Cisco UCS C240 M3 High-Density Rack Server (Small Form Factor Disk Drive Model)

CONFIGURING the SERVER
Approved Configurations
(1) No PCIe RAID controller
■ If you did not choose a PCIe RAID controller (for example, you are using embedded RAID or a
mezzanine RAID controller), you can select up to three PCie option cards listed in
Table 11
for a 1-CPU system or up to five for a 2-CPU system.
(2) One PCIe RAID controller card
■ If you selected one PCIe RAID controller, you can select up to two of the optional PCIe cards
listed in
Table 11 for a 1-CPU system or up to four for a 2-CPU system.
(3) Two PCIe RAID controllers
■ If you selected two PCIe RAID controllers (only supported in 16 HDD backplane 2-CPU
systems), you can select three of the optional PCIe cards listed in
Table 11.
Caveats
■ For 1-CPU systems:
— Only the three PCIe slots on PCIe riser 1 are available. The three slots are full-height
PCIe slots 1, 2, and 3 (see
Figure 3 on page 7). These are the three slots on the
right when looking at the rear of the server.
— Neither the PCIe riser 2 (with the two PCIe slots numbered PCIe 4 and PCIe 5, at the
left when viewing the server from the rear) nor the mezzanine card are supported
on 1-CPU systems.
— Only a single VIC card (the half-height Cisco VIC 1225 PCIe card) may be installed on
a 1-CPU system, and it must be installed in slot 2 of riser 1. See
Table 1 on page 8
for the slot descriptions.
