#### Sun Fire X4470 Server Supported Components and Capabilities

The following table describes the components and capabilities of the Sun Fire X4470 Server.

Table 1-2 Sun Fire X4470 Server Components and Capabilities

Component | X4470 Server
--- | ---
CPU | Supported configurations: Two processors installed in socket 0 and socket 2 Four processors installed in sockets 0 through 3 For the latest information on CPU specifications, go to the following web site and navigate to the appropriate page: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/sun-x86/overview/index.html
Memory | Up to eight memory riser modules are supported (two risers per CPU) in the server chassis. Each riser module supports eight RDIMMs, allowing up to sixteen RDIMMs per processor. A 2-socket system using four riser modules populated with 8-GB RDIMMs supports a maximum of 256 GB of system memory. A 4-socket system using eight riser modules populated with 8-GB RDIMMs supports a maximum of 512 GB of system memory.
Storage devices | For internal storage, the server chassis provides: Six 2.5-inch drive bays, accessible through the front panel. The supported drive interfaces for each bay depend on the host bus adapter (HBA) chosen. An optional slot-loading DVD+/-RW drive on front of the server, below the drive bays. This SATA DVD connects to a USB-SATA bridge, so that is appears to the system software as a USB storage device. One internal high-speed USB port on the motherboard. This port can hold a USB flash device for system booting.
USB 2.0 ports | Two front, two rear, and one internal
VGA ports | One front and one rear high-density DB-15 video port Note - The rear VGA port supports VESA Device Data Channel for monitor identification.
PCI Express 2.0 I/O slots | Ten PCI Express 2.0 slots that accommodate low-profile PCIe cards. All slots support x8 PCIe connectors. Two slots are also capable of supporting x16 PCIe connectors. Slots 0 and 9: x4 electrical interface Slots 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, and 8: x8 electrical interface Slots 3 and 5: x8 or x16 electrical interface (x16 connector) Note - PCI Express slots 3 and 5 will operate as x16 interfaces only when an x16 capable card is installed and the adjacent slot (4 or 6) is unpopulated.
Cluster card slot | One specialized slot dedicated for use in Sun Storage appliances. The Sun Fire X4470 does not support populating this slot with standard PCIe cards.
PCI Express I/O cards | For a list of I/O cards that are customer-orderable options, go to the following web site and navigate to the appropriate page: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/sun-x86/overview/index.html
Ethernet ports | Four 10/100/1000 RJ-45 GbE ports on rear panel Each Network Interface Controller (NIC) supports Intel QuickData Technology, Intel I/OAT, VMDq, PCI-SIG SR-IOV, IPSec offload, and LinkSec.
Service processor | Integrated Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), which supports the industry-standard IPMI feature set Supports remote KVMS, DVD and floppy over IP (optional license required) Includes serial port Supports Ethernet access to SP through a dedicated 10/100BaseT management port and optionally through one of the host GbE ports (sideband management)
Power supplies | Two hot-swappable power supplies, each with 2000 Watts capacity (from 200 Volts to 240 Volts), auto-ranging, light load efficiency mode and redundant over-subscription
Cooling fans | Six hot-swappable, redundant fans at chassis front (top-loading); redundant fans in each power supply
Management software | Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM)
