Server Deployment Models

1/2/4 RU individually managed devices Management packages for some level of automation Dual Power, Dual SAN, Mgmt, Prod, etc create 8+ I/O per server

Blade Enclosures

More efficient cabling and power usage (concentrated) Multiple I/O topologies within and external to the chassis Miniaturization for Memory, Mezz Cards, I/O Modules Management of chassis and blades, some higher level tie-ins

Cisco Data Center Ethernet allows fewer adapter’s to purchase and populate

Less power drawn within the server possible

Elimination of copper runs under the floor

to racks Reduction of fiber runs to the rack Reduction in cabling errors as count goes down

Service Profiles

MAC & WWN addresses for NICs & HBAs Boot order and BIOS parameter settings Firmware bundle for the various hardware components

Each profile can be individually created Profiles can be generated from a template

Firmware, addresses, connectivity info, and parameters in profile definition applied to blade hardware

Without profiles, blades are just anonymous hardware components

Consistent and simplified server deployment – “pay-as-you-grow” deployment

Configure once, purchase & deploy on an “as-needed” basis

Simplified server upgrades – minimize risk

Simply disassociate server profile from existing chassis/blade and associate to new chassis/blade

Dynamic server provisioning – reduce purchases by time-sharing servers

Re-purpose servers by changing profiles in an automated manner

Enhanced server availability – purchase fewer servers for HA

Use same pool of standby servers for multiple server types – simply apply appropriate profile during failover
