www.supermicro.com/products/microblade The detailed specifications for a blade
module will contain a link to a list of recommended memory sizes and manufacturers.
etails on installation of memory modules into the MBI-6219G-T7LX /MBI-6119G-T7LX
MicroBlade module are found in Chapter 3: " Setup and Installation" on page 3-1.
Storage
The MBI-6219G-T7LX /MBI-6119G-T7LX MicroBlade module has one (1) 2.5" SATA3
HDD/SSD for an internally mounted drive per node. Additionally, two (2) M.2 and one (1)
SATA-DOM connectors are available that can be used for connection to drives for
storage or for installation of the node’s operating system for each node. See Chapter 3:
" Setup and Installation" on page 3-1 for storage installation details.
RAID
The MBI-6219G-T7LX /MBI-6119G-T7LX MicroBlade module has only one hard drive
per node, so no RAID array is possible.
Density
A maximum of twenty-eight blade modules may be installed into a single blade
enclosure. Each blade enclosure is a 6U form factor, so a standard 42U rack may
accommodate up to seven enclosures with 196 blade modules, the equivalent of 392 1U
servers. With the inclusion of up to fourteen CMM modules and up to twenty-eight
Gigabit Ethernet switches this would occupy up to 434U space in a conventional 1U
server configuration.
BMC Password
For security, each blade unit is assigned a unique default BMC password for the ADMIN
user. It can be found on a sticker on the blade service tab, and a sticker on the
motherboard. The sticker also displays the BMC MAC address. For more information,
refer to our website at https://www.supermicro.com/en/support/
