    The story may end with servers, but it starts with the foundation that makes compute go – and business grow. We have reinvented our entire portfolio of rack and power products to make IT infrastructure more secure, more practical, and more efficient. In other words, we have created a stronger, smarter, and simpler infrastructure to help you get the most out of your IT equipment. As an industry leader, Hewlett Packard Enterprise is uniquely positioned to address the key concerns of power, cooling, cable management and system access.


    HPE G2 Advanced and Enterprise Racks are perfect for the server room or today’s modern data center with enhanced airflow and thermal management, flexible cable management, and a 10-year Warranty to support higher density computing.


    HPE G2 PDUs offer reliable power in flexible form factors that operate at temperatures up to 60°, include color-coded outlets and load segments and a low-profile design for optimal access to the rack and support for dense rack environments.


    HPE Uninterruptible Power Systems are cost-effective power protection for any type of workload. Some UPSs include options for remote management and extended runtime modules, so your critical dense data center is covered in power outages.


    HPE KVM Solutions include a console and switches designed to work with your server and IT equipment reliably. We have got a cost-effective KVM switch for your first rack and multiple connection IP switches with remote management and security capabilities to keep your data center rack up and running.

Notes:

− Configuration with thermal consideration:

  • With the below scenarios, the Performance Heatsink or Closed Loop Liquid Cooling (CL LC) Heatsink or DLC Module must be selected: NVMe drives OR 100 GbE or above Networking/ InfiniBand OR Rear NS204i-u V2 OR NVIDIA® L4 GPU.
  • If Closed Loop Liquid Cooling (Factory installation only) was shipped with 1 Processor from HPE factory, field upgrade the server with 2nd Processor or different processor is not allowed due to the installation complexity.
  • 7x 4028 Performance Fan are embedded in the P78874-B21 (CL LC modul kit). Fan kit selection is not required by user.
  • 7x 4056 Performance Fan must be selected and be defaulted, if Performance Heatsink or DLC Module is selected.
  • In the CL LC bundle Kit, with full speed the 4028 Fan Kit runs at 210 W , which requires 42 W additional power than Alletra Storage Server 4210 Performance 4056 Fan Kit.
  • Max 1 of Liquid cooling can be selected from the below: “Closed Loop Liquid Cooling”, or “DLC CPM module”.
  • The “PCIe DLC Module” contains 2 Cold Plate Modules and 1 Quick Disconnect Module.
  • If DLC Module is selected, then "HPE ProLiant Direct Liquid Cooling 450 mm Female-male Connection Quick Disconnect Tube Set FIO Kit (P62046-B21)” must be selected. (See Power and Cooling solutions).

HPE Gen12 DLC Infrastructure

  • − Build-in a new feature with Leak Detection alert from iLO7 is available. iLO7 will trigger system shut down if a leak event is detected.
  • − HPE Alletra Storage Server 4210 Direct Liquid Cooling (DLC) solution requires at least one liquid cooling infrastructure item as follows: HPE Rack in 800 mm x 1200 mm (options listed below), Rack Manifold, CDU, Primary Hose Kit, and Secondary Hose Kit to function. Without above rack infrastructure to be selected, an unbuildable configuration will be triggered in this order.
  • DLC Rack options
    • o Rack 42U 800 mm x 1200 mm Ent G2 (applicable for Alletra Storage Server 42XX DLC)
    • o Rack 48U 800 mm x 1200 mm Ent G2 (applicable for Alletra Storage Server 42XX DLC)
  • − The DLC Rack Infrastructure setting is relatively complex and needs to be conducted by HPE Service with a complete enablement of DLC Rack solution. Major factors impacting the DLC Rack Infrastructure setting are listed below.
  • The connectivity of server to manifold
  • The DLC rack capability (liquid supply temperature, flow rate in each loop and CDU capability)
  • The CDU parameter setting (liquid type, server units in rack, and any mixing servers)
  • − If a customer has ordered from HPE previously and already has this basic infrastructure on site, please get unbuildable exception approval from HPE Alletra Storage Server Product Management Team. A standalone unit can be shipped for field upgrade as an exception, without this infrastructure the server DLC solution will not function

HPE Alletra Storage Server 4210 Closed-loop LC Module

  • − Build-in a new feature with Leak Detection alert from iLO7 is available. iLO7 will trigger system shut down if a leak event is detected and prevent the server from powering on until the leakage event is cleared, and REST API is performed for system recovery
  • − The P78874-B21 contains paired (2) cold plates (1 per CPU) each with a pump, Tubes, (7) 4028 fans and a radiator.

1 With removing the original PCIe Slot 2 cage and re-install the dedicated Alletra Storage Server 4210 NS204i-u cage, latch and cables in the P78867-B21. The NS204i-u v2 will take up PCIe Slot 2 space only.

− If a secondary FH riser is selected, then "NS204i-u Rear Cable Kit" cannot be selected.

− If NS204i-u v2 is selected, only one of the three enablement kits.

− There will be a left-port interference in a low-profile 4-port SFP NIC Adapter (no issue for 4-port Base-T) at Slot3, if the Slot 2 is loaded with Primary Riser cage (default in CTO Server) or NS204i-u Rear cable (Enablement) kit. Please take one of the below recommendations for building a valid configuration.

  • If Two quantity of 4-port SFP28 is selected, then Secondary FH riser must be selected.
  • If One FH card or 4-port Base-T card is selected with 4-port SFP 28, then Secondary FH riser must be selected.
  • Select an OCP type 4-port SFP card instead.

Networking

The thermal conditions vary as a combination of types of Networking PCIe OR OCP adapter in different Alletra Storage Server 4210 CTO Systems. In general:

  • − Ambient limitation will variate in the combination of Networking Adapter OR OCP bandwidth, DIMM capacity and cable type, incl. CAT, Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable and Active Optical Cable (AOC).
  • − Network Cable Tracking SKU type needs to be pre-selected in Smart Chassis session to enable an extended thermal capability in the Configurator.
  • − Standard Fan Kit cannot be selected when above 100 GbE .
  • − A detailed ambient temperature recommendation upon high-speed networking adapters is described in a later session.

Default settings in all NC CTO Server

“BCM5719 Ethernet 1 GB 4-port Base-T OCP3 Adapter” is defaulted in the configurator at rear Slot 14 OCPA if no H/W controller is selected.

  • − Or default at Slot15 OCPB if a Hardware controller is pre-selected, in Smart Chassis.
  • − Or a stand-up PCIe NIC adapter to be selected if there are two H/W controllers are pre-selected at both OCPA & OCPB, in Smart Chassis.
  • − Customers are allowed to remove the NIC card default setting and re-select other cards (OCP3.0 or stand-up cards) from Networking & InfiniBand.
  • Notes: Exception- Only x8 PCIe5.0 lanes each in the Slot14 OCPB in q’ty 20 E3.S drives configuration.
  • − If above 100 GbE Networking PCIe adapter or OCP adapter is selected, Standard Fan Kit cannot be configured

− The declared mean A-weighted sound power level, LWA,m, is computed as the arithmetic average of the measured.

− A-weighted sound power levels for a randomly selected sample, rounded to the nearest 0,1 B.

− The declared mean A-weighted emission sound pressure level, LpA,m, is computed as the arithmetic average of the measured A-weighted emission sound pressure levels at the bystander positions for a randomly selected sample, rounded to the nearest 1 dB.

− The statistical adder for verification, Kv, is a quantity to be added to the declared mean A-weighted sound power level, LWA,m, such that there will be a 95% probability of acceptance, when using the verification procedures of ISO 9296, if no more than 6,5 % of the batch of new equipment, has A-weighted sound power levels greater than (LWA,m + Kv).

− The quantity, LWA,c (formerly called LWAd), can be computed from the sum of LWA,m and Kv.

− B, dB, abbreviations for bels and decibels, respectively, where 1 B = 10 dB.

− System under abnormal conditions may increase the noise level, persons in the vicinity of the product [cabinet] for extended periods of time should consider wearing hearing protection or using other means to reduce noise exposure.
