CONFIGURING the SERVER

Approved Configurations

(1)1-CPU Configurations

Mezzanine cards are not supported for 1-CPU configurations, Therefore, only the following RAID controllers are supported for single-CPU configurations:

■Embedded RAID

■LSI MegaRAID SAS 9266-8i

■LSI MegaRAID SAS 9266CV-8i

(2)2-CPU Configurations

Select an embedded RAID option from Table 5, one mezzanine RAID controller from Table 6 on page 19, or one PCIe RAID controller from Table 7 on page 19. You may also select an appropriate optional RAID configuration listed in Table 7 on page 19.

Caveats

■The mezzanine controller is not available for 1-CPU configurations.

■If you choose a mezzanine card RAID controller or onboard RAID, both the half-height and full-height PCIe card slots are still available for adding optional PCIe cards.

■The optional PCIe RAID controllers are all half-height PCIe cards. If you choose one of these cards, only the full-height PCIe card slot will be available for adding an optional PCIe card.

■Note that only a single Cisco VIC card (either the full-height Cisco UCS P81E or the half-height Cisco VIC 1225 PCIe card) is supported and it must be installed in the full-height PCIe slot (slot 1) on riser 1. So take this into account when populating RAID controller cards.

■You can choose only one RAID controller (embedded RAID, plug-in PCIe RAID controller, or mezzanine card RAID controller).

■You can choose an optional RAID configuration (RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, or 10), which is preconfigured at the factory. The RAID level you choose must be an available RAID choice for the controller selected. RAID levels 50 and 60 are supported, although they are not available as configuration options.
