Integrated Management Log (IML) is a feature that records hardware events such as fan and power supply failures on HPE ProLiant servers. The IML can be viewed through various methods, such as the iLO web interface, the iLO RESTful API, or the Smart Storage Administrator (SSA). The IML provides historical information about the server’s hardware health and helps with troubleshooting and analysis.

HPE ProLiant DL560 Gen10 Server is a high-density, 4P server with high performance, scalability and reliability. It supports up to 6 TB of memory with 48 DIMM slots and up to 12 TB of memory with 96 DIMM slots when using HPE Persistent Memory2. This means that it can support a database of 5 TB to run in memory.

p: Class of Raid Controller

4: Number of SAS lanes

16: Smart Array Series

ie: Port Type

m: Controller Type (form factor)

HPE Smart Array P416ie-m SR Gen10 Controller is a flexible Smart Array controller that provides enterprise-class storage performance, increased internal scalability with SAS Expander Card, and data protection for HPE Synergy Compute Modules. The controller has these features:

• p: The P stands for Performance class, which indicates that the controller has high performance and reliability for demanding workloads.
• 4: The 4 indicates that the controller has four SAS lanes per port, which means that it can support up to four SAS devices per port.
• 16: The 16 indicates that the controller belongs to the 16th generation of Smart Array controllers, which offer enhanced security, performance, and manageability.
• ie: The ie stands for internal/external, which means that the controller has both internal and external ports. The internal ports connect to the drives inside the compute module, while the external ports connect to the SAS Expander Card or external storage devices.
• m: The m stands for mezzanine, which means that the controller is a mezzanine card that plugs into a dedicated slot on the compute module.

• NAS: c) Sharing files over industry standard protocols such as NFSv4 or SMB.
• SAN: a) Block access using a FC protocol. or b) Block access using FCoE protocol or d) Block access using the iSCSI protocol.

According to the HPE website, NAS stands for Network Attached Storage and is a storage system that provides file-level access to data over a network. NAS devices use protocols such as NFSv4 or SMB to share files with clients. NAS devices typically have their own file system and operating system and can support multiple users and applications.

SAN stands for Storage Area Network and is a network that provides block-level access to data over a dedicated network. SAN devices use protocols such as FC, FCoE, or iSCSI to transfer blocks of data to servers. SAN devices do not have their own file system and rely on the servers to manage the data. SAN devices typically provide high performance and availability for mission-critical applications.

This is because the HPE MSA 2060 Storage solution supports a mixture of 3.5 inch LFF and 2.5 inch SFF expansion enclosures for a maximum of 9 enclosures (10 total including the array). You can start small and scale as needed with any combination of SSDs, Enterprise SAS or MidLine SAS HDDs12.

HPE GreenLake for storage is a storage-as-a-service solution that provides a cloud-like experience for on-premises storage. The solution offers:

• Workload-optimized data services for file, block, backup, and disaster recovery
• A cloud-based management console for simplified operations and provisioning
• A consumption-based model that aligns costs with usage
• A buffer capacity that is installed but not activated until needed
• A pay-per-use billing that only charges for the capacity used above the reserve level

By migrating to HPE GreenLake for storage, the customer can avoid running out of storage on their virtual environment by using the buffer capacity as needed and only paying for what they use. The customer can also benefit from the flexibility, scalability, and performance of the storage services offered by HPE GreenLake.

This is because HPE GreenLake Compute Ops Management is a cloud-based service that provides a unified and automated way to monitor, manage and update servers remotely through a web console. It can help customers free up resources and automate management tasks such as firmware updates, compliance checks, server health monitoring and troubleshooting. It can also support servers across different locations and platforms, whether on premises, at the edge or in the cloud.

• RAID 1: any single drive
• RAID 1 ADM: any two drives
• RAID 5: any single drive
• RAID 6: any two drives

• RAID 1: This is a level of RAID that uses mirroring to create an exact copy of data on two or more disks. It can tolerate the failure of any single drive without losing data, as long as the other drive is still functional.
• RAID 1 ADM: This is a level of RAID that uses advanced data mirroring to create two copies of data on three disks. It can tolerate the failure of any two drives without losing data, as long as the third drive is still functional.
• RAID 5: This is a level of RAID that uses striping with parity to distribute data and parity information across three or more disks. It can tolerate the failure of any single drive without losing data, as long as the other drives can reconstruct the data from the parity information.
• RAID 6: This is a level of RAID that uses striping with double parity to distribute data and two sets of parity information across four or more disks. It can tolerate the failure of any two drives without losing data, as long as the other drives can reconstruct the data from the double parity information.
