1 About Your System System Overview Your system can include up to 16 half-height blades (server modules), eight full-height blades, or a mixture of the two blade types (see Figure 1-1, Figure 1-2, and Figure 1-3). To function as a system, a blade is inserted into a Dell PowerEdge M1000e enclosure (chassis) that supports power supplies, fan modules, a Chassis Management Controller (CMC) module, and at least one I/O module for external network connectivity. The power supplies, fans, CMC, optional iKVM module, and I/O modules are shared resources of the blades in the enclosure. NOTE: To ensure proper operation and cooling, all bays in the enclosure must be populated at all times with either a module or with a blank. About Your System 7

System Overview
Your system can include up to 16 half-height blades (server modules), eight
full-height blades, or a mixture of the two blade types (see Figure 1-1,
Figure 1-2, and Figure 1-3). To function as a system, a blade is inserted into a
Dell PowerEdge M1000e enclosure (chassis) that supports power supplies, fan
modules, a Chassis Management Controller (CMC) module, and at least one
I/O module for external network connectivity. The power supplies, fans,
CMC, optional iKVM module, and I/O modules are shared resources of the
blades in the enclosure.
NOTE:
To ensure proper operation and cooling, all bays in the enclosure must be
populated at all times with either a module or with a blank.
