| Scalability |
One management node is required with a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 512 total nodes. This total can include up to 32 storage nodes. Therefore, the minimum configuration includes 5 nodes (1 management node and 4 compute nodes). The maximum configuration would include 512 nodes including compute, storage and management nodes. Larger configurations are available via a special bid process. |
| Services |
Cluster 1350 hardware installation included at no charge |
| |
Linux cluster software services and Support Line for Linux Clusters are available as optional fee-based services |
| Warranty |
Basic limited warranty on most IBM and non-IBM components: three year, next business day, on-site support. Some xSeries 335 and e325 models have a one year warranty. Enhanced warranty plans are available. |
