IBM Redbooks Product Guide
The IBM BladeCenter HS22 is a two-socket blade server running Intel Xeon processors. It is ideal for
mainstream business applications including as a virtualization engine, and is compatible with the IBM
BladeCenter H, E, S, and HT chassis. The HS22 supports up to two Intel Xeon 5500 or 5600 series
multi-core processors, 12 DIMMs modules, two hot-swap drives, two PCI Express connectors, and one
internal USB connector for embedded virtualization.
The HS22 is shown in Figure 1.

Did you know?
IBM BladeCenter HS22 delivered leadership two-processor, single-node result for SPECjEnterprise2010
— 2,752.06 Enterprise jAppServer Operations Per Second (SPECjEnterprise2010 EjOPS). This score was
achieved using the IBM BladeCenter HS22 as the application server running IBM WebSphere Application
Server V7 as the middle tier and the IBM System x3850 X5 as the database server running IBM DB2 9.7
Enterprise Server. With this SPECjEnterprise2010 result, IBM demonstrates its ability to provide both
software and hardware for an optimal solution in the middle tier and in the back-end database layer, and
also to deliver a robust solution for clients’ complex workloads.
