− RDIMM and LRDIMM support
− The DDR4 memory modules of different types
(RDIMM and LRDIMM) and specifications
(capacity, bit width, rank, and height) cannot be
used together.
⚫
Up to 12 DCPMMs
− The DCPMMs must be used with DDR4 memory
modules together.
− The DCPMMs support the AD or MM mode.
− Max. 2666 MT/s memory speed
− The DCPMMs of different specifications cannot be
used together.
− For details about the DCPMMs, see the
FusionServer DCPMM User Guide.
NOTE
The preceding information is for reference only. Use the
Compatibility Checker to obtain specific information.
Supports a variety of drive configurations. For details, see
5.5.1 Drive Configuration.
⚫
Supports two M.2 SSDs.
− M.2 SSDs are supported for RAID 0/1 and hot swap
without opening the chassis cover is supported
when the server is configured with an Avago
SAS3004iMR RAID controller card.
− The drive letter of the M.2 SSDs managed by the
Avago SAS3004iMR RAID controller card can be
set to sda by modifying the GRUB parameters only
when the RAID controller card is used with an
SR130, SR760IT-M, SP150IT-M, or SmartRAID
3152-8i RAID controller card or a PCH.
NOTE
⚫
The M.2 SSD module is used only as the boot device when
the OS is installed. Small-capacity (32 GB or 64 GB) M.2
SSDs do not support logging due to poor endurance. If a
small-capacity M.2 SSD is used as the boot device, a
dedicated log drive or log server is required for logging. For
example, you can dump VMware logs in either of the
following ways:
⚫
Redirect /scratch. For details, see
https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1033696.
⚫
Configure syslog. For details, see
https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2003322.
⚫
The M.2 SSD cannot be used to store data due to poor
endurance. In write-intensive applications, the M.2 SSD will
wear out in a short time.
Use enterprise-level high endurance (HE) SSDs or HDDs for
data storage.
⚫
The M.2 SSD is not recommended for write-intensive service
software due to poor endurance.
