Emulex 16Gb FC Single-port and Dual-port HBAs for IBM System x 3
Features
The Emulex 16Gb FC Single-port and Dual-port HBAs have the following features:
Maximum performance with over 1 million input/output operations per second (IOPS) to support larger
server virtualization deployments and scalable cloud initiatives, and performance to match new
multicore processors, SSDs, and faster server host bus architectures.
Frame-level multiplexing and out-of-order frame reassembly increases link efficiency and maximizes
HBA performance.
vScale performance and scalability: Multicore ASIC engine with eight cores supports 255 VFs, 1024
MSI-X, and 8192 logins/open exchanges for maximum VM density.
2x management functionality, which takes half the time to manage with OneCommand Manager.
Unique OneCommand Manager plug-in for VMware vCenter for centralized management of adapters
within a VMware environment.
GreenState power efficiency reduces data center power consumption and associated operational
expenses by delivering exceptional power to port ratios.
End-to-end data protection with hardware parity, CRC, ECC, and other advanced error checking and
correcting algorithms, which ensures that data is safe from corruption.
BlockGuard data integrity offload ensures high performance and end-to-end data integrity.
vEngine CPU offload lowers the processor burden on the host server, enabling support for more VMs.
Rock-solid reliability and thermal characteristics, which are essential for mission-critical, cloudm and
virtualized applications.
Support for Message Signaled Interrupts eXtended (MSI-X) improves host utilization and enhances
application performance.
Support for 16 Gb, 8 Gb, and 4 Gb FC devices.
Comprehensive virtualization capabilities with support for N
Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) and Virtual
Fabric.
Host-to-fabric Fibre Channel Security Protocol (FC-SP) authentication.
A common driver model allows a single driver to support all Emulex HBAs on a given OS.
Reduces the number of cards, cables, and PCIe slots required.
Exceptional performance per watt and price/performance ratios.
Integrates seamlessly into existing SANs.
Allows application of SAN best practices, tools, and processes with virtual server deployments.
Ensures data availability and data integrity.
Universal boot capability allows the appropriate boot environment to be automatically selected for any
given hardware.
Boot from SAN capability reduces the system management costs and increases uptime.
Detailed and real-time event logging and tracing enables quick diagnosis of SAN problems.
The beaconing feature flashes the HBA LEDs, simplifying their identification within server racks.
The environmental monitoring feature helps optimize SAN availability.
