SQ200 Business Servers
The powerful mainframe for the entry- and medium-sized performance range
The models in the SQ200 series are a system platform which has been specially designed for medium-sized customers.
The combination of proven BS2000/OSD functionality with high-end Intel® Xeon® MP processors means that the Business Server SQ200 is the ideal basis to operate BS2000/OSD applications economically.
In the current stage it will be possible to run several guest systems in parallel on the SQ200 Business Server. In addition to business critical BS2000/OSD applications, Linux and Windows applications can be operated in their own guest systems and combined as required. As a result, users now have a powerful, stable consolidation and coexistence platform in the BS2000/OSD Business Server quality to which they are accustomed.
OSD Extended Configuration OSD/XC is the BS2000/OSD operating system package for Business Servers in the SQ Business Server line. The Business Servers SQ200 are supported by the new BS2000 OSD/XC V4.1 which consist of the operating system BS2000/OSD-BC V8.0 and a range of system-related software products.
Twelve models are configured as complete HW/SW packages with all the components required to support a comfortable and efficient BS2000 operation. In addition to internal hard disks (e.g. ETERNUS JX40) which are connected directly to the SQ200 via RAID controller, and a very compact tape cartridge unit for automated backup (e.g. ETERNUS LT40), storage systems in the mid-range and enterprise ETERNUS DX series (e.g. ETERNUS DX400 or DX8000) can be connected via Fibre Channel.
Likewise, Tape Libraries (e.g. SCALAR i500) and the tape storage virtualization solution ETERNUS CS High-End (e.g. ETERNUS CS50) can be connected via Fibre Channel.
SQ200 Business Server provide the usage of additional Application units (AU) and the SAN Integration Package (SIP) as an option, that enables the usage of a multitude of usage scenarios and easy SAN integration of FC peripherals
