  • Optional support for high-performance PCIe-attached NVMe Flash Storage solid-state drives (SSDs) can significantly improve I/O performance.
  • PCI Express 3.0 I/O adapter slots that improve the theoretical maximum bandwidth by almost 100% (8 GTps per link using 128b/130b encoding) compared to the previous generation of PCI Express 2.0 (5 GTps per link using 8b/10b encoding).
  • With Intel Integrated I/O Technology, the PCI Express 3.0 controller is integrated into the Intel Xeon processor. This integration helps reduce I/O latency and increase overall system performance.
  • Support for up to four graphics processing units (GPUs) and co-processors to maximize computing power.
  • Energy-efficient electronic components help lower operational costs, including highly efficient 900 W AC and 1400 W AC power supplies with 80 PLUS Platinum certification.

Agile system design

The server provides many scalability and flexibility features:

  • Innovative module "book" design for each of the three subsystems: Compute Books, Storage Book, and I/O Books. Front and rear access means that you can easily scale the system by adding components without removing the entire server from the rack.
  • The modular book design also allows clients to create the configuration that fits their application and environment needs, which reduces acquisition costs while giving them the flexibility to grow and modify their configuration later.
  • The book design also means that subsystem upgrades are simpler, quicker to perform, and have a lower impact on the rest of the server.
  • Using 64 GB LRDIMMs, the server supports up to 12 TB of memory.
  • Up to 32x 1.8-inch SSD bays, or up to 16x 2.5-inch bays, provide a flexible and scalable all-in-one platform to meet your increasing demands.
  • Offers up to 22 PCIe slots plus two dedicated Mezzanine LOM (ML2) adapter slots. Most slots are PCIe 3.0 to maximize I/O scalability.
  • PCIe slots are implemented in I/O Books to maximize modularity. Choose from Half-length I/O Books or Full-length I/O Books, depending on the adapters that you need to deploy.
  • Most components are common between the four-socket x3850 X6 and eight-socket x3950 X6, making for a simple upgrade path with minimal parts on the floor.

Resilient platform

The server provides many features to simplify serviceability and increase system uptime:

  • Upward Integration Modules for standard hypervisors enable the creation and management of policies to maintain high availability of virtual machines and concurrent updating of the system firmware, with no impact on application performance or availability.
  • Advanced Processor Recovery allows the system to automatically switch access and control of networking, management, and storage in the event of a processor 1 failure, providing higher availability and productivity.
  • Advanced Page Retire proactively protects applications from corrupted pages in memory, which is crucial for scaling memory to terabytes.
  • Redundant bit steering, memory mirroring, and memory rank sparing for redundancy in the event of a non-correctable memory failure.
  • Intel Execute Disable Bit functionality can help prevent certain classes of malicious buffer overflow attacks when combined with a supported operating system.
  • Intel Trusted Execution Technology provides enhanced security through hardware-based resistance to malicious software attacks, allowing an application to run in its own isolated space, which is protected from all other software running on a system.
  • Redundant Intel Platform Controller Hub (PCH) connections to the processors allow the platform to maintain access to networking, storage, and server management during a processor failure.
  • Hot-swap drives support RAID redundancy for data protection and greater system uptime.
  • Hot-swap I/O Books enabling you to install or replace adapters while the server is still running.
  • Tool-less lid-less design provides front and rear access for easy upgrades and serviceability. There is no need to pull the server out of the rack to access internal components.
  • Hot-swap power supplies and hot-swap dual-motor redundant fans provide availability for mission-critical applications.
  • An LCD diagnostics panel that is combined with individual light path diagnostic LEDs quickly lead the technician to failed (or failing) components, which simplifies servicing, speeds up problem resolution, and helps improve system availability.
  • Proactive Platform Alerts (including PFA and SMART alerts): Processors, voltage regulators, memory, internal storage (SAS/SATA HDDs and SSDs, NVMe SSDs, flash storage adapters), fans, power supplies, RAID controllers, and server ambient and sub-component temperatures. Alerts can be surfaced through the system IMM to managers such as Lenovo XClarity Administrator, VMware vCenter, and Microsoft System Center.

Upgrading Compute Books

With the x3950 X6, machine type 6241, Lenovo supports upgrading the server processors by simply by replacing the Compute Books. The process to upgrade is made very simple because of the innovative book design of the x3850 X6.

Supported upgrades are:

  • E7 v2 processors to E7 v3 processors with DDR3 DIMMs (optionally keep existing memory)
  • E7 v2 processors to E7 v3 processors with DDR4 DIMMs (new DDR4 DIMMs required)
  • E7 v2 processors to E7 v4 processors (new DDR4 DIMMs required)
  • E7 v3 processors with DDR3 to E7 v4 processors (new DDR4 DIMMs required)
  • E7 v3 processors with DDR4 to E7 v4 processors (optionally keep existing memory)

Notes:

  • Upgrades to E7 v3 and v4 processors are only supported with machine type 6241. If you want to upgrade an X6 server with machine type 3837, contact your local representative.
  • eXFlash DIMMs (now withdrawn) are not supported with TruDDR4 memory; Only DDR3 memory is supported
  • Intel Xeon E7 v3 & v4 processors require minimum firmware levels. Consult the documentation that is included with the Compute Books.
  • Compute books with E7 v4 processors do not support DDR3 memory
  • If you upgrade from E7 v3 processors with DDR4 to E7 v4 processors, you can transfer the 2133 MHz DDR4 memory DIMMs to the new compute books. If you also want to add additional memory to the E7 v4 compute book, it is supported to use either 2133 MHz or 2400 MHz DDR4 memory DIMMs. It is supported to mix 2133 MHz and 2400 MHz DIMMs in the same compute book.

If you plan to use your existing DDR3 memory to upgrade to a Compute Books with v3 processors (Compute Books with v4 processors do not support DDR3 memory), the process to upgrade is as follows:

  1. Purchase Compute Books to replace the existing Compute Books
  2. Check and if necessary, upgrade all firmware to at least the minimum levels needed to support the new processors
  3. Power off the server and remove the existing Compute Books
  4. Transfer all DDR3 memory DIMMs to the new Compute Books
  5. Reinstall the new Compute Books

If you plan to upgrade to TruDDR4 memory, then you should also order the appropriate memory DIMMs to match your workload requirements.

Processor options

The x3950 X6 supports up to eight Intel Xeon E7 processors, either E7 v4 or E7 v3. Processors are installed in Compute Books, one processor in each Compute Book. The following figure shows the components of the Compute Book:

  • One processor
  • A total of 24 DIMM slots, 12 on each side of the book
  • Two hot-swap dual-motor fans that are mounted on the front of the book

The x3950 X6 supports four, six, or eight Compute Books. Other combinations are not supported.

Each Compute Book is installed in the front of the server, as shown in the following figure.

Compute Book
Figure 4. Compute Book

The following table shows the processor options, grouped as follows. Each option includes the processor installed in a Compute Book:

  • E7-8800 v4 processors in Compute Books with TruDDR4 support
  • E7-8800 v3 processors in Compute Books with DDR3 support
  • E7-8800 v3 processors in Compute Books with TruDDR4 support

Note: Compute Books with E7-4800 processors are supported only in a four-socket x3850 X6 server and cannot be used in an x3950 X6 server.

The table also shows the maximum memory bus speed each processor supports plus which server models have each processor standard. If there is no corresponding where-used model for a particular processor, this processor is only available through CTO.

‡ The first feature code is for the first Compute Book. The second feature code is for all additional Compute Books
† The processors support two memory modes, RAS mode (also known as lockstep mode) and Performance mode (also known as independent mode). In Performance mode, the SMI2 link operates at twice the memory bus speed shown.

Memory options

The x3950 X6 (6241) supports either DDR3 or TruDDR4 memory, depending on the Compute Books used in the server.

Lenovo TruDDR4 Memory uses the highest quality components that are sourced from Tier 1 DRAM suppliers and only memory that meets the strict requirements of Lenovo is selected. It is compatibility tested and tuned to maximize performance and reliability. TruDDR4 Memory has a unique signature that is programmed into the DIMM that enables System x® servers to verify whether the memory that is installed is qualified or supported by Lenovo. Because TruDDR4 Memory is authenticated, certain extended memory performance features can be enabled to extend performance over industry standards.

Lenovo DDR3 memory is compatibility tested and tuned for optimal System x performance and throughput. Lenovo memory specifications are integrated into the light path diagnostics for immediate system performance feedback and optimum system uptime.

From a service and support standpoint, Lenovo TruDDR4 and DDR3 memory automatically assumes the system warranty, and Lenovo provides service and support worldwide.

The x3950 X6 supports TruDDR4 memory operating at speeds up to 1866 MHz and DDR3 memory at speeds up to 1600 MHz. Note that even though supported TruDDR4 DIMMs are rated at 2400 MHz or 2133 MHz, when used in the x3950 X6, they operate at speeds up to 1866 MHz.

The x3950 X6 supports up to 192 DIMMs when all processors are installed, 24 DIMMs per processor. Each processor has four memory channels that are implemented using Scalable Memory Interface generation 2 (SMI2) chips, and the server implements three DIMMs per channel. The processor and the corresponding memory DIMM slots are on the Compute Book.

The following table lists the memory options that are available for x3950 X6.

** 00D5024 is supported only in Compute Books with E7 v2 processors
† 00KH391 is supported only in Compute Books with E7-8880 v3 or E7-8890 v3 processors; no other memory DIMM is supported if 00KH391 is installed

The following rules apply when selecting the memory configuration:

  • The server supports RDIMMs and LRDIMMs.
  • DDR4 Compute Books support mixing 2133 MHz and 2400 MHz DDR4 memory.
  • Mixing different types of memory (RDIMMs and LRDIMMs) is not supported.
  • Mixing different generations of memory (DDR3 and TruDDR4) is not supported
  • The maximum number of ranks per one DDR3 channel is six with RDIMMs or 24 with LRDIMMs.
  • In RAS (lockstep) mode, DIMMs must be installed in a pair.
  • The maximum quantity of DIMMs that can be installed in the server depends on the number of processors, DIMM type, rank, and operating voltage, as shown in the "Max. qty supported" row in the following table.
  • All DIMMs in the server operate at the same speed, which is determined as the lowest value of one of the following options:
    • Memory speed that is supported by the specific processor.
    • Lowest of maximum operating speeds for selected memory configuration that depends on rated speed, operating voltage, and quantity of DIMMs per channel, as shown under "Maximum operating speed" section in the following table.

The following table shows the characteristics of the supported DIMMs. Tables cells that are highlighted with a gray background indicate that the server supports higher memory frequencies or larger memory capacity (or both) than the Intel processor specification defines.

Memory speed: In performance mode, memory channels operate independently, and the SMI2 link operates at twice the DDR3 speed. In RAS mode, two channels operate synchronously, and the SMI2 link operates at the DDR3 speed.

The following memory protection technologies are supported:

  • ECC
  • Chipkill (for x4-based memory DIMMs)
  • Redundant bit steering (Double Device Data Correction)
  • Memory mirroring
  • Memory rank sparing

Chipkill and Redundant Bit Steering are supported in RAS mode. Chipkill is supported in Performance mode.

If memory mirroring is used, DIMMs must be installed in pairs for Performance mode (minimum of one pair per each processor) and quads for RAS mode. DIMMs in the pair/quad must be identical in type and size.

If memory rank sparing is used, then a minimum of two single-rank or dual-rank DIMMs must be installed per populated channel (the DIMMs do not need being identical). In rank sparing mode, one rank of a DIMM in each populated channel is reserved as spare memory. The size of a rank varies depending on the DIMMs that are installed.

Internal storage

The server supports 1.8-inch solid-state drives in the SSD units and 2.5-inch SSDs and HDDs. Drives are installed in the Storage Book. The x3950 X6 has two Storage Books.

Each Storage Book supports the following configurations:

  • 4x 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays
  • 8x 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays
  • 4x 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays + 8x 1.8-inch hot-swap SSD bays

The NVMe PCIe SSD Extender Adapter is a PCIe adapter that simply routes the PCIe 3.0 x8 signal from the slot in the Storage Book, splits the signal to two x4 links, and routes those via cables to the drive backplane. The extender adapter is shown in the following figure.

NVMe PCIe SSD Extender Adapter
Figure 7. NVMe PCIe SSD Extender Adapter

One adapter is required for every two drives installed in the Storage Book. Since there are only two PCIe slots in the Compute Book, only two adapters can be installed and therefore only four NVMe drives can be installed in a Storage Book.

Internal backup units

The server does not support internal tape drive options.

The server supports up to 22 PCIe slots plus two dedicated Mezzanine LOM slots (24 total) as follows:

  • In each of the two Storage Books (standard in all models): Two PCIe 3.0 x8 slots for supported internal RAID controllers and SAS HBAs
  • In each of the two Primary I/O Books (standard in all models):
    • Two PCIe 3.0 x16 slots (x16-wired), half length, full height, up to 75 W of power
    • One PCIe 3.0 x16 (x8-wired), half length, full height, up to 75 W of power
    • One mezzanine LOM 2 (ML2) slot for network adapters with the new ML2 form factor (PCIe 3.0 x8)
  • Four optional I/O Books, each with three slots, all full height. Optional I/O Books are hot-swap capable.

The following figure shows the Primary I/O Book with the air baffle raised to show the internals.

Primary I/O Book
Figure 8. Primary I/O Book

Optional I/O Books can be either of:

  • Half-length I/O Book:
    • Two PCIe 3.0 x8 slots (x8 wired)
    • One PCIe 3.0 x16 slot (x16 wired)
  • Full-length I/O Book:
    • Two PCIe 3.0 x16 (x16 wired)
    • One PCIe 2.0 x8 slot (x4 wired)

Hot-swap support

In order for an I/O Book to be hot-swappable, all adapters that are installed in the book must support hot-swap and the operating system must also support hot-swap. These operating systems support hot-swap:

  • Windows Server 2008 R2
  • Windows Server 2012
  • Windows Server 2012 R2

The adapters listed in the following table support hot-swap.

* Hot-swap is only supported when the adapter is in pNIC mode. Hot-swap is not supported in either vNIC mode (Virtual Fabric mode or Switch Independent mode).

Optional I/O books

The use of two Optional I/O Books requires six processors to be installed. The usage of all four Optional I/O Books requires all eight processors to be installed.

Figure 9. Half-length I/O Book and the Full-length I/O Book

The following figure shows the Half-length I/O Book.

Half-length I/O Book
Figure 10. Half-length I/O Book

Each slot in the Half-length I/O Book and the Full-length I/O Book supplies up to 75 W of power.

The Full-length I/O Book also includes two auxiliary power connectors. With the usage of these connectors and the supplied power cords, the I/O book supports one double-wide adapter up to 300 W. The auxiliary power connectors are as follows:

  • One 2x4 power connector, which supplies up to 150 W of additional power to the adapter
  • One 2x3 power connector, which supplies up to 75 W of additional power to the adapter

The combined power consumption of all the adapters that are installed in the Full-length I/O Book cannot exceed 300 W.

Note: The 2x3 connector is intended to be used only when one adapter is installed in the first x16 slot (the up-most slot in the following figure), either requiring 225 W or 300 W of power. The location of the 2x3 connector prevents an adapter from being installed in the other x16 slot.

Full-length I/O Book
Figure 11. Full-length I/O Book

The Half-length I/O Book installs flush with the Primary I/O Book at the rear of the server. The Full-length I/O Book, when installed, adds a 99 mm (3.9 in.) mechanical extension to the base length dimension of the chassis.

The following figure shows a Full-length I/O Book and a Half-length I/O Book installed in the server.

GPU adapters and co-processors

The server supports the co-processors and graphics processing units (GPUs) that are listed in the following table. Each is installed in a Full-length I/O Book. No other adapter can be installed in the Full-length I/O Book. The Full-length I/O Book includes the necessary auxiliary power cables. The maximum supported column also indicates which slots each adapter is supported in. For slot locations see the Slot locations section.

Notes:

  • These adapters are not available through CTO and cannot be shipped installed in the server because they are installed in the Full-length I/O Book, which extends beyond the rear of the chassis (see Figure 12 in the I/O expansion options). These adapters must be shipped separately from the server. Order the adapter and Full-length I/O Book as separate options.
  • If an NVIDIA GPU is installed, the maximum system memory that can be installed is 1 TB.

† 2 hypervisor keys are supported only if the x3950 X6 is configured to be partitioned, where the two halves of the server operate as two independent four-socket servers. However, CTO orders can include only one hypervisor key.

Systems management

The server contains Integrated Management Module 2.1 (IMM2), which provides advanced service-processor control, monitoring, and an alerting function. If an environmental condition exceeds a threshold or if a system component fails, the IMM2 lights LEDs to help you diagnose the problem, records the error in the event log, and alerts you to the problem. The IMM2 also provides a virtual presence capability for remote server management capabilities.

The IMM2 provides remote server management through industry-standard interfaces:

  • Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) Version 2.0
  • Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Version 3
  • Common Information Model (CIM)
  • Web browser

The remote presence provides the following functions:

  • Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 75 Hz with up to 23 bits per pixel colors, regardless of the system state
  • Remotely accessing the server by using the keyboard and mouse from a remote client
  • Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote client, and mapping ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by the server
  • Uploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server as a virtual drive

The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM restarts the server when the IMM detects an operating-system hang condition. A system administrator can use the blue-screen capture feature to assist in determining the cause of the hang condition.

Rack installation

All models of the x3950 X6 include a rail kit and cable management bracket kit for installation in a 19-inch rack cabinet. The contents of the kits are shown in the following figure.
