<h3 id="rzahqscattixaixs">iSCSI attached xSeries and IBM BladeCenter servers</h3>
<p>i5/OS&trade; represents iSCSI attached xSeries&reg; and IBM&reg; BladeCenter&trade; servers similar to the way it represents
IXS and IXA attached xSeries servers. However, the iSCSI technology requires
additional i5/OS objects and configuration information that were not required for
IXS and IXA attached xSeries servers. Since iSCSI attached servers are connected
to the iSeries&trade; system with an Ethernet network (rather than the system bus/HSL
attachment that is used with the IXS and IXA), additional configuration information
is required to identify and communicate with the xSeries or IBM BladeCenter server on the network. In addition,
since iSCSI attached servers can coexist with other systems on the Ethernet
network, security of communications and data flows between i5/OS and the iSCSI
attached servers can be a concern. The following diagram shows how iSCSI
attached servers are represented by i5/OS.</p>
