Overview
The RS/6000 (TM) Model R50 PowerPC (R) Server continues the evolution of the R30 and R40 rack systems with improved performance and expandability. These rack mounted systems are very reliable, highly scalable, and readily expandable -- qualities crucial for today's business and technical environments.
The Model R50 is a scalable symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) system offered in configurations starting with two processors and expandable up to an 8-way system. You can also add four 1GB memory cards to scale the R50's memory to 4GB. The R50 combines the performance of the 604e 200MHz PowerPC processor with 2MB L2 cache per processor, resulting in substantially higher performance compared to predecessor systems. The rack enclosure (six EIA drawer) packaging supports two disk bays, two media bays, and 15 available Micro Channel (R) I/O slots.
Selected models of the RS/6000 rack family can be upgraded to either the R50 or R5U.
In addition to the SCSI interfaces, the Model R50 supports the Serial Storage Architecture (SSA) storage interfaces. SSA disks deliver outstanding performance for transaction-intensive applications and offer redundancy features to keep your data safe.
Intended Customers
The Model R50 provides outstanding price/performance as a follow-on to the Model R40 SMP commercial server. The Model R50 is an upgrade path for customers who currently have a Model 9XX/RXX or R30/R40 system installed.

SMP Technology
Design: The RS/6000's SMP design incorporates multiple PowerPC processors sharing a single common memory and a single copy of the AIX Version 4.1.5 or 4.2.1 for Servers operating system. Jobs are scheduled across the processors, allowing separate processes to be run simultaneously. Data and instructions are accessed from the shared memory through a high-speed cache to the processors. This simple design with a coherent cache allows programs to exploit the parallelism provided by the multiple processors.
Design Requirements: A multiprocessor system must satisfy several requirements when compared to a uniprocessor system. They must:
Design Fulfillment: The RS/6000 SMP models have the following major attributes:
Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS)
IBM continues to apply RAS experience to the RS/6000 Servers from many decades of building mission-critical mainframe computers. RAS characteristics such as error detection, fault tolerance, reliable hardware components, high availability, fault management, concurrent or online diagnostics, which were once available only on mainframe computers, are now implemented in SMP RS/6000 Servers.
RAS is an integral part of the SMP RS/6000 and AIX Version 4 design philosophy. But RAS doesn't stop there, it affects the way that IBM can offer service on SMP RS/6000 products to keep systems operational. In IBM, RAS is integrated into all aspects of hardware design, programming support, manufacturing quality, application system design, service, and service support. Its purpose is to help assure that the IBM product is:
Reliability, Fault Tolerance, and Data Integrity
The support processor is continuously powered, even when system power is off. The mirrored console support means that remote service actions are visible and controlled by the customer. This includes control over whether the system can be remotely rebooted. An additional feature is that the system can be set to dial a remote service or support point should the system fail, and a surveillance function allows the system to detect "hang" conditions in the system and, if necessary, invoke a rapid reboot.
AIX Version 4 for servers operating system also contributes to reliability and serviceability. Features such as the Logical Volume Manager, Journaled File System (JFS), and dynamic kernel all contribute to a reliable and robust operating system implementation.
Availability and Fault Management
Fault Prevention
Serviceability
With SystemGuard, support personnel can remotely login to a system to review error logs, perform remote maintenance, and remotely reset, boot, and diagnose the system via a phone line.
In addition, the SystemGuard processor operates on its own power boundary, making it possible to work on the system even if the system is powered off.
SystemGuard's main features are:
RS/6000, System/370, and TURBOWAYS are trademarks of International Business Machines Corporation in the United States or other countries or both. PowerPC, Micro Channel, AIX, ESCON, S/390, Ultimedia, and Portmaster are registered trademarks of International Business Machines Corporation in the United States or other countries or both. Other company, product, and service names may be trademarks or service marks of others.
WORLD-CLASS TECHNICAL SERVICE AND SUPPORT
The SMP RS/6000 (TM) system servers come with IBM world class technical service and support.
Hardware Service and Support
Service Director/6000 can provide increased system availability through remote maintenance information reporting. System errors are dynamically monitored and analyzed. If the situation warrants it, the system can place a service call automatically to IBM without any customer intervention being required. Service Director/6000 is an account management application for use by the IBM service provider.
Service Director/6000 for RS/6000 is an IBM-exclusive software application that features:
AIX support offerings are available under the AIX SupportLine Family of Services and Service Director/6000 for RS/6000.
Scalability: Scalability is also a key design consideration. The IBM SMP servers have been built to be easily upgraded. The packaging is such that it permits convenient replacement or upgrading of processor, memory, or I/O adapters.
For example, the processors are contained on dual-processor cards and to upgrade from a two-way to a four-way system is merely a matter of plugging in an additional dual-processor card.
RS/6000 R00 System Rack: The R00 System Rack provides mounting space and support for Models R10, R20, R21, R24, R30, R40, and R50 and external supported devices. The 1.6-meter rack meets the requirements of the Electronics Industries Standards (EIA) EIA-310C standard. An EIA is a unit measure of vertical mounting space that equals 44.45 mm (1.75 inches). The R00 System Rack has 32 EIA units of vertical mounting space.
The R00 System Rack can be used as the base rack to support one or more processor drawers with available external supported devices, and an expansion rack to support additional external supported devices. AC and DC power distribution units are available. Features are available to provide bolt-down to either a concrete or raised floor.

The following Qs and As provide details on the contents of the R50/R5U model conversion shipment group and the additional features you will need to order or have available before performing the upgrade. The Qs and As also discuss which existing features are supported and offer several options for using existing memory when upgrading to the R50/R5U.
What is contained in the model conversion shipment group?
The 9XX/RXX uniprocessor upgrades to the Model R50/R5U contain some or all of the following items:
What additional features will I need to order?
Upgraded machines must contain the same or equivalent base features as the Model R50/R5U at the conclusion of the upgrade.
These items must be installed or available with the upgrade:
If additional hardware is required for the upgrade, it must be purchased with the upgrade or be available at the time of the upgrade. It will be necessary for an IBM representative to go on site to determine the specific RISC system configuration. This is necessary to ensure all of the required engineering prerequisites are sent in conjunction with the upgrade kit. The specifics regarding the prerequisite information required will be forwarded to the local IBM office upon receipt of a Model R50/R5U upgrade order.
Which of my existing features are supported?
Some features on the existing 900 series, R10, R20, R21, R24, R30/R3U, and R40/R4U models are not supported on the Model R50/R5U. Refer to the Feature Matrix for a listing of supported and non-supported features.
Battery backup (#6150) is only supported if it was installed before ordering the upgrade.
Before accepting your order, IBM will advise you of all features that will not be supported as a result of upgrading your machine. Non-supported features remain your property and are not returned to IBM.
Memory: IBM offers reduced-price memory for customers who are converting from an installed 9XX, R10, R20, R21, R24, R30, or R40 system to a R50/R5U. Customers may order via RPQ 8A1072 and one or more of the following feature numbers: 4185, 4186 or 4187 reduced-price memory for their R50/R5U. The previously installed memory will become the property of IBM upon completion of the upgrade.
