Lero tili ndi patebulo lathu m'badwo watsopano wachisanu wa Cisco UCS C240 rack seva.
Ndi chiyani chomwe chimapangitsa seva iyi ya Cisco kukhala yosangalatsa kwa unboxing, popeza takumana kale ndi m'badwo wake wachisanu?
Choyamba, ma seva a Cisco tsopano amathandizira m'badwo waposachedwa wa Intel Scalable processors. Kachiwiri, tsopano mutha kukhazikitsa ma module a Optane Memory kuti mugwiritse ntchito ma drive angapo a NVMe.
Mafunso omveka amabwera: kodi ma seva ochokera kwa ogulitsa ena samachita izi? Chavuta ndi chiyani, popeza ndi seva ya x86 chabe? Zinthu zoyamba poyamba.
Kuphatikiza pa ntchito za seva yokhayokha, Cisco C240 M5 ikhoza kukhala gawo la zomangamanga za Cisco UCS. Apa tikulankhula za kulumikizana ndi FI ndikuwongolera ma seva pogwiritsa ntchito UCS Manager, kuphatikiza Auto Deploy.
Chifukwa chake, tili ndi seva ya "chitsulo" Cisco, m'badwo wake wachisanu, zaka zopitilira 10 pamsika.
Tsopano tibwerera ku zoyambira, kumbukirani zomwe seva ili nazo, ndi zomwe zimapangitsa Cisco C240 M5 osati zamakono, koma zapamwamba kwambiri.
Tiyeni tiwone zomwe zili mu phukusi.
Zamkatimu Zabokosi: seva, KVM Dongle, zikalata, litayamba, 2 zingwe mphamvu, zida unsembe.
Chotsani chophimba. Dinani, sunthani ndipo ndi momwemo. Palibe screwdrivers kapena mabawuti otayika.
Zolemba zobiriwira nthawi yomweyo zimakopa maso anu. Zinthu zonse zomwe zimathandizira kusinthana kotentha zili nazo. Mwachitsanzo, mutha kusintha mafani mosavuta popanda kuzimitsa mphamvu ku seva yonse.
Tikuwonanso ma radiator akulu, pomwe ma processor atsopano a Intel Scal 2 Gen amabisika. Dziwani kuti izi ndi mpaka 56 cores pa seva ya 2U popanda vuto lililonse lozizira. Kuphatikizanso kukumbukira kumathandizidwa, mpaka 1TB pa purosesa iliyonse. Ma frequency omwe amathandizidwa nawo adakweranso mpaka 2933 MHz.
Pafupi ndi CPU timawona mipata 24 ya RAM - mutha kugwiritsa ntchito timitengo mpaka 128 GB kapena kukumbukira kwa Intel Optane mpaka 512 GB pa slot.
Intel Optane imatsegula liwiro lodabwitsa lopangira. Mwachitsanzo, angagwiritsidwe ntchito ngati wapamwamba-mwachangu m'deralo SSD pagalimoto.
Tsopano zopempha zambiri kuchokera kwa makasitomala zimayamba ndi mawu akuti: "Ndikufuna ma disks ambiri, ma drive a NVMe ambiri mudongosolo limodzi."
Kumbali yakutsogolo timawona mipata ya 8 2.5 inchi yama drive. Njira yapulatifomu yokhala ndi mipata yokhazikika 24 kuchokera pagulu lakutsogolo imapezekanso kuti iyitanitsa.
Kutengera kusinthidwa, mpaka ma drive 8 a NMVe mu mawonekedwe a U.2 atha kuyikidwa m'malo oyamba.
C240 platform nthawi zambiri imakonda kwambiri makasitomala akuluakulu a data. Pempho lawo lalikulu ndikutha kukhala ndi ma drive a boot akomweko komanso makamaka otentha pluggable.
Poyankha pempholi, Cisco adaganiza zowonjezera mipata iwiri yama disks osinthika otentha kumbuyo kwa seva mu C240 M5.
Ali kumanja kwa mipata yowonjezera magetsi. Ma drive amatha kukhala aliwonse: SAS, SATA, SSD, NVMe.
Pafupi timawona magetsi a 1600W. Komanso ndi Hot Pluggable ndipo amabwera ndi ma tag obiriwira.
Kuti mugwire ntchito ndi disk subsystem, mutha kukhazikitsa chowongolera cha RAID kuchokera ku LSI chokhala ndi 2 GB ya cache, kapena khadi ya HBA yotumiza mwachindunji, mugawo lodzipereka.
Mwachitsanzo, njirayi imagwiritsidwa ntchito pomanga njira ya Cisco HyperFlex hyperconverged.
Palinso mtundu wina wamakasitomala omwe safuna ma disks konse. Sakufuna kuyika chowongolera chonse cha RAID pansi pa hypervisor, koma amakonda vuto la 2U potengera ntchito mosavuta.
Cisco ilinso ndi yankho kwa iwo.
Kuyambitsa gawo la FlexFlash:
Makhadi awiri a SD, mpaka 128 GB, okhala ndi chithandizo chagalasi, pakuyika hypervisor, mwachitsanzo, VMware ESXi. Ndi njira iyi yomwe ife ku ITGLOBAL.COM timagwiritsa ntchito pomanga malo athu padziko lonse lapansi.
Kwa makasitomala omwe amafunikira malo ochulukirapo kuti atengere OS, pali njira yopangira ma "satash" SSD ma drive awiri amtundu wa M.2, okhala ndi mphamvu ya 240 kapena 960 GB iliyonse. Chokhazikika ndi pulogalamu ya RAID.
Kwa ma drive a 240 GB, pali mwayi wogwiritsa ntchito Cisco Boot optimized M.2 Raid controller - chowongolera cha Hardware RAID cha ma SSD awiriwa.
Zonsezi zimathandizidwa ndi machitidwe onse: VMware ndi Windows, ndi machitidwe osiyanasiyana a Linux.
Chiwerengero cha mipata ya PCI ndi 6, yomwe imakhala yofanana ndi nsanja ya 2U.
Muli malo ambiri mkati. Ndizosavuta kukhazikitsa ma accelerators awiri athunthu a NVidia m'maseva, mwachitsanzo, TESLA M10 m'mapulojekiti okhazikitsa ma desktops kapena kusindikiza kwaposachedwa kwa V100 pa 32GB pazantchito zanzeru. Tidzagwiritsa ntchito mu unboxing yotsatira.
Mkhalidwe wamadoko ndi motere:
- Khomo la console;
- Gigabit odzipereka kasamalidwe doko;
- Madoko awiri a USB 3.0;
- Integrated 2-port Intel x550 10Gb BASE-T khadi network;
- Khadi la mLOM losasankha, adaputala ya Cisco Vic 1387 yapawiri-port 40 GB.
Malo a mLOM amatha kukhala ndi makhadi a Cisco VIC okha, omwe ndi othandiza potumiza magalimoto onse a LAN ndi SAN. Mukamagwiritsa ntchito seva ngati gawo la nsalu ya Cisco UCS, njirayi imakulolani kuti mukonzekere kugwirizana kwa ma LAN ndi ma intaneti a SAN m'njira yogwirizana popanda kufunikira kogwiritsa ntchito fc adapter.
Tiyeni tiyike chowongolera makanema cha Nvidia V100. Timachotsa chokwera chachiwiri, chotsani pulagi, ikani khadi mu kagawo ka PCI, kutseka pulasitiki ndiyeno pulagi. Timagwirizanitsa mphamvu zowonjezera. Pele kuli kadi, eelyo kuzwa kujulu. Timayika chokwera m'malo mwake. Kawirikawiri, zonse zimapita popanda kugwiritsa ntchito screwdrivers ndi nyundo. Mofulumira komanso momveka bwino.
Mu chimodzi mwazinthu zotsatirazi tiwonetsa kuyika kwake koyamba.
Ndife okonzeka kuyankha mafunso onse kapena mu ndemanga.
