- • One KVM console connector (supplies two USB 2.0 connectors, one VGA DB15 video connector, and one serial port (RS232) RJ45 connector)
|
Internal storage devices | Drive storage: Drives are installed into front-panel drive bays that provide hot-swappable access for SAS/SATA drives. The server accommodates up to 4 x 3.5-inch SAS and SATA HDDs and SSDs and up to 2 NVMe PCIe drives- Other storage:
- One internal USB 3.0 port on the motherboard that you can use with an optional 16 GB USB thumb drive for additional storage.
- A mini-storage module connector on the motherboard supports either:
- • An SD card module with two SD card slots. Mixing different capacity SD cards is not supported.
- • An M.2 module with two SATA M.2 SSD slots. Mixing different capacity M.2 modules is not supported.
- One socket for a micro-SD card on PCIe riser 1. The micro-SD card serves as a dedicated local resource for utilities such as HUU. Images can be pulled from a file share (NFS/CIFS) and uploaded to the cards for future use.
|
NOTE: SD cards and M.2 SSDs cannot be mixed. See details for RAID functionality in the M.2 SATA SSDs (Optional) section. |
Integrated management processor | Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) running Cisco Integrated Management Controller (CIMC) firmware. Depending on your CIMC settings, the CIMC can be accessed through the 1GE dedicated management port, the 1GE/10GE LOM ports, or a Cisco virtual interface card (VIC). CIMC manages certain components within the server, such as the Cisco 12G SAS HBA. |
Storage controller | - Embedded RAID (software RAID)
- • Supports up to eight SATA-only drives
- • Requires a SATA interposer board
- Cisco 12G SAS RAID controller card with internal SAS connectivity.
- • Supports up to 10 internal SAS/SATA drives
- • Plugs into a dedicated RAID controller slot
- • Supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and JBOD mode
- Cisco 12G 9400-8e SAS HBA
- • Supports external JBOD attach
- • Plugs into an appropriate riser slot (up to two supported)
- • No RAID support
|
Modular LAN on Motherboard (mLOM) slot | The dedicated mLOM slot on the motherboard can flexibly accommodate the following cards:- Cisco Virtual Interface Cards
- Quad Port Intel i350 1GbE RJ45 Network Interface Card (NIC)
NOTE: Dedicated mLOM slot that can flexibly accommodate 1-, 10-, 25-, 40-, and 100-Gbps adapters |
NOTE: The four Intel i350 ports are provided on an optional card that plugs into the mLOM slot, and are separate from the two embedded (on the motherboard) LAN ports |
UCSM | Unified Computing System Manager (UCSM) runs in the Fabric Interconnect and automatically discovers and provisions some of the server components. |
