Sun Microsystems Sun Enterprise 220R
(engsoft.rutgers.edu)
- Two 450-MHz UltraSPARC[TM]-II
- 2 GB total memory capacity (with 128-MB DIMMs, in pairs)
- Two 3.5-x 1-inch 36.4 GB hot-pluggable disks
- 32x 644-MB SCSI CD-ROM and 10x DVD-ROM
- 16-KB data and 16-KB instruction on chip per processor
- 4-MB external per processor
The Sun Enterprise 220R server is a high-performance, shared memory, symmetric-multiprocessing system.
It is designed around Sun's high-speed Ultra Port Architecture (UPA) cross-bar system interconnect and
Sun's UltraSPARCTM II processors, to deliver outstanding overall system performance.
Processing power is provided by up to two modular UltraSPARC II CPUs, with up to 4 Mbytes of local high-speed external
cache memory. The system UPA's clock rate synchronizes automatically to the clock rate of the installed CPUs,
and the UPA bus operates at a clock rate that is a ratio of the speed of the CPU modules.
System main memory is provided by up to 16 dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs), each of which is capable of
storing 32, 64, or 128 Mbytes of data. Total main memory is expandable up to 2 Gbytes. To enhance memory I/O performance,
the system transfers 64 bytes of data into or from memory on each memory transfer.
Internal disk storage is provided by up to two 1-inch high, 3.5-inch wide (2.54-cm x 8.89-cm), Ultra-Small Computer
System Interface (UltraSCSI) disk drives. Both drives are supported on the same channel with a 40-Mbyte per second wide
UltraSCSI interface provided direct to the system's main logic board. Systems configured with two disk drives can provide
software mirroring and full hot-pluggable boot drive capability.

Sun Microsystems Ultra Enterprise 450 (2)
(cronos.rutgers.edu & coewww.rutgers.edu)
- Each server has four UltraSPARCTM-II processors
- Each UltraSPARCTM-II has 4-MB Ecache memory
- Total of 1 gigabyte of RAM
- More than 360-GB internal storage capacity
- 6 separate PCI buses providing more than 1-GB/sec I/O throughput
- 32X SCSI CD-ROM
- Two hot swap 560W power supplies standard (3 possible)
Enterprise power, scalability, and reliability for workgroups. Whether it's running one critical application for hundreds of clients, or many applications at once for a branch office or workgroup, the SunTM EnterpriseTM 450 gives you performance, reliability, and scalability you can count on--at a price you can afford.
In today's heterogeneous network environments, you expect a lot from your workgroup server. It should be scalable to accommodate changing business needs, reliable so data and applications are always available, and must inter-operate with all your systems. And it should be easy to deploy and manage.
Whether you're deploying these systems for e-mail, database applications, clustering, Web service, or enterprise resource planning--the Enterprise 450 gives you the power, throughput, and storage you need to meet user demands.
The Enterprise 450 delivers excellent performance for almost any mix of compute-, data-, or I/O-intensive applications: It supports up to four 300-MHz/2-MB or 400-MHz/4-MB UltraSPARC-IITM processors, a 1.6-GB/sec UPA interconnect, and a 1GB/sec PCI I/O subsystem for outstanding performance and data throughput. With up to 4-GB of main memory, up to 364-GB of fast hot-swap UltraSCSI internal storage, and over 6-TB of external storage capacity, it's a server you can count on when times--and workloads--change.
What's more, the Enterprise 450 works seamlessly with workstations, PCs, and Macintosh systems. With the robust SolarisTM operating environment's easy-to-use installation and Web software, you can actually get more productivity from all your systems--and your administrators. The Enterprise 450 is reliable with standard ECC datapath and memory protection, automatic system recovery, and hot-swap power supplies and disk drives. That's investment protection you can count on.

DSV Lab
The DSV lab was built new for the 1999/2000 school year. It consists of 60 Sun UltraSparc 10 computers. Each computer is a 360 mhz Ultra Sparc with 512 meg of memory. The machines are connected to the E450 Sun servers via 100 megabit ethernet.
Classes are taught in the lab with the students using the machines during class to follow along with the instructors.
