Warranty

This product is covered by a global limited warranty and supported by HPE Services and a worldwide network of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Authorized Channel Partners resellers. Hardware diagnostic support and repair is available for three years from date of purchase. Support for software and initial setup is available for 90 days from date of purchase. Enhancements to warranty services are available through HPE Services operational services or customized service agreements. Hard drives have either a one year or three year warranty; refer to the specific hard drive QuickSpecs for details.

 

Notes: Server Warranty includes 3-Year Parts, 3-Year Labor, 3-Year Onsite support with next business day response. Warranty repairs may be accomplished using Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts. These parts fall into two categories: 1) Mandatory CSR parts are designed for easy replacement. A travel and labor charge will result when customers decline to replace a Mandatory CSR part; 2) Optional CSR parts are also designed for easy replacement but may involve added complexity. Customers may choose to have Hewlett Packard Enterprise replace Optional CSR parts at no charge. Additional information regarding worldwide limited warranty and technical support is available at: https://www.HPE.com/support/ProLiantServers-Warranties 


Server Management

 

HPE iLO Advanced

HPE iLO Advanced licenses offer smart remote functionality without compromise, for all HPE ProLiant servers. The license includes the full integrated remote console, virtual keyboard, video, and mouse (KVM), multi-user collaboration, console record and replay, and GUI-based and scripted virtual media and virtual folders. You can also activate the enhanced security and power management functionality.

 

Cooling Options

These optional cooling technologies are compatible with both air cooled and liquid cooled HPE servers.

 

HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System (ARCS)

This cooling solution supports up to four full racks (servers, networking or storage) and manages 100% of the server heat in a completely enclosed cluster. It provides cool air for the inlet side and manages exhaust heat, transferring it to facility water cooling. When servers with DLC are added to ARCS, the highest rack density is possible, with 100% heat transfer to facility water.

 

Learn more at http://www.HPE.com/psnow/doc/a00051240enw

 

HPE Rear Door Heat Exchanger (RDHX)

This cooling solution attaches to the back of a single rack (servers, networking or storage) and neutralizes the hot air exiting the rack by transferring the heat to facility water cooling. When servers with DLC are added to RDHX, the highest rack density is possible, with 100% heat transfer to facility water.

 

Learn more at http://www.HPE.com/psnow/doc/a00039574enw


One Config Simple (OCS/SCE) 

SCE is a guided self-service tool to help sales and non-technical people provide customers with initial configurations in 3 to 5 minutes. You may then send the configuration on for configuration help, or use in your existing ordering processes. If you require "custom" rack configuration or configuration for products not available in SCE, please contact Hewlett Packard Enterprise Customer Business Center or an Authorized Partner for assistance. https://h22174.www2.HPE.com/SimplifiedConfig/Welcome


Rack and Power Infrastructure 

The story may end with servers, but it starts with the foundation that makes compute go - and business grow. We've reinvented our entire portfolio of rack and power products to make IT infrastructure more secure, more practical, and more efficient. In other words, we've created a stronger, smarter, and simpler infrastructure to help you get the most out of your IT equipment. As an industry leader, Hewlett Packard Enterprise is uniquely positioned to address the key concerns of power, cooling, cable management and system access.

 

HPE G2 Advanced and Enterprise Racks are perfect for the server room or today's modern data center with enhanced airflow and thermal management, flexible cable management, and a 10 year Warranty to support higher density computing.

 

HPE G2 PDUs offer reliable power in flexible form factors that operate at temperatures up to 60°C, include color-coded outlets and load segments and a low-profile design for optimal access to the rack and support for dense rack environments.

 

HPE Uninterruptible Power Systems are cost-effective power protection for any type of workload. Some UPSs include options for remote management and extended runtime modules so your critical dense data center is covered in power outages.

 

HPE KVM Solutions include a console and switches designed to work with your server and IT equipment reliably. We've got a cost-effective KVM switch for your first rack and multiple connection IP switches with remote management and security capabilities to keep your data center rack up and running.

 

Learn more about HPE Racks, KVM, PDUs and UPSs at HPE Rack and Power Infrastructure.

 

HPE Rack Information 

- S4H39A is required for 48U racks

- S4H40A is required for 42U racks

 

HPE strongly recommends the use of HPE racks. If non-HPE racks are used, please be aware that cable bend radius requires the following to close the door of the rack:

- 150 mm space in front of the rack

- 100 mm space in the rear of the rack

- Consideration of additional space required for PDUs and a DLC solution that will include manifolds


For the most up-to-date information on HPE Services, please refer to the HPE Services - Supplemental QuickSpecs, which provides a comprehensive and regularly updated overview of available services.

This section lists some of the steps required to configure a Factory Integrated Model. To ensure only valid configurations are ordered, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends the use of an HPE approved configurator. Contact your local sales representative for information on configurable product offerings and requirements.

- Factory Integrated Models must start with a CTO Server.

- FIO indicates that this option is only available as a factory installable option.

- All Factory Integrated Models will be populated with sufficient hard drive blanks based on the number of initial hard drives ordered with the server.

- Some options may not be integrated at the factory. Contact your local sales representative for additional information.

Step 3: Choose Memory Options

Please select memory kits from below.

For memory population rule whitepaper and optimal memory performance guidelines, please go to:

HPE Memory Population Rules

 

Notes:

- Rank mixing is not allowed.

- No x4 mixing with x8 across a socket.

- 6400 MT/s memory SKUs offer a transfer rate of up to 6400 MT/s at 1 DIMM. 128 GB option is unlikely to be available or priced reasonably given industry-wide memory shortages

- HPE Server Memory compatibility for a specific server platform may vary or be limited within a server platform depending upon the specific configuration being requested. Because each server environment and requirements can vary, memory compatibility is based not only upon the server family but may also be affected by the amount and type of additional hardware options installed within a specific server configuration. For this reason, some HPE memory DIMMs may be qualified for an HPE server model or family and yet occasionally not be supported with some configurations within that server family.

Memory Population guidelines

 

-------- Front side of the server --------

 

HPE ProLiant Compute XD685

 

General Memory Population Rules and Guidelines:

- To maximize performance, it is recommended to balance the total memory capacity between all installed processors.

- When two processors are installed, balance the DIMMs across the two processors.

- The maximum memory speed is a function of the memory type, memory configuration, and processor model.

- The maximum memory capacity is a function of the number of DIMM slots on the platform, the largest DIMM capacity qualified on the platform, the number and model of installed processors qualified on the platform.

- To realize the performance memory capabilities listed in this document, HPE DDR5 Smart Memory is required. For additional information, please see the: HPE DDR5 Smart Memory QuickSpecs

- For General Server Memory Population Rules and Guidelines and HPE Server Memory speed, see details here: http://www.HPE.com/docs/memory-population-rules
