1 Overview
The HP Integrity BL860c server blade is a dense, low-cost, c-Class enclosure based Intel Itanium
Dual-Core processor server blade. The BL860c server blade supports the HP-UX, HP OpenVMS,
Linux, and Windows operating systems. The BL860c server blade is designed for commercial
server blade customers deploying c-Class blade enclosures. The BL860c server blade is consistent
with other full-slot, single-width c-Class blades.
NOTE: This documentation is based on the assumption that the c-Class server blade enclosure
is powered on and running properly, and that the enclosure Onboard Administrator (OA iLO) is
operational.
Server Blade Overview
The server blade supports up to two Intel Itanium (200 MHz front side bus [FSB]) dual-core
processors. The server blade supports up to 48 GB of memory (using twelve DDR2 4 GB DIMMs),
two hot-pluggable serial-attached SCSI (SAS) disk drives, and up to three mezzanine I/O cards.
