Power and Space Consumption

The Linux on Intel servers selected in this example are functionally eligible servers considered for consolidation to a System z running at low utilization such that the composite utilization is approximately 5%. The utilization rate assumed for System z EC is 90%.

This is for illustration only, actual power and space reductions, if any, will vary according to the actual servers selected for consolidation.

In a consolidation, the System z9 EC may provide up to 4 times the same work in the same space!and, may provide up to 12 times the work for the same power consumption!

1.Hardware costs: By moving workload from general purpose processors to zIIP, zAAP and IFL processors (higher cost to lower cost processors).

2.Software Costs: license/maintenance costs based on number of and usage of general purpose central processors and specialty engines can reduce # of CP’s.

No z/OS software charges based on zIIP, zAAP and IFL processors or usage.

Why do zIIPs, zAAPs and IFLs Reduce Cost?

SOD – January 9 2007 - To replace both the z/OS.e operating system and the NALC pricing metric with the zNALC pricing metric. IBM intends:► For z/OS.e Version 1 Release 8 to be the final release of the z/OS.e operating system. ► To allow ordering of z/OS.e V1.8 until the planned withdrawal from marketing in October

2007. IBM intends to provide service for z/OS.e V1.8 until its planned end of service in Sept. 2009.

► To continue marketing of the NALC pricing metric until fourth quarter 2007 after which you cannot request NALC pricing for any OS/390 or z/OS license

* Performance is based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in a controlled environment. The actual throughput or performance that any user will experience will vary depending upon considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user’s job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and the workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will achieve throughput or performance improvements equivalent to the numbers stated here.
