11 GTS Server Consolidation and Virtualization Service Significant savings from x86 to mainframe implementations! Cost savings: Based on IBM s experience*, the following represents the typical savings that organizations may realize: Before Consolidation/Virtualization! Servers account for 50-75% of the data center s total floor space! Server sprawl is a challenge, resulting in high maintenance and support costs! Server utilization only 5-15% on average Hardware costs reduced % Maintenance costs reduced up to 50 % Support costs reduced by as much as 33 % Floor space and facility costs reduced %! IBM GTS can help clients... Realize ROI in as little as six months Reduce TCO by 30 percent to 70 percent Increase server utilization rates of up to 80 percent in contrast to the more typical 5 percent to 15 percent Realize consolidation ratios ranging from 8:1 to 30:1 Lower power and cooling costs by 10% to 30% * Results will vary widely based on several factors including # of servers and work load types. After Consolidation/Virtualization! Servers typically account for only 20-50% of the data center s total floor space! Consolidation ratios from 6:1 to 20:1! Typical TCO savings from 30-70%! Server utilization rates up to 80% 11

25 ASHRAE Recommendation : Design Recommendation for Next Generation Data Center " ASHRAE recommends server inlet temperature to be maintained between 20ºC - 25ºC " Server manufacturers recommend: -- For normal servers - 160CFM/kW -- For blade servers CFM/kW " Rack density to be based on IT kw " Footprint per rack is 3.0 m² per rack, including support equipment 25
26 Cooling Optimization : Spread out high density racks 26
27 Holes in between servers in the rack allow hot air re-circulation which are energy inefficient! When populating racks, use filler panels! Avoid connecting hot and cold aisles 27
28 DC Layout Issues! Try to avoid gaps in aisles! Be aware of corner racks 28
29 Above Floor Blockage! Do not obstruct hot air return path! Consider above ceiling options! Don t place CRACS under obstructions! Don t place CRACS under low ceilings 29
30 Use structured fibre cabling for flexibility, scalability and ease of management Diagnose! One of the recommendations can be the update from an unstructured cabling infrastructure to a structured cabling infrastructure. 30
31 Motivation for Liquid Cooling! Increase in heat removal performance: Superior thermal properties of liquids compared to air! Design flexibility: Sensible heat transport to locations with available space Air! Centralized secondary heat exchanger! Efficient water-water heat exchanger H 2 O Thermal conductivity [W/(m*K)] Volumetric heat capacity [kj/(m 3 *K)] Secondary Transport Disadvantage: Increased complexity Primary Long distance transport possible Limited heat transport due to fan efficiency 31
32 Rack / Data Center Liquid Cooling Chilled Water Data Center Building utility or local chiller Chilled Water Processor Chilled Water At least 15% energy savings on cooling energy by switching from air to water CRWC CRWC CRWC Common CRWC CRWC CRWC Rear Dual loop Front Air Flow Cover Heat Exchanger Top Views Side Car Heat Exchanger CRWC: Computer Room Water Conditioning Unit Water cooled Cold Plates within Node Cold Plate Base Products Remain Air Cooled 32
33 With an intermediate Coolant Distribution Unit, the traditional fear of water in data center vanishes RHDx circuit consists of: " Building Chilled Water # ~7 o C at psi inlet pressure # Supply & Return Plumbing # Control Valves Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) # Reservoir w/ Redundant Pumps # Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger # Controller " Rear Door Heat Exchanger # 19 or 24 Rear Door # Integrated Coil (Heat Exchanger) Primary Loop # Flexible Hoses (Supply/Return) Note: Secondary Loop chilled water temperature is always 2ºC above room dew point condition to prevent condensation ~18 o C Secondary Loop (13-20 psi) 33
34 RDHx Cooling Architecture " Rack Cooling fitted at rack rear door " Passive Cooling - no fan or moving parts to fail " No fans no power consumption " No additional noise added " No white space needed " Rack neutral " Fits existing racks - no IT downtime " 100% heat neutralization below 16kW per rack " Secondary CW Loop operates at low pressure (13-20 psi) " Highest TCO saving 34
35 RDHx Overcomes Cooling Capacity And Power Issues Virtualization BladeCenter Blue Cloud Green Do more with less Consolidation High Density computing Maxed out cooling & power capacity Use the Rear Door Heat Exchanger (RDHx) to overcome cooling & power-related sales obstacles 35

37 Basis of cooling IT servers in rack " Cold Air is delivered to the racks at ALL levels where servers are mounted " Sufficient Cold Air is available to cool ALL the servers inside the rack " Cold Air temperature is recommended between 20ºC 25ºC at the inlet to the servers ( Front of server) " Hot Air temperature leaving normal server & blade server should be below 38ºC & 46ºC, respectively ( Back of server ) Cooling servers means sufficient airflow at the inlet, maintained at the right inlet temperature 37
38 Removing the heat in specialized racks BEFORE the hot air gets into the hot aisle is an energy efficient approach Proven performance Engineered by IBM with 30+ years in liquid cooling computers Passive operation Increased density Removes up to 60% of heat, or 20kW Allows for high-density deployment Energy efficient Lessens burden on CRAC/CRAH units More efficient than fan based systems 38
