SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server 11 for AMD64 & Intel64 with XEN Service Pack 2 for SUSE® SLES 11

Product Description
Up to four Fujitsu Server PRIMERGY CX250 S2 server nodes, each in a half-wide 1U form-factor, can be packaged into the PRIMERGY CX400 S2 Multi-Node server system, thus providing an aggregated scale-out performance of a total of 8 CPUs of the latest Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 v2 product family, 64 DIMMs and up to 24 storage drives in a condensed 2 U rack enclosure. The CX250 S2 dual socket server node combines high performance and attractive purchase costs with high energy efficiency while coming without any local fans or power supply units. Up to 16 high bandwidth memory modules provide a memory capacity of 1,024 GB per server node. With PCIe Gen3 IO slots and RAID enabled access to local storage drives, the CX250 S2 server easily plays its role as the standard two processor node for PRIMERGY CX400 S2, providing a great versatility to match even ambitious server load profiles for scale-out Cloud and HPC server farms and as slave node in Hadoop envirnoments for Big Data processing.
