC), iSCSI or FCoE protocols. In a
IBM Flex System a host is also called a compute node.

IBM Flex SystemCompute nodes are available with either Intel Xeon or IBM Power7
microprocessors. These Compute nodes use integrated network ports or optional network
adapters to connect to external devices through the switches or pass-thru modules that are
installed in the chassis.

The following types of Compute nodes are available for IBM Flex Systems:
��
IBM System x: These Compute nodes come with Intel Xeon microprocessors and provide
the function, reliability, and performance of the X-Architecture® systems in a
small-form-factor design. They support a variety of Microsoft Windows, Linux, and
VMware operating systems.
