IBM 41U0012 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM 41U0012 is an internal battery feature, recorded here as #6200#6201 IBF INTEGRATED BAT. The IBF is IBM’s built in ride through power: a battery unit inside the frame that holds the machine up through a brief mains interruption, or brings it down cleanly if the outage lasts. It is fitted as an option rather than as standard, which is why it carries its own feature codes. Batteries age, so condition and manufacture date matter as much as the part number on an item like this.

IBM builds its large frame systems, the System z mainframes and the high end Power servers that share their packaging, around a bulk power subsystem rather than around individual power supplies. Mains comes in at the bulk power enclosure, is regulated and controlled there, and is distributed through the frame to converter assemblies at each book and drawer. Blowers, motor drive assemblies and, on the liquid cooled models, refrigeration or water cooling units hold the processor complex in its thermal envelope. Every one of those is a field replaceable unit.
