Minimizing the Impact of Changes Version Control Keep track of new versions of system software with the version control feature of Insi
  • Using a Methodology Following a set of procedures when using the server can help prevent problems, or make troubleshooting easier if problems do occur. • Use uniform naming conventions for the servers, such as names that denote server location. Uniform naming conventions help when trying to remember often overlooked details that can hold the key to resolving a crisis. • Use unique IDs or names for the devices.

  • Abstract The widening performance gap between processors and memory along with the growth of memory- intensive business applications are driving the need for better memory technologies for servers and workstations. Consequently, there are several memory technologies on the market at any given time. HP evaluates developing memory technologies in terms of price, performance, and backward compatibility and implements the most promising technologies in ProLian

On the periphery of the array of memory cells are transistors that read, amplify, and transfer the data from the memory cells to the memory bus. Each DRAM row, called a page, consists of several DRAM cells. Each DRAM cell on a page contains a capacitor capable of storing an electrical charge for a very short time. A charged cell re

  • HP has developed several methods for updating the firmware in a ProLiant server and makes it easy to do so. This document emphasizes the importance of regular firmware updates to ensure that a ProLiant server is running optimally, making the system and its data less vulnerable to critical hardware and software events. Back to Top What is Firmware? Firmware is a software program that is stored in Read-Only Memory (ROM). Firmware is responsible for the behav

Regular Firmware Updates Essential for Optimal Performance and Functionality of HP ProLiant Servers Avoiding downtime and potential security risks is a high priority for ProLiant server customers. Ensuring that each server is running the latest drivers, patches, and operating system updates helps to establish this. However, many customers are unaware that updating the server’s System ROM and the firmware of other hardware components in the configuration is also essential for optimal system performance and system stability. Top This white paper covers the following topics: Why Should I Update My Firmware? What is Firmware? How Can I Tell If A New Firmware Update Is Available? How Do I Update My Firmware? Updating Firmware Using the Online ROM Flash Method Updating Firmware Using the Offline ROM Flash Method Why Should I Update My Firmware? It is important to update the firmware (also called “flashing the ROM”) as part of regular server maintenance. In addition, checking for specific firmware updates in between regular updates helps to keep the server performing optimally. Firmware updates are created for, but are not limited to, the following reasons: • To provide critical problem fixes that ensure system stability, such as upgrades that may prevent server unresponsiveness and other issues that could put the system at risk. • To correct product issues, such as ROM or processor functionality. • To improve system performance or make the system more serviceable. Best Practice: Many product issues that result in hardware replacement are preventable or correctable with a firmware update. HP recommends checking for a firmware update before sending a part back to HP for replacement. Based on the HP ProLiant product return rates, approximately 30 to 35 percent of all returned hardware products were functioning properly and only needed a firmware update. Although not all products fall into this category, server downtime and time spent removing, returning, and ultimately replacing hardware may have been avoided if an attempt had been made to flash the firmware during the troubleshooting process.

Improving I/O performance As virtual machine software enables higher efficiencies in CPU use, these same efficiency enablers place more overhead on physical assets. HP Flex-10 Technology and Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) both share the goal of improving I/O efficiency without increasing the overhead burden on CPUs and network hardware. Flex-10 and SR-IOV technologies accomplish this goal through different approaches. This article explores the differences in architecture and implementation between Flex-10 and SR-IOV. How these two technologies differ and why it matters HP Flex-10 Technology Flex-10 technology is a hardware-based solution that enables users to partition a 10 gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connection and regulate the bandwidth of each partition. HP Flex-10 is available only with Virtual Connect (VC), and is currently available for implementation only with supported HP BladeSystem servers. Flex-10 can be deployed now with HP BladeSystem servers, and with relatively little modification to existing I/O architecture. Adding Flex-10-capable network devices and virtual connect modules to existing HP BladeSystem infrastructure allows administrators to take advantage of the considerable I/O control and refinement delivered by Flex-10 technology. Using Flex-10 technology, administrators can configure a single BladeSystem 10Gb network port to represent four physical network interface controllers (NICs), also called FlexNICs, with a total bandwidth of 10Gbps. These four FlexNICs appear to the operating system (OS) as discrete NICs, each with its own driver. While the FlexNICs share the same physical port, traffic flow for each one is isolated with its own MAC address and virtual local area network (VLAN) tags between the FlexNIC and ISS Technology Update Volume 8, Number 3 Keeping you informed of the latest ISS technology

  • Abstract This paper provides guidance for users reconfiguring hard disk drives in any of the SL6000 Scalable System server nodes. The SL6000 server nodes are primarily intended for SATA hard drives, but SAS options are available. The hardware required to connect the disk drives depends on the type of server node, the type of drive (SATA or SAS), the drive form factor (LFF or SFF), and the number of hard drives in the configuration. The paper describes the
