Configuration Information

Smart Templates from HPE

HPE is releasing new Smart Template technology in the One Config Advanced (OCA) configurator. These Templates represent the CTO equivalents of the top-selling BTO configurations. They are intended to provide simple starting points to assist you in easily creating and customizing your desired Server solutions. HPE Servers that have Platform Templates, developed by HPE Product Managers, will have a separate tab in the HPE OCA configurator.

Workload Solutions Templates from HPE

The Workload Solutions Templates are built on the Smart Templates technology to easily develop working configurations of the most compelling Workload Solutions. The templates complement the Reference Builds developed by HPE. Workload Solutions templates preconfigure some of the key architecture decisions and make it easier for Sellers to get started and complete a differentiated server solution for your customer’s specific workload.

Mainstream SKUs

HPE launched the Mainstream SKU initiative as a market-driven approach to Demand Steering. It is a simplified portfolio of our top selling options that meet the current and future market trends. HPE has committed to providing a more predictable and faster experience for these options. Mainstream SKUs enjoy higher safety stock levels and have higher fulfillment service levels than non-Mainstream SKUs. Mainstream orders are fulfilled +30% faster than non-Mainstream orders, have fewer shortages and better recovery dates. This platform has Mainstream SKUs in the options portfolio and is eligible for the improved Mainstream experience. Mainstream SKUs are designated with a Mainstream symbol in our configurators.

Mainstream Configurations

HPE is using the new Smart Templates technology to present Mainstream configurations.

All the options in a Mainstream configuration are pre-selected Mainstream SKUs to optimize the performance, predictability, and fulfillment experience. Check the Template section in our configurators for eligible Mainstream configurations.

This section lists some of the steps required to configure a Factory Integrated Model.

Notes: – Note – The -B21 memory SKUs shown in this document are to be used when ordering stand-alone memory only. For each -B21 SKU, there is a corresponding -F21 SKU which is to be used when configuring servers with integrated memory DIMMs. – Quantity of memory DIMMs selected per socket must be 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, or 12. For DL380a Gen11, select 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, or 24 DIMMs. – Mixing of 3DS memory and non-3DS memory is not supported. – Rank mixing is not allowed. – Do not mix x4 and x8 DIMMs within the same socket. – 4800 MT/s memory SKUs offer a transfer rate of up to 4800 MT/s at 1 DIMM per channel and up to 4400 MT/s at 2 DIMMs per channel, depending on CPU selection. The maximum memory speed and capacity is a function of the memory type, memory configuration, and processor model. – If 96GB PC5-4800 memory is selected then Qty 16 of 96GB DIMM must be selected. No other quantities of this memory are supported. – If 96GB PC5-5600 memory is selected then only Qty 2, 12, 16, 24 allowed for selection. No other quantities of this memory are supported. – HPE Server Memory compatibility for a specific server platform may vary or be limited within a server platform depending upon the specific configuration being requested. Because each server environment and requirements can vary, memory compatibility is based not only upon the server family but may also be affected by the amount and type of additional hardware options installed within a specific server configuration. For this reason, some HPE memory DIMMs may be qualified for an HPE server model or family and yet occasionally not be supported with some configurations within that server family.

Memory

Memory Population guidelines

General Memory Population Rules and Guidelines:

– Install DIMMs only if the corresponding processor is installed.
– If only one processor is installed in a two-processor system, only half of the DIMM slots are available.
– To maximize performance, it is recommended to balance the total memory capacity between all installed processors.
– When two processors are installed, balance the DIMMs across the two processors.
– White DIMM slots denote the first slot to be populated in a channel.
– Mixing of RDIMM types is not supported.
– The maximum memory speed is a function of the memory type, memory configuration, and processor model.
– The maximum memory capacity is a function of the number of DIMM slots on the platform, the largest DIMM capacity qualified on the platform, and the number and model of installed processors qualified on the platform.
– For details on the HPE Server Memory Options Population Rules, visit:
http://www.hpe.com/docs/server-memory
– To realize the performance memory capabilities listed in this document, HPE DDR5 Smart Memory is required.
– For additional information, Refer to the HPE DDR5 Smart Memory QuickSpecs.
