Eight steps to building an HPE BladeSystem HPE BladeSystem overview Supported OS and virtualization software • Microsoft® Windows®: hp.com/go/wincert HPE BladeSystem with HPE OneView delivers a whole new experience for IT with the power of one—one infrastructure and one management platform to speed the delivery of services. Only the power of one delivers leading infrastructure convergence, availability with federation, and agility through data center automation. • • • • • • • HPE BladeSystem delivers real business results Building Blocks for a Modular Infrastructure HPE BladeSystem is a modular infrastructure platform that converges servers, storage, and network fabric. It accelerates operations and speeds delivery of applications as well as services that run in physical, virtual, and cloud-computing environments. Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® (RHEL): hp.com/go/rhelcert SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES): hp.com/go/slescert Oracle Linux Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel: hp.com/go/oelcert Oracle Solaris: hp.com/go/solariscert Canonical Ubuntu: hp.com/go/ubuntucert Purchase your entire operating environment from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Hewlett Packard Enterprise resells and provides full service and support for Microsoft Windows, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, Ubuntu Server, Citrix, and VMware. Learn more at hp.com/go/ossupport. The HPE VC Fibre Channel Modules for HPE BladeSystem c-Class are the simplest, most flexible connection to your SAN fabrics. The modules simplify server connections by cleanly separating the server enclosure from SAN, and simplify SAN fabrics by reducing cables without adding switches to the domain. This allows you to change servers in minutes, not days. Citrix®: hp.com/go/citrixcert Step 2: Choose your BladeSystem enclosure Because the core infrastructure is shared, capital costs can be significantly lower. Blades share power, cooling, network, and storage infrastructure at the BladeSystem enclosure level. The HPE VC FlexFabric and Ethernet Modules for HPE BladeSystem c-Class are the simplest, most flexible connection to your Ethernet and Converged fabrics. Virtual Connect modules provide high-performance and end-to-end optical or copper connections with HPE Networking and other brands of aggregation or core switches. HPE Virtual Connect modules are edge‑safe. The HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric family supports Flat SAN solutions by directly attaching to Fibre Channel (FC) storage with HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage Systems. Doing so removes the need for a SAN fabric between servers and HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage Arrays. HPE Virtual Connect Fibre Channel VMware®: hp.com/go/vmwarecert Shared infrastructure—reduced costs HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric and Ethernet Find a complete list of products in the Virtual Connect portfolio at hpe.com/info/virtualconnect. Ethernet blade switches HPE BladeSystem c-Class switches provide a rich set of networking features that can lower maintenance and operating costs. You can count on HPE Ethernet switches to provide the solution by choosing from simple‑to‑configure 1 Gb switches, 1 Gb/10 Gb hybrid switches designed especially for data centers in transition, or a powerful 10/20/40 Gb switch designed for handling data from today’s multiprocessor virtualized servers. Since equipment is not needed for reach server there is a dramatic reduction in power distribution units, power cables, LAN and SAN switches, connectors, adapters, and cables. Easier upgrades You can bring in the newest-generation technologies by simply changing the components that need to be updated. Find a complete list of products in the Interconnects portfolio at hpe.com/servers/blades/interconnects. Simplify routine maintenance HPE BladeSystem infrastructure changes takes less time with the wire-once connectivity only available with HPE Virtual Connect. Virtual Connect simplifies and converges server-edge connections, making them transparent to storage and networks. You can reduce server-edge infrastructure such as network interface cards, cables, and switches. HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric modules can be directly connected to HPE 3PAR Storage solutions via direct-attach flat SAN technology, which reduces complexity, cost, and latency.
