Network ControllerFour (4) embedded NIC ports, plus one (1) additional management NIC port consisting of:

One (1) embedded NC326i Dual Port Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapter

Two (2) embedded NC373i Multifunction Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapters with TCP/IP Offload Engine, iSCSI boot, and optional accelerated iSCSI

One (1) additional 10/100 network adapter dedicated to iLO 2 Management
NOTE: The Gigabit Ethernet adapters transmit from the server only at 2000 Mbps, full duplex per port. However, within a Linux environment, the speed can be reduced or "throttled" using a feature available within the Linux operating system; see the white paper at https://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/4AA1-5513ENW.pdf for more information.
NOTE: The iSCSI offload feature of the embedded multifunction adapter requires the HP Accelerated iSCSI Pack. For more information, please see the QuickSpecs at: https://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12466_div/12466_div.html


Multifunction Networking

The embedded multifunction NC373i combines standard Gigabit Ethernet networking, TCP/IP offload engine (TOE) acceleration, iSCSI boot, and optional iSCSI acceleration into a single adapter.

  • TOE moves the processing of data in the TCP protocol stack from the server CPU to the network card, freeing CPU cycles for other activities. With TOE, network communications are improved, and server efficiency is increased. The NC373i offers TOE for Microsoft® Windows 2003 environments.
  • The iSCSI network boot (iSCSI boot) allows the BL685c G5 to boot from a remote operating system (OS) image located on a storage area network (SAN) within a Red Hat or SUSE Linux environment. The BL685c G5 uses an iSCSI firmware image (iSCSI boot option ROM) making the remote disk drive appear as a local, bootable C: drive. The BL685c G5 is configured to connect to and boot from the iSCSI target disk on the network and download the OS image from the iSCSI target disk. The iSCSI boot option ROM is supplied by HP at no cost. The additional cost and mezzanine slot usage of an add-in iSCSI HBA card is not required. Additionally, the HP iSCSI boot solution includes scripts to significantly simplify the installation process.

Fibre Channel Support

Four optional Fibre Channel HBAs are supported by the HP ProLiant BL465c G5. Each mezzanine circuit board connects directly to the server blade system board. These Fibre Channel HBAs are available via option kits and must be ordered separately.

HBA mezzanine card option kits:

Emulex LPe1105-HP 4Gb FC HBA (403621-B21 403621-B21)

  • Based on the same field-proven ASIC, firmware, and driver technology as Emulex's renowned LPe1150 HBA, the Emulex LPe1105-HP is fully driver compatible with all Emulex HBAs
    Emulex LPe 1205-HP 8Gb FC HBA (456972-B21)

QLogic QMH2462 4Gb FC HBA (403619-B21 403619-B21)

  • Uses common drivers which means that customers can standardize on one QLogic driver whether they are using the QMH2462 or other HBAs powered by QLogic

Emulex and QLogic Fibre Channel HBAs for HP BladeSystem c-Class feature:

  • Optimal performance utilizing PCI Express
  • 4/2/1Gb/s auto negotiating speeds (4Gb HBAs)
  • 8/4/2Gb/s auto negotiation speeds (8Gb HBAs)
  • Dual-ports for redundant path connections
  • Up to two FC HBAs per server blade providing redundant FC HBA support
  • Optimized for HP StorageWorks and supported by third party SAN vendors
  • Support for Microsoft® Windows® and Linux operating system environments

Compatible SAN

HP ProLiant BL685c G5 server blades are optimized for HP StorageWorks MSA, EVA, and XP
HP ProLiant BL685c G5 server blades are compatible with select third party SANs (please see blade storage page for more details:
https://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/blades/components/c-class-sans.html


HP Virtual Connect

HP Virtual Connect simplifies server connectivity to LANs and SANs, and reduces costs. Unique HP Flex-10 technology makes maximum use of 10Gb Ethernet bandwidth by allowing multiple ports within a single Industry Standard connection that can be dynamically tuned to meet individual server requirements. HP Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager (VCEM) provides a central console to administer connections and workloads for thousands of servers. For more information on Virtual Connect Ethernet, Fibre Channel and management options see www.hp.com/go/virtualconnect

Memory

NOTE: Memory configurations listed do not apply to "Factory Integrated Models".
DIMM installation guidelines:

  1. All DIMMs must be PC2-5300 Registered DDR2 DIMMs (667 MHz) or PC2-6400 Registered DDR2 DIMMs (800 MHz).
  2. PC2-6400 DDR2 DIMMs are only supported with the AMD Opteron processor Models 8376 HE, 8382, and 8384.
  3. Both DIMM slots in a memory bank must be populated.
  4. Banks must be populated in sequential alphabetic order, starting with bank A.
  5. Both DIMMs in a memory bank must be identical. Install identical DIMMs as pairs only, starting with DIMM socket 1, bank A.
  6. Multiple advanced memory protection (AMP) modes are supported, based on DIMM population and RBSU selection. The server blade defaults to Advanced ECC.
  7. DIMMs must be installed in decreasing capacity with the largest DIMMs installed in the banks furthest away from each processor.
  8. DIMM banks are active only when the corresponding processor socket is populated.
