Abstract The System x3400 M3 servers are self-contained, high-performance, 5 U tower systems designed for web and business server applications in remote or distributed environments. These servers are highly scalable in configuration, performance, and availability. They offer two-way SMP power with the latest Intel Xeon 5600 series processors, a dual connector eight-port SAS/ SATA RAID controller on hot-swap models, an embedded Gigabit Ethernet controller, and six PCI Express 2.0 slots. These servers support SATA or SAS HDDs. Note: This product has been withdrawn from marketing and is no longer available for ordering from IBM. Introduction The System x3400 M3 servers are self-contained, high-performance, 5 U tower systems designed for web and business server applications in remote or distributed environments. These servers are highly scalable in configuration, performance, and availability. They offer two-way SMP power with the latest Intel Xeon 5600 series processors, a dual connector 8-port SAS/ SATA RAID controller on hot-swap models, an embedded Gigabit Ethernet controller, and six PCI Express 2.0 slots. These servers support SATA or SAS HDDs. These servers are flexible tower models that deliver the best blend of power, manageability, expandability, and serviceability. They meet the requirements of server applications in the small-to-medium businesses that need an affordable general-purpose network server. These servers fit into business environments where tower configurations are required. Figure 1 shows the IBM® System x3400 M3. Figure 1. The IBM System x3400 M3 Did you know? The System x3400 M3 server supports optional spare DIMMs, memory mirroring, and RAID-0, RAID-1, and RAID-1 E support standard with optional RAID-5, RAID-6, RAID-10, and RAID-50 available. It features large amounts of internal expansion and I/ O support. Comprehensive systems management tools such.

PCI Network Pass- Through: System was tested using PCI pass-through where a network adapter was given to the SLES 11 SP3 x86-64 guest. The Intel® PRO/1000 PM (82571 EB) Dual- Port Gigabit Ethernet adapter was used in this testing. VM Driver Pack: All FV guests were tested with PV drivers installed. The SLES 11 SP3 drivers are included with the OS. The Windows 2012 drivers are available from ( VMDP- WIN-2.1.exe and the virtio network drivers were used during testing.
