DL380a Gen12 at a glance

Processors

Two Intel Xeon 6 processors of the same model; HPE does not support the DL380a Gen12 with one. E-core models end in E (6700-series, such as 6710E), P-core models end in P (6500- and 6700-series, such as 6520P and 6530P). P-core processors are not available on the 8DW CTO model (P74461-B21). DL380a Gen12 Processors

Memory

32 DIMM slots, 16 per processor on 8 channels, for HPE DDR5-6400 registered kits from 16GB to 256GB. Up to 8TB with 256GB DIMMs in all 32 slots, at 5200 MT/s; 4TB with 16 DIMMs at 6400 MT/s, and the processor can set the speed lower.

Per processor, fit 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16 DIMMs with E-core processors, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 or 16 with P-core. 16GB kits go only in quantities of 4, 8 or 16 per server, and not with E-core processors.

No rank mixing, and no x4 with x8 DIMMs on one processor. HPE recommends system memory of twice the GPUs' memory. DL380a Gen12 Memory

Drives

NVMe SSDs only, one cage type per server: up to 8 U.3 SFF drives in two 4SFF cages (one 4SFF cage is standard) or up to 16 E3.S drives in four 4EDSFF cages.

Two 4SFF cages need the 8NVMe Rear Direct Cable Kit, which limits the server to 2 rear PCIe slots and 2 OCP slots; HPE pairs four 4EDSFF cages with the 16EDSFF x2 Direct Attach Cable Kit (P79347-B21) or with two MR932i-p controllers.

The NS204i-u v2 boot device needs the NS204i-u Front Cage Kit (P75284-B21). DL380a Gen12 Drives

Storage controllers

Intel VROC NVMe RAID for up to 8 direct-attached bays, off by default and licensed.

On the 8DW/16SW CTO model (P76706-B21) only: two tri-mode controllers of one model, MR416i-p, MR416i-o or MR932i-p, each with its own cable kit; the MR932i-p also needs 4EDSFF cages. HPE requires a 96W Smart Storage battery or Smart Hybrid Capacitor with an attached controller and lists them for the MR416i models. DL380a Gen12 Storage Controllers

Networking

No embedded network ports: an OCP 3.0 or PCIe network adapter is required. Two OCP 3.0 slots; an OCP adapter needs the OCPB Cable Kit or two OCPA Cable Kits, and cannot be fitted with the 4NVMe Direct Attach Cable Kit (P74702-B21) that a single 4SFF drive cage needs. A dedicated 1Gb iLO port. DL380a Gen12 Networking Adapters

GPUs

Up to 10 double-wide GPUs in 0, 1, 2, 4, 8 or 10 GPU configurations, one GPU model per server; each 16-pin cable kit powers two double-wide GPUs.

Ten GPUs, or eight RTX PRO 6000 GPUs (the most HPE allows), need the Front Chassis Fan Module Kit (P79656-B21) and Front Panel Kit (P79660-B21); the 8DW CTO model (P74461-B21) supports neither ten GPUs nor the RTX PRO 6000. On that model HPE recommends 110W fans in place of the 90W fans to cool 600W GPUs.

A server built with fewer than 8 GPUs takes 8 with the GPU Upgrade Kit (P81677-B21), plus 3 more power supplies of the same capacity if it has 5. GPUs

Expansion

Rear PCIe 5.0 x16 slots: 3 and 6 are standard, with up to four more optional.

Slot 1 needs one of two cable kits. The 4EDSFF Direct Attach Cable for NVIDIA (P74716-B21) cannot be used with SFF NVMe drives. The Rear PCIe 5-slot Cable Kit (P74722-B21) opens slot 1 in a 4DW, 8DW/16SW or 10DW configuration. Slot 4 is not available with 4 or 8 double-wide GPUs. Cable kits

Power

M-CRPS hot-plug power supplies: 2400W, 3200W and 2800W 277VAC, all the same model. 2 or 4 double-wide GPUs need 5 supplies and 8 or 10 need 8; on the 8DW CTO model (P74461-B21), more than 5 need a PDB kit. H100 NVL, H200 NVL and RTX PRO 6000 GPUs need 2400W or 3200W supplies. DL380a Gen12 Power Supplies

Management

HPE iLO 6 on the 8DW CTO model (P74461-B21), which cannot be upgraded to iLO 7; HPE iLO 7 on the 8DW/16SW CTO model (P76706-B21). The 8DW model does not support P-core processors, ten GPUs, the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell GPU, the MR416i controllers, Fibre Channel HBAs or twelve of the network adapters. Management hardware

Before you order memory, check whether the processors are E-core or P-core. The last letter of the model number tells you. An E (6710E) is an E-core processor: 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16 DIMMs per processor and no 16GB kits. A P (6520P, 6530P) is a P-core processor: 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 or 16 per processor, and 16GB kits only in quantities of 4, 8 or 16 per server. On either, use one rank count throughout and one data width per processor: the 32GB P69727-B21 is x8 and the 64GB P69728-B21 is x4, so they do not go on the same processor. Find the model in iLO under System Information › Processors.

DL380 Gen11, DL380 Gen12 or DL380a Gen12? How to tell

The chassis tells the DL380a Gen12 from the DL380 Gen12, which runs the same Intel Xeon 6 family and DDR5-6400 kits; the processor model number tells both from the DL380 Gen11.

DL380a Gen12 parts questions

How much memory does the DL380a Gen12 support?

Up to 8TB: 256GB DDR5-6400 RDIMMs in all 32 slots, which then run at 5200 MT/s; with one DIMM per channel (16 DIMMs) the maximum is 4TB at 6400 MT/s. HPE supports the DL380a Gen12 only with two processors, so all 32 slots are always available. Per processor, fit 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16 DIMMs with E-core processors and 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 or 16 with P-core processors. 16GB kits go only in quantities of 4, 8 or 16 per server, and not with E-core processors. Ranks may not be mixed, nor x4 with x8 DIMMs on one processor. HPE recommends system memory of twice the GPUs' memory.

Which drives fit the DL380a Gen12?

NVMe SSDs only: 2.5-inch SFF BC U.3 drives (NVMe Gen4) in the 4SFF cage, or E3.S EC1 drives (NVMe Gen5) in the 4EDSFF cage. HPE lists no SAS or SATA drives for the DL380a Gen12. The two cage types cannot be mixed; one 4SFF cage is standard, and up to 8 SFF or 16 E3.S drives fit, depending on the cages and cables the server has.

How do I tell whether my DL380a Gen12 has E-core or P-core processors?

Read the processor model in iLO under System Information › Processors. A model number ending in E, such as 6710E, is an E-core Xeon 6700-series processor; one ending in P, such as 6520P or 6530P, is a P-core processor. It decides the memory: with E-core processors fit 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16 DIMMs per processor and no 16GB kits; with P-core processors 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 or 16, and 16GB kits only in quantities of 4, 8 or 16 per server. Both processors must be the same model, and P-core processors are not available on the 8DW CTO model (P74461-B21).

Is my server a DL380a Gen12, a DL380 Gen12 or a DL380 Gen11?

Look at the chassis. The DL380a Gen12 is 4U, with cages for up to 10 double-wide GPUs; the DL380 Gen12 and DL380 Gen11 are 2U. The DL380a Gen12 and the DL380 Gen12 both run Intel Xeon 6 processors, whose model numbers end in P or E and carry no Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum name (such as Xeon 6530P), and both take the same DDR5-6400 registered kits. The DL380 Gen11 runs 4th or 5th Gen Xeon Scalable processors named Platinum, Gold, Silver or Bronze (x4xx or x5xx, such as Gold 6430 or Gold 6530) with DDR5-4800 or DDR5-5600 memory. Power supplies differ: M-CRPS on the DL380a Gen12, Flex Slot on the DL380 Gen12, so buy those from the page for your server.

Are refurbished parts on this list too?

Yes. A refurbished part carries the same HPE part number as a new one, so it is listed here under that number, and each listing shows its condition. Every part ships tested or factory sealed.

What warranty comes with DL380a Gen12 parts?

A replacement warranty of 1 to 5 years, depending on the part: memory is covered for 5 years, and many other parts for 1 or 3 years.
