<p>The capability to install Linux<sup>®</sup> on the Integrated xSeries<sup>®</sup> Server
|
||
|
|
and Integrated xSeries Adapter
|
||
|
|
is provided by products 5722-SS1 option 29 and 5722-LSV. You can find information
|
||
|
|
specific to Linux integration
|
||
|
|
on iSeries™ at
|
||
|
|
the Web site: </p>
|

<p><a href="http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/integratedxseries/linux/" target="_blank">http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/integratedxseries/linux/</a><img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside information center" /> </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The Intel-based hardware on which iSeries Linux integration support can be installed
|
||
|
|
is the same hardware that is utilized by the iSeries i5/OS Integrated Server Support
|
||
|
|
(5722-SS1 option 29) product, and the software that provides the integration
|
||
|
|
support for Windows<sup>®</sup> also provides integration support for Linux.
|
||
|
|
The Integrated xSeries Server
|
||
|
|
is hardware that has been designed to allow customers to simplify their server
|
||
|
|
environment by reducing the hardware footprint of their Intel-based servers,
|
||
|
|
and by providing a degree of centralized management. The Integrated xSeries Server
|
||
|
|
is installed inside the frame of the iSeries, or an iSeries tower, and does not consume the
|
||
|
|
space that a standalone server box might. You can find more information about
|
||
|
|
the Integrated xSeries Server
|
||
|
|
at the Web site: </p>
|
||
|
|
<p><a href="http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/integratedxseries/ixs_overview.html" target="_blank">http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/integratedxseries/ixs_overview.html</a><img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside information center" /> </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Linux implementations on the Integrated xSeries platforms make use of virtual
|
||
|
|
services provided by <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span>,
|
||
|
|
and have some other differences compared with Linux running on a PC that it
|
||
|
|
is helpful to be aware of. For a discussion of what is different about integrated
|
||
|
|
servers you might want to read the <a href="../rzahq/concepts.htm">Concepts</a> article in the Windows environment
|
||
|
|
on iSeries topic.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>There is extensive documentation on the Features and benefits of Windows and Linux integration
|
||
|
|
on iSeries at
|
||
|
|
the following Web site: </p>

|
||
|
|
<p>It is strongly recommend that you review this documentation if you are
|
||
|
|
not already familiar with the product.</p>
