Greg, the Atoka motherboard in the ICE cluster was designed in a
cooperative effort by SGI and Supermicro,
as far as I know. Given that they have pinouts on the rear for the SGI
blade enclosures they must have been designed
inconcert with SGI. The blade enclosures themselves are of the same
design as the Altix 4700 series.
