IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node Introduction and Implementation Guide
We now review the various components of the IBM Flex System in order to understand how
the IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node integrates with the PureFlex Systems solution. All
of the components are used in the three pre-integrated offerings to support compute, storage,
and networking requirements. You can select from these offerings, which are designed for key
client initiatives and help simplify ordering and configuration.

While we only provide a summary of the IBM Flex System components in the following
sections, its important to understand the various available options for IBM Flex System before
we discuss the IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node in detail in Chapter 2, “Introduction to
IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node” on page 39.

1.3 IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis
The IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis is a 10U next-generation server platform with
integrated chassis management. It is a compact, high-density, high-performance, rack-mount,
scalable server platform system. It supports up to 14 one-bay compute nodes that can share
common resources, such as power, cooling, management, and I/O resources within a single
Enterprise Chassis. In addition, it can also support up to seven 2-bay compute nodes or three
4-bay compute nodes (three IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Nodes or expansion
enclosures) when the shelves are removed from the chassis. The1-bay, 2-bay, and 4-bay
components can be ‘mixed and matched’ to meet specific hardware requirements.
