Cisco UCS C22 M3 High-Density SFF Rack-Mount Server 2

OVERVIEW

OVERVIEW

The Cisco® UCS C22 M3 small form factor (SFF) drive Rack Server combines economics and a density-optimized feature set from entry level enterprise to SMB with applications such as scale out, virtualization, IT and web infrastructure, VPN servers, file/print servers, and appliances.

Building on the success of the Cisco UCS C-Series Servers, the Cisco UCS C22 M3 server and the Cisco 1225

VIC further extend the capabilities of the Cisco UCS portfolio in a 1RU form factor with the addition of the

Intel® Xeon® E5-2400 v2 and E5-2400 series processor family CPUs, which delivers the best combination of performance and efficiency gains. In addition, the Cisco UCS C22 M3 server offers 12 DIMM slots, up to eight disk drives, two PCIe slots and two 1 Gigabit Ethernet LAN-on-motherboard (LOM) ports that provide both price/performance in a compact 1U form factor.

Approved Configurations

(1) 1-CPU configurations:

■ Select any one CPU listed in

(2) 2-CPU Configurations:

Table 3 .

■

Select two identical CPUs from any one of the rows of Table 3 on page 11

.

Caveats

■

■

■

You can select either one CPU or two identical CPUs.

If you select one CPU, only one PCIe slot (the full-height slot on riser 1) is available for use.

For optimal performance, select DIMMs with the highest clock speed for a given processor

(see Table 3 on page 11

). If you select DIMMs whose speeds are lower or higher than that shown in the tables, suboptimal performance will result.



STEP 3 SELECT MEMORY

Figure 4

The standard memory features are:

■

■

DIMMs

— Clock speed: 1600 or 1333 MHz

— Ranks per DIMM: 1, 2, or 4

— Operational voltage: 1.35 V or 1.5 V

— Registered ECC DDR3 DIMMS (RDIMMS), unregistered DIMMs (UDIMMs), or load-reduced DIMMs (LRDIMMs)

Memory is organized with three memory channels per CPU, with up to two DIMMs per channel, as shown in

Figure 4

.

C22 M3 SFF Memory Organization



Select DIMMs

Select the memory configuration. The available memory DIMMs are listed in

Table 4

.

NOTE: When memory mirroring is enabled, the memory subsystem simultaneously writes identical data to two channels. If a memory read from one of the channels returns incorrect data due to an uncorrectable memory error, the system automatically retrieves the data from the other channel. A transient or soft error in one channel does not affect the mirrored data, and operation continues unless there is a simultaneous error in exactly the same location on a DIMM and its mirrored

DIMM. Memory mirroring reduces the amount of memory available to the operating system by 50% because only one of the two populated channels provides data.

Select the memory mirroring option (N01-MMIRROR) as shown in Table 4 on page 14 .

NOTE: System performance is optimized when the DIMM type and quantity are equal for both CPUs.



Caveats

■

■

■

■

■

■

Do not mix 1333 MHz and 1600 MHz DIMMs

Do not mix DIMM types (RDIMM, LRDIMM, or UDIMM)

Do not select more than two different types of DIMMs (only two PID types allowed)

For 2-CPU configurations, install a minimum of 2 DIMMs (one per CPU).

If you use different sizes of DIMMs, the quantity of each size of DIMM must be even (2, 4, or

6). For example, 4 UCS-MR-1X082RY-A DIMMs and 6 UCS-MR-1X162RY-A DIMMs. Also, the sum of all PIDs must adhere to the maximum quantity rule of 12 DIMMs for 2-CPU systems.

By default, all DIMMs run at 1.35 V, which yields 1333-MHz memory speeds. To run the memory DIMMS at 1600 MHz, you need to go into the BIOS or set the policy with UCSM

(service profile) to run in Performance Mode. This forces the DIMMs to operate at 1.5 V and yields 1600-MHz speeds, provided:

— The DIMMs are 1600-MHz devices

— The CPUs chosen support 1600-MHz operation.

NOTE: 32 GB LRDIMMs run at a maximum speed of 1333 MHz for 1 DPC and 2 DPC even though their specified maximum speed is 1600 MHz.

NOTE: In this server, 4 GB UDIMMs run slower than their specified maximum speed of

1600 MHz. In addition, the following rules apply to UDIMMs:

■

■

1 DPC: 1333 MHz is supported at 1.35 V and 1.5 V

2 DPC: 1066 MHz is supported at 1.35 V and 1.5 V

For more information regarding memory, see CPUs and DIMMs, page 49

.



STEP 4 SELECT RAID CONFIGURATION

NOTE: If you do not select a PCIe RAID controller or one of the embedded RAID upgrade options, you will have an embedded SATA-only RAID controller that supports up to four SATA-only drives (RAID 0, 1, 10)

NOTE: When creating a RAID volume, follow these guidelines:

■

■

■

Use the same capacity for each drive in the volume

Use either all SAS drives or all SATA drives

Use either all HDDs or all SSDs

NOTE: The number of RAID groups (virtual drives) supported per controller is as follows (note however, that this server can have a maximum of only eight internal physical drives):

■

■

■

LSI MegaRAID SAS 9270CV-8i RAID controller card = 64

LSI MegaRAID 9240-8i RAID controller card = 16


The RAID controller choices are:

(1) Embedded RAID (on motherboard)\

NOTE: Embedded RAID is not available with VMWare.

NOTE: The RAID configuration options listed in

Table 6 on page 18

are not available if you choose embedded RAID (in this case, you must configure RAID yourself using separate software).

(2) PCIe RAID controllers

Cisco can provide factory-configured RAID systems depending on the RAID controller chosen and the number of drives ordered. Factory-configured RAID options are listed with each RAID card description.

RAID levels 50 and 60 are supported, although they are not available as factory-configured RAID options.



Select RAID Options

Select one RAID controller (either embedded RAID in

Table 5

— Note that only a single Cisco 1225 Virtual Interface Card (VIC) card is supported and it must be installed in the full-length, full-height PCIe slot (slot 1) on riser 1, which is the only slot that supports NCSI. So take this into account when populating RAID controller cards. You can have either a PCIe RAID controller or a VIC card in slot 1.

— Slot 2 is not supported in 1-CPU systems.

In 2-CPU configurations, there are two PCIe slots available (one full-height slot, slot 1, and one half-height slot, slot 2).

— If you choose embedded RAID, you can select up to two optional PCIe cards from

Table 8 on page 24 to be installed in slots 1 and 2.

— If you choose a PCIe RAID controller from Table 5 on page 18 , it will be installed in

slot 2 by default and you will be able to select one additional optional PCIe card

from Table 8 on page 24

to be installed in slot 1.

The optional PCIe RAID controllers are all half-height. If you choose one of these cards in a

2-CPU configuration, only the full-height PCIe card slot will be available for an additional optional PCIe card.

Note that only a single Cisco UCS 1225 Virtual Interface Card (VIC) card is supported and it must be installed in the full-length, full-height PCIe slot (slot 1) on riser 1, which is the only slot that supports NCSI. So take this into account when populating RAID controller cards.

You can choose only one type of RAID controller, either embedded RAID or a PCIe RAID controller. If you choose embedded RAID, slot 1 in a 1-CPU system and slots 1 and 2 in a

2-CPU system are available for adding optional PCIe cards.

For PCIe RAID controllers, 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, depending on the RAID controller selected, although they are not available as configuration options.

Caveats

■

■

■

■

Only a single Cisco UCS 1225 Virtual Interface Card (VIC) card is supported and it must be installed in the full-height slot of riser 1, which is the only slot that supports NCSI.

All PCIe cards will fit in either riser 1 or riser 2, except the VIC card, which must be installed in the full-height slot of riser 1. The Cisco 1225 VIC card must be plugged into slot 1, which supports NCSI.

Additional considerations for the Cisco 1225 VIC card:

— Supports 10G SFP+ optical and copper twinax connections

— The server supports installation of only one Cisco VIC 1225 card and it is supported only in PCIe slot 1. Slot 1 can operate while the server is in standby power mode.

— Requires that the server has CIMC firmware version 1.4(6) or later installed. There is a heartbeat LED on the top of the card that indicates when firmware is active.

— To use this card for UCS integration (Cisco UCS Manager mode) with Cisco UCS

Manager 2.1(0) or later, the minimum card-firmware and uboot image level is

2.1(0.306).

To help ensure that your operating system is compatible with the card you have selected, check the Hardware Compatibility List at this URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps10477/prod_technical_reference_list.html



STEP 7 ORDER OPTIONAL NETWORK CARD ACCESSORIES

Copper twinax cables and SFP optical modules may be ordered to support the two-port network cards that are available with the server.

Choose Optional Twinax Cables

Table 9 lists the copper twinax cables available for the PCIe cards. You can choose cable lengths

of 1, 3, 5, 7, or 10 meters. The two longer cables (7 and 10 meters) are active, which means that they contain active components within the SFP+ housing to improve signal quality.

STEP 9 ORDER POWER SUPPLY

The C22 M3 server accommodates one power supply. A lightly loaded server can operate from one 450 W power supply. A fully loaded server might need to be powered with a 650 W power supply (see

Table 13

).

Prior to making a power supply selection, the UCS Power Calculator should be run to determine the right size power supply for your server configuration. A fully configured C22 M3 server may require the 650 W power supply. The UCS Power Calculator can be found at the following link: https://mainstayadvisor.com/Go/Cisco/Cisco-UCS-Power-Calculator.aspx

Table 14

to order a cable management arm.

Table 14 Cable Management Arm


UCSC-CMA1

PID Description

Cable Management Arm for C22 rack servers

NOTE: If you order and install a cable management arm, you will need the longest power cable available.

For more information about the cable management arm, see the Cisco UCS C22 M3 Installation

and Service Guide at this URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/unified_computing/ucs/c/hw/C22/install/C22.pdf



STEP 11 ORDER A TRUSTED PLATFORM MODULE

Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is a computer chip (microcontroller) that can securely store artifacts used to authenticate the platform (server). These artifacts can include passwords, certificates, or encryption keys. A TPM can also be used to store platform measurements that help ensure that the platform remains trustworthy. Authentication (ensuring that the platform can prove that it is what it claims to be) and attestation (a process helping to prove that a platform is trustworthy and has not been breached) are necessary steps to ensure safer computing in all environments.

The TPM ordering information is listed in Table 15 .

Unified Computing Drive Retention Service

With the Cisco Unified Computing Drive Retention (UCDR) Service, you can obtain a new disk drive in exchange for a faulty drive without returning the faulty drive. In exchange for a Cisco replacement drive, you provide a signed Certificate of Destruction (CoD) confirming that the drive has been removed from the system listed, is no longer in service, and has been destroyed.

Sophisticated data recovery techniques have made classified, proprietary, and confidential information vulnerable, even on malfunctioning disk drives. The UCDR service enables you to retain your drives and ensures that the sensitive data on those drives is not compromised, which reduces the risk of any potential liabilities. This service also enables you to comply with regulatory, local, and federal requirements.

If your company has a need to control confidential, classified, sensitive, or proprietary data, you

might want to consider one of the Drive Retention Services listed in Table 24 .

NOTE: Cisco does not offer a certified drive destruction service as part of this service.

CPUs and DIMMs

Physical Layout

Each CPU has three DIMM channels:

■

■

CPU1 has channels A, B, and C

CPU2 has channels D, E, and F

Each DIMM channel has two banks: Bank 1 and Bank 2. The blue-colored DIMM banks are for Bank 1 and the black-colored are for Bank 2.

As an example, DIMM slots A1, B1, and C1 belong to Bank 1, while A2, B2, and C2 belong to Bank 2.

Figure 7 shows how banks and channels are physically laid out on the motherboard. The DIMM slots on the

top (channels A, B, and C) are associated with CPU 1, while the DIMM slots on the bottom (channels D, E, and F) are associated with CPU 2. Bank 1 slots (blue) are populated before Bank 2 slots (black).

Memory Population Rules

When considering the memory configuration of your server, you should consider the following items:

■

■

■

■

■

■

■

Each channel has two DIMM slots (for example, channel A = slots A1 and A2).

— Each channel can operate with one or two DIMMs installed.

— If a channel has only one DIMM, populate slot 1 first (the blue slot).

When both CPUs are installed, populate the DIMM slots of each CPU identically.

— Fill blue slots in the channels first: A1, D1, B1, E1, C1, F1

— Fill black slots in the channels second: A2, D2, B2, E2, C2, F2

Any DIMM installed in a DIMM socket for which the CPU is absent is not recognized.

For optimum performance, populate at least one DIMM per memory channel per CPU.

When populating DIMM slots, multiples of 6 DIMMs are best for achieving optimum performance, since there are 3 memory channels per CPU socket and 2 CPUs must be populated.

At 1 DPC and 2 DPC, 1600-MHz DIMMS will run at 1600 MHz (provided the CPU supports 1600

MHz DIMMs) and 1333-MHz DIMMs will run at 1333 MHz.

When mixing DIMMs, the following rules need to be followed:

— When mixing DIMMs of different densities (sizes), populate DIMMs with the highest density first. For example, if you have to mix 16 GB with 8 GB DIMMs, populate 16

GB DIMMs in blue slots (or bank 1) and then 8 GB in black slots (or bank 2).

— When mixing DIMMs with different ranks, populate DIMMs with the higher rank first.

For example, populate 16 GB 2R or 8 GB 2R before 4 GB 1R DIMMs.

— DIMMs of different sizes (4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB) can be mixed within a channel. Total memory size in each single channel should be the same. For example, if you are mixing 4 GB and 8 GB DIMMs to achieve total 72 GB (6x8 GB + 6x4 GB) for a server, then populate blue slots with 8 GB DIMMs and black slots with 4 GB DIMMs and total memory size should be 12 GB for each of the 3 channels for both CPUs.

— When mixing DIMMs, all the DIMMs in the server must be the same speed.



Recommended Memory Population

This section explains the recommended DIMM population order rules for the C22 M3 server.

■

■

■

All DIMMs must be DDR3 DIMMs.

Mixing of Registered and Unbuffered DIMMs is not allowed per platform.

Do not mix 1333-MHz DIMMs with 1600-MHz DIMMs.

Follow Table 27

when populating DIMMs in the server.

Notes . . .

1. For 48 GB, there are two possible sweet spot configurations:

6 x 8 GB occupies 1 DPC, so there is a possibility of increasing total memory size in the system (beyond 48 GB) by going to 2 DPC while still maintaining memory speed at 1600 MHz.

If there is no plan to increase total memory size in the system (beyond 48 GB), then 12 x 4GB is more price effective at this time.

2. For 96 GB, there are two possible optimal configurations:

6 x 16GB occupies 1 DPC, so there is a possibility of increasing total memory size in the system (beyond 96 GB) by going to 2 DPC while maintaining the maximum memory speed at 1600 MHz.

12 x 8GB gives the peak performance for this configuration and is recommended if there is no plan of increasing the total memory in the future.

Low-Voltage DIMM Considerations

The C22 M3 server can be ordered with low-voltage (1.35 V) DIMMs only. Note the following considerations:

■

■

■

Low-voltage DIMMs within the server must have the identical manufacturer, type, speed, and size.

Low-voltage DIMMs and standard-voltage DIMMs can be mixed in the same server. Note that this causes the system BIOS to default to standard-voltage operation (Performance Mode).

That is, the server cannot operate in Power Saving Mode unless all DIMMs are low-voltage

DIMMs.

CPUs that have a maximum memory frequency less than 1333 MHz support low-voltage

DIMMs operating in Power Saving Mode only, and do not support Performance Mode.



RAID Summary

■

■

ROM5 and ROM55 embedded RAID upgrade options each support up to 8 drives.

The LSI MegaRAID SAS 9270CV-8i, 9240-8i, and 9220-8i RAID controller cards each support up to 8 drives

NOTE: If you do not select a PCIe RAID controller or one of the embedded RAID upgrade options (ROM5 or ROM55), you will have an embedded SATA-only RAID controller that supports up to four SATA-only drives (RAID 0, 1, 10).

See Table 29

for a summary of the supported RAID configuration options.

Notes . . .

1. If you want to boot from a device other than the 9270CV-8i, 9240-8i, or 9220-8i MegaRAID PCIe cards, you can leave the cards installed. Just disable the OPROM for their slots, and the system will boot even with the cards installed.

2. A = available slot, O = occupied slot, U = unsupported slot (slot 2 is not supported in 1-CPU systems)

3. The OPROM is enabled for the default PCIe RAID controller slots. If you want to enable a different slot, you must go into the BIOS and enable the OPROM for the desired slot and disable the OPROM for the default PCIe slot (see

Figure 8 on page 56

).

RAID Option ROM (OPROM) Settings

The server contains an Option ROM (OPROM) for the PCIe slots. The server has a finite amount of option

ROM with which it can boot up devices. Go into the BIOS and disable the OPROM on the PCIe slots not used for booting so that resources are available for the slots that are used for booting. An example OPROM BIOS screen is shown in

Figure 8

.

PDUs

Cisco RP Series Power Distribution Units (PDUs) offer power distribution with branch circuit protection.

Cisco RP Series PDU models distribute power to up to 24 outlets. The architecture organizes power distribution, simplifies cable management, and enables you to move, add, and change rack equipment without an electrician.

With a Cisco RP Series PDU in the rack, you can replace up to two dozen input power cords with just one.

The fixed input cord connects to the power source from overhead or under-floor distribution. Your IT equipment is then powered by PDU outlets in the rack using short, easy-to-manage power cords.

The C-series severs accept the zero-rack-unit (0RU) PDU. See Figure 10 ).
