CONFIGURING the SERVER
STEP 5 CHOOSE ADAPTERS
The adapter offerings are:
■ Cisco Virtual Interface Cards (VICs)
Cisco developed Virtual Interface Cards (VICs) to provide flexibility to create multiple NIC and
HBA devices. The VICs also support adapter Fabric Extender and Virtual Machine Fabric Extender
technologies.
■ Converged Network Adapters (CNAs)
Emulex and QLogic Converged Network Adapters (CNAs) consolidate Ethernet and Storage (FC)
traffic on the Unified Fabric by supporting FCoE.
■ Cisco UCS Storage Accelerator Adapters
Cisco UCS Storage Accelerator adapters are designed specifically for the Cisco UCS B-series M3
blade servers and integrate seamlessly to allow improvement in performance and relief of I/O
bottlenecks.
Choose a Mezzanine Adapter
The supported mezzanine adapters in the UCS B200 M3 are listed in Table 9.
NOTE: There are two slots on the server. One accommodates Cisco, Emulex, and
QLogic I/O adapters or Cisco Storage Accelerator adapters as well as other options,
and one is a dedicated slot for the VIC 1240 adapter only.
Table 9 shows which
adapters plug into each of the two slots. Only the VIC 1240 adapter plugs into the VIC
1240 adapter slot. All other adapters plug into the mezzanine adapter slot.
NOTE: You must have a B200 M3 configured with 2 CPUs to support cards that plug
into the mezzanine connector. The VIC 1240 adapter is supported on both 1- and
2-CPU configured systems.
