CDU (Cooling Distribution Unit) For NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 by HPE 

The cooling distribution unit (CDU) is a liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger that is used to remove heat from HPE GB300 NVL72 by HPE.

The CDU uses a secondary loop to circulate a heat transfer liquid to the cold plates. The heat captured in the secondary loop is transferred to the facilities primary loop via a liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger. The CDU is designed to circulate and control the heat transfer fluid to the manifolds that are in each rack.

The in-row CDU is rated for 1.3 MW of cooling. One CDU supports a maximum of 8 racks.

HPE supports overhead (top feed) and underfloor (bottom feed) secondary loops configurations. A spacer manifold can be used for racks that do not need liquid cooling

Overhead (Top Feed) Configuration with Single Rack Spacer

Underfloor (Bottom Feed) Configuration

Operating Systems and Virtualization Software Support for HPE Servers 

Currently, the only supported OS with NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 by HPE is:

- Ubuntu 24.04 

HPE Server UEFI (under development - subject to change)  

Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) is an industry standard that provides better manageability and more secured configuration than the legacy ROM while interacting with your server at boot time. HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers have a UEFI Class 3 implementation and support UEFI Mode only.

Notes: The UEFI System Utilities tool is analogous to the HPE ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) of legacy BIOS. For more information, please visit http://www.HPE.com/servers/uefi.

UEFI enables numerous new capabilities specific to HPE ProLiant servers such as:

- Secure Boot and Secure Start enabled for enhanced security

- Embedded UEFI Shell

- Operating system specific functionality

- Mass Configuration Deployment Tool using iLO RESTful API that is Redfish API Conformant

- Support for > 2.2 TB (using GPT) boot drives

- PXE boot support for IPv6 networks

- USB 3.0 Stack

- Workload Profiles for simple performance optimization 

UEFI Boot Mode only

- TPM 2.0 Support

- iSCSI Software Initiator Support.

- NVMe Boot Support

- HTTP/HTTPs Boot support as a PXE alternative.

- Platform Trust Technology (PTT) can be enabled.

- Boot support for option cards that only support a UEFI option ROM 

Notes: For UEFI Boot Mode, boot environment and OS image installations should be configured properly to support UEFI.

Industry Standard Compliance (under development - subject to change)

- ACPI 6.3 Compliant

- IPMI 2.0

- PCIe 4.0 Compliant

- PCIe 5.0 Compliant

- PXE Support
