NOTE: All 10Gb Ethernet adapters are Type A mezzanine cards that can be installed in any of the BL660c Gen8 mezzanine slots.
NOTE: Each 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter requires a minimum of 2GB of server memory.
NOTE: A 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter supports linking at 1Gbps or 10Gbps when connected to an interconnect module with 10Gb Ethernet downlinks.
NOTE: A 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter supports linking at only 1Gbps when connected to an interconnect module with 1Gb Ethernet downlinks.
NOTE: The 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapters on each server blade connect to a 10Gb interconnect in bays 3-6 (HP BladeSystem c7000 Enclosure) or bays 2-4 (HP BladeSystem c3000 Enclosure).
NOTE: The server supports one or two FlexibleLOMs, which must be identical.
NOTE: For Pre-configured Model configurations, two FlexibleLOMs are already included; no additional FLexibeLOMs are added.
NOTE: For a Factory Integrated Model configuration with one FlexibleLOM, it is added in the HP Networking section of "Step 2" in the Factory Integrated Models section earlier in this document; it is not added here.
NOTE: For a Factory Integrated Model configuration with two FlexibleLOMs, the second FlexibleLOM (although same technology) is a different part number. You must select the first FlexibleLOM earlier in this document in the "Step 2" HP Networking section and select the second FlexibleLOM here in the "Step 4" HP Networking section.
NOTE: The FlexibleLOMs here can also be used change the FlexibleLOM(s) that original came with the server.
NOTE: All FlexibleLOMs are dual port: one port is routed to interconnect module bay 1 and the other to bay 2.
NOTE: The server supports one or two FlexibleLOMs. Two are already included in the Pre-configured Models and the first one is added per Step 2 for Factory Integrated Models. The 1GbE FlexibleLOM option below is used to change the original 10Gb FlexibleLOM(s) that originally came with the server.
NOTE: For a two FlexibleLOM configuration, the two FlexibleLOMs must be identical.
NOTE: The BL660c Gen8 supports two or four processors; one and three processor configurations are not supported.
NOTE: All processor kits contain two (2) processors.
NOTE: All processors within the server must be identical.
NOTE: The processor model as well as the memory configuration determines the maximum speed memory can operate. Please see the see the "Memory" section later in this document.
NOTE: HP memory from previous generation servers are not qualified or warranted with this HP ProLiant Server. HP SmartMemory is required to realize the memory performance improvements and enhanced functionality listed in this document. For additional information, please see the HP SmartMemory QuickSpecs at: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/14225_div/14225_div.html
NOTE: LRDIMMs and RDIMMs are all distinct memory technologies and cannot be mixed within a server.
NOTE: A minimum of one DIMM is required per server.
NOTE: For additional memory rules and guidelines, see the "Memory" section later in this document.
NOTE: The ProLiant BL660c Gen8 server includes the new HP hot-plug small form factor (SFF) SmartDrive carrier for enhanced management and reduced maintenance errors. HP drives from previous generation servers are not compatible with the BL660c Gen8 drive bays.
NOTE: HP hard drives have either a one year or three year warranty; refer to the specific hard drive QuickSpecs for details.
NOTE: The hard drive options are not required when configuring a drive-less model.
NOTE: The mixing of standard SAS drives with SAS SSD drives is supported within the server, but limits the RAID configuration to two separate RAID 0 volumes. Mixing of other drives types is not supported.
SAS Hot Plug with Smart Drive SFF (2.5-inch) Enterprise Drives
NOTE: The HP Smart Array P721m Controller is a Type B mezzanine card that can be installed in BL660c Gen8 mezzanine slots 2 and 3.
NOTE: The BL660 has three installation locations for the "capacitor pack" that comes with the FBWC on Smart Array controllers. The first install location is for the embedded Smart Array P220i Controller. The second install location is for an optional Smart Array controller Type A or B mezzanine card with FBWC installed in mezzanine slot 3. The third install location is for an optional Smart Array controller mezzanine card with FBWC installed in either mezzanine slot 1 (Type A only) or slot 2 (Type A or B).
NOTE: When an InfiniBand adapter is installed in mezzanine slot 1, only one port is active (regardless of operating mode). When installed in any other mezzanine slot, both ports are active.
HP FDR/EN InfiniBand 10/40Gb Dual Port 544M Adapter NOTE: The FDR InfiniBand adapter must be installed in mezzanine slot 1 for FDR mode and may be installed in any mezzanine slot if operated in any other mode.
HP LTO-5 SB3000c Tape Blade NOTE: LTO-5 Ultrium tape technology. NOTE: The ProLiant BL660c Gen8 supports up to two expansion blades (Ultrium Tape Blade(s), HP D2200sb Storage Blade(s), and/or PCI Expansion Blade(s) ) that directly connect to the server via the enclosure midplane. NOTE: For the above Ultrium tape drives, please see the QuickSpecs for technical specifications and additional information at: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12729_na/12729_na.html
HP D2200sb Storage Blade NOTE: The ProLiant BL660c Gen8 supports up to two expansion blades (Ultrium Tape Blade(s), HP D2200sb Storage Blade(s), and/or PCI Expansion Blade(s) that directly connect to the server via the enclosure midplane NOTE: Please see the QuickSpecs for technical specifications and additional information at: http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/bladesystem/index.html
HP Expansion Blade HP BLc PCI Expansion Blade NOTE: The PCI Expansion Blade provides PCI card slots for an adjacent c-Class Server Blade. NOTE: The ProLiant BL660c Gen8 supports up to two expansion blades (Ultrium Tape Blade(s), HP D2200sb Storage Blade(s), and/or PCI Expansion Blade(s) that directly connect to the server via the enclosure midplane. NOTE: The PCI Expansion Blade ships with one pre-installed PCI-X connect board. Also includes one PCIe connect board which requires installation. NOTE: Please see the QuickSpecs for technical specifications and additional information at: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12753_div/12753_div.html
