Introduction
The IBM BladeCenter chassis covered in this guide are those that are currently marketed in North America. The intent of this guide is to provide power information for installation planning of IBM BladeCenter. This guide is best used in softcopy form since it contains hyperlinks for navigation. This document can still be used in hardcopy as reference only. You can obtain the latest copy of this document by sending an email to [email protected] (put “Latest BC Power Guide for NA” in the subject line).
How to Use This Guide
The “IBM BladeCenter Quick View” section provides links to the various chassis in addition to overview information. Power connections to the IBM BladeCenter chassis must be wired to comply with local and/or national electrical codes. Consult your local AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) to ensure compliance. Important Notice: All wiring examples provided in this document are based on nameplate label ratings for the systems. IBM BladeCenter chassis are designed with separate, isolated power domains. Throughout this document, power domains are color coded. Here is an example of the power domain color coding: Blue Indicates Power Domain One Brown/Burgundy Indicates Power Domain Two

(48A Derated) Derating, as used in this document, is to comply with National Electric Code (NEC) requirements. The requirement is to limit a circuit load to 80% of circuit capacity. For example, if a circuit has a 60 amp capacity the 80% derated load capacity is 48 amps.

Available Devices with single (base) power domain populated
Here is a list of available devices that can be powered by PMs 1 and 2. Note that I/O modules 7 to 10 are not powered by both PMs in the base power domain are supported only when all four power modules are installed.
Devicesa PM 1 (Std)
PM 2 (Std)
Blades 1-7 Yes Yes
I/O modules 1 & 2 (SM 1 & 2) Yes Yes
I/O modules 3 & 4 (SM 3 & 4) Yes Yes
I/O modules 7 & 8 (HSSM 1 & 2)b Yes
I/O modules 9 & 10 (HSSM 3 & 4)b Yes
Management Modules Yes Yes
a. SM = switch module; HSSM = high speed switch module.
b. I/O modules 7 to 10 are only supported when all four power modules are installed.

IBM BC-HT DC Terminal Block Wiring
Connection and disconnection of the IBM BC-HT from DC source must be done by a qualified electrician. Each dc terminal has four #M6 (0.25-inch) studs, one for -48 V dc, one for RETURN (RTN), and two for connecting the safety ground wire (GND). See page 14 in the “IBM BladeCenter HT Type 8740 and 8750 Installation and User's Guide” for further details on connecting DC power to the IBM BC-HT.

Advanced Management Module (AMM) Power Policies
IBM BladeCenter E, H, HT, S, T Power Policies
Basic Power Management (Non-redundant Mode) o Highest available power per Domain. o Possible power loss to some or all blades in the event of a power fault.
Power Module Redundancy (Fully Redundant Mode) o No throttling will occur, even if a power supply fails. o Blades allowed to power on are limited by capacity of one power module per Domain
Power Module Redundancy with Blade Throttling Allowed (Fully Redundant Mode With Throttling) o All Blades will be powered on. o Possible power loss to some or all blades in the event of a power fault and blades cannot be
throttled below the available power limit. Additional Power Policies for IBM BladeCenter S
AC Power Source Redundancy o Chassis powered from two separate sources (circuits)
AC Power Source Redundancy with Blade Throttling Allowed o Chassis powered from two separate sources (circuits) with throttling
