Software RAID

Intel VROC SATA SW RAID

Notes:

- The embedded Intel Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel VROC) is the SATA software RAID controller supported in this server.  

- All models feature an embedded storage controller Intel VROC SATA.

- BIOS Default is SATA AHCI. Embedded Intel SATA VROC is disabled by default. Embedded Intel SATA VROC can be enabled in BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) for SW RAID features.

- For Linux users, HPE offers a solution that uses in-distro open-source software to create a two-disk RAID 1 boot volume. For more information visit: https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/project/lsrrb/

- RAID support – 0/1/5/10.

- RAID setting cannot be factory ordered/configured for use with Intel VROC SATA as Intel VROC SATA must be enabled in BIOS by customer.

- Intel VROC SATA does not support RAID volume creation with different form factors of drives (e.g., SFF + M.2)

- Intel VROC SATA RAID supports Windows Server and Linux, but does not support VMware.

- Intel VROC SATA will operate in UEFI mode, Windows OS environment, and Linux OS environment.

- Required to install AMS tools in OS for supporting drives thermal sensor reading for thermal fan control, otherwise may experience acoustic noise impact.

- Both Intel® Xeon® E processors and Intel® Pentium® processors support Intel® VROC SATA Raid.

- See HPE Support Center for additional information regarding installation of Intel® VROC (SATA RAID): Enabling Intel VROC (SATA RAID) for SATA or sSATA on BIOS/Platform configuration (RBSU)

• Windows Edition
• VMWare Edition
• Linux Edition

- Intel VROC SATA RAID cannot be created in Intelligent Provisioning. It must be installed manually.

- Intel VROC requires the server boot mode to be set to UEFI Mode.

- Obtain the Intel VROC downloads (drivers, GUI) specific for your system OS. For direct download links, see the OS-specific VROC guide: https://www.hpe.com/support/IntelVROC-Gen10Plus-docs

- Intel VROC supports RAID management though the following tools:

• Non-OS specific: UEFI System Utilities
• Windows: Intel VROC GUI, Intel VROC CLI.
• Linux: mdadm CLI

HPE Entry-Level Power Supplies provide lower-cost options for customers trying to balance their need for enterprise class efficiency and reliability while maintaining lowest possible hardware costs. The above mentioned Entry-Level power supply options have been designed specifically for HPE ProLiant DL20 Gen10 Plus server.

The HPE 290W Non-redundant Power Supply is the standard, non-redundant AC power supply and is optimized for the DL20 Gen10 Plus rack server.

HPE Flexible Slot (Flex Slot) Power Supplies share a common electrical and physical design that allows for hot plug, tool-less installation into HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus Performance Servers. Flex Slot power supplies are certified for high-efficiency operation and offer multiple power output options, allowing users to "right-size" a power supply for specific server configurations. This flexibility helps to reduce power waste, lower overall energy costs, and avoid "trapped" power capacity in the data center.

All pre-configured servers ship with a standard 6-foot IEC C-13/C-14 jumper cord (A0K02A). This jumper cord is also included with each standard AC power supply option kit. If a different power cord is required, please check the ProLiant Power Cables web page.

To review the power requirements for your selected system, please use the HPE Power Advisor Tool.

Notes: The UEFI System Utilities function is analogous to the HPE ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) of legacy BIOS. For more information, please visit http://www.hpe.com/servers/uefi.

UEFI enables numerous new capabilities specific to HPE ProLiant servers such as:

• Secure Boot and Secure Start enable for enhanced security
• Operating system specific functionality
• Support for > 2.2 TB (using GPT) boot drives
• USB 3.0 Stack
• Embedded UEFI Shell
