The IBM BladeCenter LS21, part number 797161G, is a blade server platform designed to enhance data centre efficiency and performance. It is powered by a Second-Generation AMD Opteron 2218 HE 2.6 GHz processor, which delivers robust processing capabilities while maintaining energy efficiency. The HE in the processor name stands for High Efficiency, meaning this unit is well-suited for environments where reduced power consumption is critical without sacrificing performance.
This specific model, identified as the 7971 variation, is optimized for maximum computational tasks and comes in a blade form factor, making it a suitable choice for space-constrained server environments. Designed for use in BladeCenter chassis, the LS21 provides flexibility and scalability not commonly found in non-blade servers. Its architecture allows users to easily add or replace blades according to their evolving infrastructure needs.
The server supports none of its own storage out of the box but fits into a larger network storage architecture, leveraging the broader BladeCenter ecosystem. The unit features a multi-core processor that enhances overall throughput when managing virtualisation, database applications, or intensive computational tasks. The LS21 can also be expanded with additional memory modules, and paired with networking fabrics as needed, making it adaptable for different enterprise workloads. It also comes with support for IBM’s robust system management software, increasing manageability and ease of operation.
