Upgradeability
Upgradeable to quad (4) processors
NOTE: The HP ProLiant BL685c only
supports 2 and 4 processor configurations.
NOTE:
Memory must be installed in pairs. NOTE: DIMMs must be installed
in decreasing capacity with the largest DIMMs installed in the banks furthest
away from each processor.
Network
Controller
Four (4) embedded network adapter
ports, plus one (1) additional management port consisting of:
One (1) embedded NC326i Dual Port Gigabit Server Adapter
Two (2) embedded NC373i Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapters
One (1) embedded 10/100 network adapter dedicated to iLO 2 Management
NOTE: The Gigabit Ethernet adapters
transmit from the server only at 2000 Mbps, full duplex per port. However,
within a Linux environment, the speed can be reduced or "throttled"
using a feature available within the Linux operating system; see the white
paper at: http://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/4AA1-5513ENW.pdf
for more information.
Once the adapter signal reaches the interconnect within the blade enclosure
and communicates outside the blade enclosure to the LAN, the blade interconnect
uplink types and settings determine the cable media, speed, duplex mode,
and auto negotiation mode.
Multifunction
Networking
The embedded multifunction NC373i combines standard Gigabit Ethernet
networking, TCP/IP offload engine (TOE) acceleration, iSCSI boot, and
optional accelerates iSCSI into a single adapter.
TOE moves the processing of data in the TCP protocol stack from the
server CPU to the network card, freeing CPU cycles for other activities.
With TOE, network communications are improved, and server efficiency
is increased. The NC373i offers TOE for Microsoft® Windows environments.
The iSCSI network boot (iSCSI boot) allows the BL685c to boot from
a remote operating system (OS) image located on a storage area network
(SAN) within a Microsoft Windows and Linux environment. The BL685c uses
an iSCSI firmware image (iSCSI boot option ROM) making the remote disk
drive appear as a local, bootable C: drive. The BL685c is configured
to connect to and boot from the iSCSI target disk on the network and
download the OS image from the iSCSI target disk. The iSCSI boot option
ROM is supplied by HP at no cost. Additionally, cost and mezzanine slot
usage of an add-in iSCSI HBA card is not required. Additionally, the
HP iSCSI boot solution includes scripts to significantly simplify the
installation process.
