1 Introduction
The FUJITSU Server BS2000 SE Series unites the existing server lines S servers and SQ
servers in the server line SE servers.
Depending on requirements, the SE server contains all the system components needed for
operation as an overall application:
– SU /390 for BS2000 guest systems
– Server Unit x86 with BS2000, Linux or Windows guest systems
– Application Units x86 for operating Native or hypervisor systems (e.g. Linux, Windows,
VMware, OVM, etc.)
– Shareable tape and disk periphery
– A high-speed, server-internal infrastructure to connect the components with each other
and with the customer's IP or FC network.
The SE server is installed entirely and tested on the vendor’s premises in accordance with
customer specifications.
Many hardware components are redundant in design, thus ensuring that even if a fault
occurs with these components, operation can continue with the same performance.
You can easily upgrade the models on site.
For a description of the further features of the SE servers SE700, SE500 and SE300,
please refer to the chapter “System overview” on page 21.

1.2 Objective and target groups of this manual
The SE700 / SE500 / SE300 Operating Manual, which consists of a number of modules,
describes the features and hardware components of the FUJITSU Server BS2000 of the
SE Series. Users should read this manual carefully in order to obtain optimal performance
from the SE server.
Readers require a knowledge of BS2000 system operation and administration as well as
basic knowledge of Linux. In some places knowledge of X2000 is helpful. This can be
obtained from the “Operation and Administration” manual [5].
This manual is intended for people who operate an SE server:
●As administrator you manage the entire SE server with all its components and the
operating systems which run on it. You need a good knowledge of the BS2000, Linux
and Windows operating systems and of the network and peripherals.
As administrator you can also manage the integration of the optional Application Units
on which an open operating system runs in Native or virtualized mode (e.g. under
VMware).
●As operator you operate BS2000 on the Server Unit of the SE server. You need a good
knowledge of the BS2000 operating system and also of the connected peripherals.
●As XenVM administrator you operate the virtual machines and their devices for Linux
and Windows guest systems on the Server Unit x86 of the SE server. You need a good
knowledge of the Linux and Windows operating systems and also of the connected
peripherals.
