8. See Fibre Channel Solutions Overview section for additional configuration information.
9. The 2108R3L SAN Data Gateway Router Ultra SCSI LVD port provides one integrated short-wave optical port and two SCSI ports for tape storage connections (LVD, HVD and
single-ended).
10. xSeries 230 includes a full-duplex, 10/100Mbps Ethernet PCI controller.
11. In a fault-tolerant networking environment, using the fault-tolerant software delivered with the Ethernet adapters of a single manufacturer is recommended. Installing fault-
tolerant solutions provided by multiple manufacturers may cause failures if the intermediate drivers provided with the adapters are not compatible.The onboard Ethernet is
AMD-based. Three of the optional PCI Ethernet adapters listed are Intel-based (P/N 06P3601, 06P3701, 22P4901).
12. The Wake on LAN function of this option is not supported by this server.
13. xSeries 230 includes two USB ports, two serial and one parallel port.
14. Due to homologation variances, modem availability may differ by country.
15 See Appendix E for details on Serial I/O Options and configuration limitations.
16. The Netfinity Advanced Systems Management Processor and Interconnect Bus integrated into xSeries 230 works with Netfinity Director to provide significant system
management function. When used with optional Netfinity Advanced System Management PCI Adapter (P/N 01K7209) and Netfinity Advanced System Management Interconnect
Cable Kit (P/N 03K9309) additional management and control of up to 12 service processors from a remote console through a single modem or LAN connection is possible.
17. Includes PCI adapter, Netfinity Advanced System Management Interconnect Cable Kit components and 56W AC adapter, which requires a separate power source. Provides
an integrated 10/100 Ethernet port and a PCMCIA slot to support optional Netfinity Advanced System Management Token-Ring Connection (P/N 36L9654).
18. A maximum quantity of one is supported.
19. Required for all xSeries servers containing a standard Advanced System Management Processor that are to be interconnected for system management support through a
LAN or modem connection. Optional Netfinity Advanced System Management PCI Adapter (P/N 01K7209) includes the contents of this option. Up to 12 service processors may
be interconnected (including standard and optional processors) with an aggregate connection length of no more than 91.4m (300ft). A customer-supplied Ethernet cable is
required for each interconnection.
20. Provides an ESCON MIC and a DB9 Serial Port. Cables are not included but are available through S/390 channels. Contact your IBM representative for additional information.
21. A maximum of two 9086001 adapters (installed in nonadjacent slots) are supported in a single server.
22. A 64-bit adapter installed into a 32-bit slot will transfer data at 32-bit rates. Adapters rated at 66MHz will operate at 33MHz when installed in a 33MHz slot.
23. PCI Fast/Wide Ultra SCSI Adapter (P/N 02K3454) provides one external 68-pin high density connector that supports external SCSI devices such as tape enclosures.

1. xSeries 230 includes a single 250W, hot-swap power supply and a single 9ft 110V power cord with an IEC 320-C13
connector on the system end and NEMA 5-15P on the other end. Power supply redundancy may be achieved with the
addition of optional 250W Hot-Swap Redundant Supply (P/N 33L3760). Hot-Swap Power Supply Upgrade Kit (P/N
37L6881) is required when optional power supplies are to be added. Redundancy for configurations of greater than
250W requires installation of a second optional supply. Additional power may be required when installing a SCSI
device in bay A or B. One or more additional power supplies are recommended for configurations exceeding four SL
hot-swap hard disk drives and two PCI adapters. To assist in determining when an additional power supply is required
to preserve redundancy, a “Non-Redundant LED” is a standard feature.
2. 250W Hot-Swap Redundant Power Supply (P/N 33L3760) includes a single 6ft power cord for connection to a low
voltage wall outlet. Hot-Swap Power Supply Expansion Kit (P/N 37L6881) must be installed prior to adding optional
power supplies.
3. Hot-Swap Power Supply Expansion Kit (P/N 37L6881) includes a hot-swap power backplane, terminated two-drop
LVD SCSI cable, and mounting brackets for DLT tape drives. Required when installing a second power supply or
devices in the 133mm (5.25in) HH bays.
4. For runtimes and UPS attributes see Appendix C: UPS Runtime Estimate.
5. Height is 3U. See Rack Cabinets and Options section for supported IBM racks.
6. Height is 5U. See Rack Cabinets and Options section for supported IBM racks.
7. xSeries 230 uses an SVGA controller (S3 Savage4 chipset) with 8MB of video memory.
8. Installation within a rack requires optional Monitor Compartment (P/N 94G7444).
9. Installation within a rack requires optional Netfinity Flat Panel Monitor Rack Mount Kit II (P/N 37L6888) and Netfinity
Rack Keyboard Tray (P/N 28L4707). A space saver keyboard may coexist within the same 28L4707 keyboard tray.
