Configuring POWER7+ 710/720/730/740
If you know “C” model Power 710, 720,
730 & 740, then you already have 95+%
of the “D” model information you need
What’s new:
– New POWER7+ new processor feat codes, new GHz
– New memory new memory feature codes, bigger max
– #EB34 for IBM i 6.1 and native I/O
– Updated/expanded EXP30 Ultra SSD I/O Drawer
– Some additional I/O
What’s the same
– Memory rules / structure / risers
– Backplane, integrated SAS controller, PCIe slots, GX++ slots, risers
– All the existing I/O (with some additions being announced)

Power 750 / 760 Performance Considerations
Power 750+ / 760 systems design / topology is
similar to Power 770 with 6 core sockets
–Similar workload characteristics
–Bandwidths between cores is higher than those
between Sockets / Nodes
–Latency across Sockets / Nodes is higher than
latencies between cores
Memory Bandwidth per core
–Power 750+ = Power 750
–Power 760 < Power 750
• Power 760 has more cores per socket

POWER7+ uses on-chip hardware accelerator to do some of the
compression / decompression work. There is a knee-of-cure
relationship for CPU resource required for memory expansion
– Even with POWER7+ hardware accelerator there is some resource required.
– The more memory expansion done, the more CPU resource required
Knee varies depending on how compressible memory contents are

Additional Rules/Insights
• Permanent enablement available either with new server order or with MES order
• There is no mechanism to move enablement to a different server
• Enablement does not mean function has to be used. Enablement allows Act Mem Exp to be used

• WAN – any phone line connection –
may have to write a program on 6.1 to talk to a
program on 7.1 ... Fax/400 a challenge
• Hardware Crypto card
Note: VIOS on 6.1 supports many LAN adapters, NPIV, AMS, VMControl, etc
Note: IBM i 7.1 supports WAN and Crypto cards natively, but does not virtualize
Note: VIOS does not virtualize RDX
