With the exception of 9009-41A (S914), all Systems support 2x Processor Sockets and are 19-inch Rack Mount.
9009-41A is available for Rack or Tower and supports a single Processor Socket.
The 9008-22L is a Linux Dedicated System
The 9009 Systems support Linux, AIX, IBM i, VIOS.
The 9223 Systems are SAP HANA Optimized, also supporting Linux, AIX, IBM i, VIOS.
These new systems share many physically identical Features (albeit with different FCs) and this can lead to some confusion when viewing the models in isolation.
For this reason, the majority of this document will include all of the above models as we discuss the various options.

Notes:
------
Unlike previous CPUs, the Base Proc Speed varies based on the machine performance config.
Dynamic Processor frequencies have been around for some time, and are generally referred to as 'Turbo' (CPU Over-Clocking).
However, there are some discrepancies, based on IBM's published data;
CC 5C22 4-C Procs (#EP10, #EP16) share common FRUs but Base Speeds differ.
CC 5C27 8-C Procs (#EP18, #ELPV) share common FRUs, which makes sense.
CC 5C27 8-C Proc (#EP12) has a different FRU but same CCIN as #EP18, #ELPV.
CC 5C28 8-C Proc (#EP1E) has both a distict FRU and CCIN.
This implies the published FRU (01ML131) for either #EP10 or #EP16 may be wrong.
We will update this info once we discover if the published FRUs are correct.

Note: Slots with x8 Lanes, that are physically x16 Connectors will only support x16 Adapters that are designed to Auto-Negotiate the available lanes.
One of the PCIe3 x8/x8 Slots is used for the 1Gb 4-Port Ethernet Adapter
Storage Backplanes
------------------
Five Storage Backplanes FCs are announced for the initial Power9 Models.
2x Base Function (8-Bay and 12-Bay) without Write Cache
3x Expanded Function (8-, 12-, and 18-Bay) with Write Cache.
The 12-Slot Backplanes include an RDX Removable Storage Bay.
Note:
-----
P8 RAID Internal Adapters are not supported on P9 Models.
RAID Internal Adapters for Power9 Backplanes share CCINs with previous Power8 Backplanes, but they are different physical Adapters, with different FRUs.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
All Backplanes support
SFF-3 SSDs and HDDs
5xx and 4K Byte Sector formats (5xx & 4K can not be mixed in the same Array).
RAID-0, 5, 6, 10
Base Storage Backplanes (8-Bay #EL66/#EJ1F and 12-Bay #EJ1C)
-------------------------------------------------------------
The Base Backplanes include a single SAS Controller (CCIN 57D7) without Write Cache.
57D7 is a 2U Card.
Despite 12-Slot Bays only being supported on the 4U models, IBM confirm the card is the same for both 2U and 4U.
JBOD is supported.
Split Backplane FCs
-------------------
Base Backplanes support Split Drive Bays (4+4 or 6+6) via appropriate FC, which adds a second 57D7 SAS Controller.
The second SAS Controller does not include Write Cache.
#EL68 Split #EL66 to 4+4 SFF-3 Bays: Add 2nd 57D7 SAS Controller
#EJ1H Split #EJ1F to 4+4 SFF-3 Bays: Add 2nd 57D7 SAS Controller
#EJ1H Split #EJ1C to 6+6 SFF-3 Bays: Add 2nd 57D7 SAS Controller
Expanded Function Storage Backplanes (#EL67/#EJ1G, #EJ1M, #EJ1D)
----------------------------------------------------------------
These Backplanes include RAID Internal SAS Controllers with 1.8GB Physical Write Cache.
With Compression, up to 7.2GB of Write Cache can be achieved.
The 8-Slot Backplanes (#EL67/#EJ1G) us a Single Controller (non-Mirrored Write Cache) CCIN 57DC.
This controller uses the second controller slot for the Back-Up Power Module Card (No FC, no known CCIN).
The 12 and 18-Slot Backplanes (#EJ1M, #EJ1D) are Dual (Paired) Controllers (with Mirrored Write Cache) CCIN 57D8.
Write Cache is based upon Flash Memory and uses Super Capacitors to remove the need for batteries.
The Controller Cards include appropriate mini SAS HD internal connector Cables.
Expanded Function Backplanes support
RAID-5T2, 6T2, RAID-10T2
Easy Tier Function (Auto assigns Hot Data to SSD, Cold Data to HDD)
Active/Active Configs (with at least 2x Arrays)
Optional External SAS Port(s) #EJ00, #EJ0W
Expanded Function Backplanes do not support Split Backplane Configs.
Optional External SAS Port(s) #EJ00, #EJ0W
------------------------------------------
Supported on the Expanded Function Backplanes.
The 8x Slot Backplanes (#EL67/#EJ1G) support the addition a single SAS Port via #EJ00
The 12x Slot and 18 Slot Backplanes (#EJ1M, #EJ1D) support dual SAS Ports via #EJ0W
The SAS Ports are used to connect to an External SAS Storage unit such as the EXP24SX via a pair of SAS-Mini HD Narrow YO Cables.
The SAS Port(s) option covers a physical PCIe (x8) Slot.

Additional Backplane Notes:
---------------------------
Some IBM documentation refers to the RAID Internal Adapter Cards by the Backplane Feature Codes.
i.e.: PCIe3 x8 cache SAS RAID Internal Adapter 6 Gb (FC EJ1G; CCIN 57DC)
Strictly speaking, this is incorrect and could cause confusion.
The RAID Internal Cards have CCINs but not FCs.
The FCs refer to the Backplane.
