Chapter 1 Overview The AlphaServer GS80, GS160, and GS320 systems are high-performance server platforms designed for enterprise-level applications. They are distinguished by their versatility and high degree of scalability and expandability. These powerful, switch-based systems use four Alpha microprocessors per quad 0 building block (QBB). Two QBBs paired back-to-back and rotated 180 with reference to each other form a system box. Each QBB backplane contains a switch that acts as an interconnec

1.1 The Systems The GS80 is a rack system whereas the GS160 and GS320 are box-based systems. 1.1.1 GS80 System The GS80 system is contained in a single cabinet. It is a drawer-based system consisting of one or two drawers. Each drawer contains one QBB with up to four CPU modules and up to four memory modules. In a two-drawer system a distribution board connects the two QBBs through their global ports. The system cabinet of the GS80 also contains the power supplies and accommodates one PCI box, a
