DL1000 Multi Node server design for scale out computing The HP ProLiant DL1000 G6 Multi Node system is designed for scale out computing in environments where failover is handled at the application level and where hardware redundancy plays a smaller role. These are environments that typically require greater compute density and additional cost efficiencies. The HP ProLiant DL170h G6 server is the first server to launch in the HP ProLiant DL1000 system Multi Node series. The server can be used in a single node (DL170h), two-node (DL2x170h), or four-node configuration (DL4x170h) in the HP ProLiant h1000 G6 chassis. The DL1000 is mechanically unique in its chassis design, server node configuration, thermal management, and power supply utilization when compared to other ProLiant Intel-based G6 100-series DL traditional rack-mount servers. However, while the mechanical architecture of the DL1000 is unique, it uses the same HP certified components and management tools as the rest of the ProLiant 100-series G6 family. Chassis design The HP ProLiant h1000 G6 chassis can hold up to four half-width HP ProLiant DL170h G6 server nodes in a 2U space (Figure 8). The HP h1000 chassis provides shared power supplies and fans across all server nodes, as well as the flexibility to configure for various application demands. Figure 8.

DL1000 Multi Node server design for scale out computing
The HP ProLiant DL1000 G6 Multi Node system is designed for scale out computing in environments
where failover is handled at the application level and where hardware redundancy plays a smaller
role.
These are environments that typically require greater compute density and additional cost
efficiencies.
The HP ProLiant DL170h G6 server is the first server to launch in the HP ProLiant DL1000 system Multi
Node series. The server can be used in a single node (DL170h), two-node (DL2x170h), or four-node
configuration (DL4x170h) in the HP ProLiant h1000 G6 chassis. The DL1000 is mechanically unique
in its chassis design, server node configuration, thermal management, and power supply utilization
when compared to other ProLiant Intel-based G6 100-series DL traditional rack-mount servers.
However, while the mechanical architecture of the DL1000 is unique, it uses the same HP certified
components and management tools as the rest of the ProLiant 100-series G6 family.

The HP ProLiant h1000 G6 chassis can hold up to four half-width HP ProLiant DL170h G6 server
nodes in a 2U space (Figure 8). The HP h1000 chassis provides shared power supplies and fans
