IBM System p5 520 and 520Q Technical Overview and Introduction

Many of the features that are described in this document are operating system dependent 
and might not be available on Linux. For more information, see:

Linux subscriptions are now available when ordered through IBM and combined with an IBM 
System p5 Express Product Offering. Clients can purchase a one-year, specially priced 
subscription or a greater discount for a three-year subscription.

These new Linux options, available on IBM System p5 Express Product Offering servers, 
bring improved pricing and price performance to our clients interested in Linux as their 
primary operating system. Clients interested in AIX 5L can also obtain an Express Product 
Offering that fits their needs.

Clients are still encouraged to purchase support for their Linux subscription either through 
IBM Global Services or through the distributor to receive updates and technical assistance as 
needed. Support is not included in the price of the subscription.

The new lower-priced Linux subscriptions, when combined with the lower package prices of 
the IBM System p5 Express Product Offering, make these products an exceptional value for 
our smaller to mid-market clients, as well as larger enterprises.

The p5-520 and p5-520Q are customer setup (CSU) servers and are shipped with materials 
to assist in the general installation of the server. The server cover has a quick reference 
service information label that provides graphics that can aid you in identifying features and 
locating information. This section provides some additional service-related information.

Note: IBM only supports the Linux systems of clients with a SupportLine contract that 
covers Linux. Otherwise, contact the Linux distributor for support.
