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 Gen11 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.

The standard 6-foot IEC C-13/C-14 jumper cord (A0K02A) is included with each standard AC power supply option kit. If a different power cord is required, please check the ProLiant Power Cables web page. o review the power requirements for your selected system, please use the HPE Power Advisor Tool.

HPE Server UEFI

Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) is an industry standard that provides better manageability and more secured configuration than the legacy ROM while interacting with your server at boot time. HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers have a UEFI Class 2 implementation to support UEFI Mode.

Notes: The UEFI System Utilities tool 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
• Embedded UEFI Shell
• Operating system specific functionality
• Mass Configuration Deployment Tool using iLO RESTful API that is Redfish API Conformant
• Support for > 2.2 TB (using GPT) boot drives
• PXE boot support for IPv6 networks
• USB 3.0 Stack
• Workload Profiles for simple performance optimization

UEFI Boot Mode only:

• TPM 2.0 Support
• iSCSI Software Initiator Support.
• NVMe Boot Support
• HTTP/HTTPs Boot support as a PXE alternative.
• Platform Trust Technology (PTT) can be enabled.
• Boot support for option cards that only support a UEFI option ROM

Notes:  For UEFI Boot Mode, boot environment and OS image installations should be configured properly to support UEFI.

Industry Standard Compliance
