Towers, racks, and high-speed link 261
Draft Document for Review October 18, 2004 5486Towr.fm
The mounting for the first 15 disk units is included in the #5074 PCI Expansion
Tower (base). The mounting for the next 30 disk units is optional by ordering a
#5101 30 Disk Unit Expansion.
The #5074 also supports up to two removable media devices (internal tape,
CD-ROM, or DVD-RAM). On new orders, select one line cord with each #5074
PCI Expansion Tower.
#5097 1.8M Expansion Tower
The #5097 is a I/O expansion tower that can contain up to 90 disk units, has 28
PCI slots and has four removable media bays. The #5097 is the result of a
conversion from a #8093 Optional Base 1.8m I/O tower to the #5097.Each #5097
is essentially a #5094 PCI-X Expansion Tower (bottom enclosure) and a #5074
PCI Expansion Tower (top enclosure) with side covers and casters removed,
placed in a 1.8M rack. Each #5097 counts as one #5094 and one #5074 towards
the system model maximums.
#5105 Dual Line Cords - I/O Tower
The #5105 Dual Line Cords - I/O Tower provides dual line cord capability for a
#5074 and the top units in an #8079 or #8093. Two #14XX line cords must be
ordered for each tower with a #5105, or top unit when ordered as an initial order.
No batteries are shipped, and two 840W power supplies are shipped with this
configuration. When ordering a #5105 as a simple Miscellaneous Equipment
Specification (MES) against an existing #5074 or #8079/#8093 top unit, one
additional #14XX line cord is required to be ordered (for a total of two line cords).
Existing batteries are removed, and the 765W power supplies are removed and
replaced with two 840W power supplies.
The #5074s mounted in an #0551 rack (withdrawn from marketing in first half
2002) support the #5101 30 Disk Unit Expansion feature. If the #5074 has a
#5101 30 Disk Unit Expansion installed, the #5101 must be converted to a #5111
(no parts required).
OS/400 V5R1 or later and supporting PTFs are required. Refer to Informational
