IBM has extended its integrated server solutions by leveraging industry-standard iSCSI technology to attach selected IBM BladeCenter and System x models to the IBM i platform. iSCSI Host Bus Adapters (iSCSI HBAs) allow you to exploit IBM i virtual storage, networking, and tape resources to help simplify the operations of your Windows Server system infrastructure.

System x and BladeCenter servers attaced to IBM i on Power through an iSCSI network.

See the IBM i iSCSI Solution Guide for the hardware required and the installation process.

View the BladeCenter or System x iSCSI Installation Overview Flash animations for an overview of the iSCSI attached server installation process. These animations also provide a conceptual overview of the various hardware and software components and show how they work together in the IBM i iSCSI solution.

The following IBM i PTF groups are used to deliver this enhancement:
