the power consumption of an entire rack of ProLiant Gen8 servers. HP Location Discovery Services eliminates the tedious tasks of manually entering server locations in HP Systems Insight Manager and HP Insight Control. Processors We use Xeon E5-2600 series processors in 2P ProLiant Gen8 servers and - HP ProLiant DL380p | Innovative technologies in HP ProLiant Gen8 servers - Page 4
Core Microarchitecture Sandy Bridge. Xeon E5-2600 series processors in our ProLiant Gen8 servers have two, four, six, or eight cores that operate from 60 W (Xeon LP) to 135 W. These processors feature an integrated northbridge and memory controller. The processors work with Registered (R) DIMMs, - HP ProLiant DL380p | Innovative technologies in HP ProLiant Gen8 servers - Page 5
ProLiant Gen8 servers support HP SmartMemory and enhanced memory protection with HP Advanced Memory Error Detection Technology. HP SmartMemory HP SmartMemory is HP Qualified Memory that has unique performance and power consumption characteristics when installed in ProLiant Gen8 servers.

Power efficiency For ProLiant Gen8 servers, we developed HP Common Slot Platinum Plus and 750 W Common Slot -48VDC Power Supplies. These are the most efficient server power - HP ProLiant DL380p | Innovative technologies in HP ProLiant Gen8 servers - Page 7
HP -48VDC Common Slot Power Supplies The telecommunications industry has long used -48 V DC power distribution. Previous-generation HP 1200 W -48V CS Power Supplies operate at 90% efficiency. The latest HP CS 750 W -48VDC Power Supply for ProLiant Gen8 servers operates at 94% efficiency. It also has - HP ProLiant DL380p | Innovative technologies in HP ProLiant Gen8 servers - Page 8
options. HP ProLiant Smart Storage ProLiant Gen8 servers use HP Smart Array P-Series Controllers, HP Dynamic Smart Array B-Series Controllers, and H-Series Host Bus Adapters (HBAs). The servers also accommodate HP IO accelerators, which can drive down costs in high performance computing (HPC - HP ProLiant DL380p | Innovative technologies in HP ProLiant Gen8 servers - Page 9
the host processor and memory without impeding system performance. They also take advantage of hardware-RAID capabilities embedded on the server and optional FBWC. Smart Array B-Series and P-Series controllers support the following tools: Active Health Logging Array Configuration Utility (ACU) ACU - HP ProLiant DL380p | Innovative technologies in HP ProLiant Gen8 servers - Page 10

need system and firmware CDs. You only need the OS and application discs. This makes deploying ProLiant Gen8 servers up to three times faster than deploying previous-generation servers. If some time passes before you deploy a Gen8 server, you can use the built-in update manager to access HP.com - HP ProLiant DL380p | Innovative technologies in HP ProLiant Gen8 servers - Page 12
on every server. On ProLiant Gen 8 servers running HP SIM 7.0, users can assign the software and firmware versions that should be installed. The software column of the SIM system list indicates the status of the ProLiant server compared to the assigned baseline.
