QuickSpecs HP BladeSystem c3000 Enclosure HP BladeSystem c-Class Overview HP BladeSystem Overview As server, storage and network technologies have changed; traditional rack-mounted infrastructure solutions have generated increased complexity of both infrastructure management and physical datacenter deployment. HP BladeSystem is the evolution of rack-mounted and pedestal infrastructure. A BladeSystem reduces costs and simplifies the management, building, and maintenance of the infrastructure behind your multiserver environment. It consolidates and repackages all the supporting infrastructure elements-compute, storage, network, and power into a single platform that can accelerate the integration and optimization of your data center. The HP BladeSystem c3000 enclosure has the flexibility to scale from a single enclosure holding up to 8 blades, to a rack containing 7 enclosures holding up to 56 blades, the c-Class infrastructure is designed to meet the needs of today's businesses. The c3000 enclosure is designed for several markets: Remote sites or branch offices holding between 3 and 8 servers, and in deployment sites such as retail stores, branch offices, manufacturing sites, and wiring closets. This enclosure is also designed for harsh environments not found in modern datacenters (high ambient temperatures, dusty environments, and in ships, airplanes, platforms, and vehicles). Small and medium businesses, who own between 3 and 100 servers. The enclosure is designed for use with management devices such as local KVM switches for local administration. Datacenters with special power and cooling constraints, such as datacenters needing DC powered racks, and/or datacenters with low power & cooling capacities (under 3000 watts per rack). HPC clusters with InfiniBand interconnection, where the applications need a 1 to 1 IB network subscription ratio between physical nodes in the compute cluster. HP BladeSystem c-Class infrastructure is made up of several components: HP ProLiant and/or HP Integrity Server blades for HP-UX, Windows, Linux, and HP Open VMS. Choice of Intel® or AMD processors, including the latest dual-core & quad-core processors for 32-bit and 64-bit applications. HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosure (either a c7000 or c3000) that provides connectivity, power, and cooling options. The c-Class enclosure is designed for full redundancy and high availability. A configurable choice of either redundant or non-redundant power, cooling, enclosure management, and interconnect modules are part of the standard enclosure design. Onboard Administrator module which provides a single point of control for intelligent management of the entire enclosure. Insight Display powered by the Onboard Administrator provides local management through an LCD display conveniently sited on the front of the system. Virtual Connect, Ethernet, Fibre Channel, InfiniBand, iSCSI, and other interconnect choices A power subsystem that provides either redundant or non-redundant power modes and Dynamic Power Saving mode, which uses up to 30% less power than traditional rack-mounted servers AC or DC power supplies are available. PARSEC (Parallel, Redundant, Scaleable, Enclosure Cooling) architecture: for maximum cooling that consumes less power and reduces datacenter noise. Direct-attach storage blades, and shared storage blades, which will provide file-based or blockbased shared storage capacity for the servers within the enclosure.

QuickSpecs HP BladeSystem c3000 Enclosure HP BladeSystem c-Class Overview HP ProLiant & Integrity Server Blades HP D2200sb Storage Blade Direct attached storage Delivering best-in-class performance, choice and reliability on AMD Opteron, Intel® Xeon® and Intel® Itanium 2® processors for Windows, Linux, Solaris, or HP-UX based servers; the HP portfolio of server blades supports a variety of application requirements for scale-out architectures. HP offers one-, two-, and four-processor server blades, with the widest range of performance, and form factors. For more information please see: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/north_america/12534.html The D2200sb Storage Blade delivers direct attached storage for c-Class servers, with support for up to twelve hot plug small form factor (SFF) SAS hard disk drives. The enclosure backplane provides a PCI Express connection to the adjacent c-Class server blade and enables high performance storage access without any additional cables. The D2200sb Storage Blade features an onboard Smart Array P411iP410i controller with 1 GB flash-backed write cache, for increased performance and data protection. Two ways to create shared storage with the D2200sb Use HP P411I0P4000 Virtual SAN Appliance (VSA) software to turn the D2200sb into an iSCSI SAN for use by all severs in the enclosure and any server on the network. HP VSA software is installed in a virtual machine on a VMware ESX host server adjacent to the D2200sb. HP P411I0P4000 VSA turns the D2200sb into a scalable and robust iSCSI SAN, featuring storage clustering for scalability, Network RAID for storage failover, thin provisioning, snapshots, remote replication, and cloning. Expand capacity within the same enclosure or to other BladeSystem enclosures by adding additional D2200sb Storage Blades and HP VSA licenses. A cost effective bundle of the D2200sb Storage Blade and a HP P411I0P4000 VSA license makes purchasing convenient. If storage needs increase, add HP P4300 or P4500 systems externally and manage everything via a single pane of glass. The HP X1800sb Network Storage Blade is a flexible storage server solution for BladeSystem environments. Combine the X1800sb with the D2200sb Storage Blade to enable file serving and iSCSI shared storage inside the BladeSystem enclosure. HP Ultrium Tape Blades HP Ultrium Tape Blades provide integrated data protection for HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosures: SB1760c Tape Blade is LTO-4 Ultrium tape technology with capacity up to 1.6 TB on a single data cartridge (2:1 compression) and performance up to 576 GB/hr (2:1 compression). SB1760c also includes hardware data encryption capability which can help safeguard data on tape cartridges. HP Ultrium Tape Blades provide direct attach data protection for the adjacent server and network backup protection for all other data within the enclosure. The HP Ultrium Tape Blades are the industry's first bladed tape drives and are developed exclusively for the BladeSystem c-Class enclosures.
