Reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) features
Reliability, fault tolerance, and data correction
The reliability of systems starts with components, devices, and subsystems
that are designed to be highly reliable. The POWER7 processor SCM uses lower-
voltage technology, improving reliability with stacked latches to reduce soft error
(SER) susceptibility. During the design and development process, subsystems go
through rigorous verification and integration testing processes. During system
manufacturing, systems go through a thorough testing process to help ensure the
highest level of product quality.
