    Similarly, a blade server blanking panel (N20-CBLKB1=) must be installed if you remove a half-width blade server (such as a UCS B22 M3 server) from a blade server chassis. These panels are required to maintain system temperatures at safe operating levels, and to keep dust away from system components.
  • Page 39: Cpu Removal And Installation ("Pick N Place") Tool Set

    Air baffles are designed to direct airflow through the server to maintain server temperature at a safe operating level. The UCS B22 M3 server comes shipped with two identical air baffles covering the DIMM socket areas of the server. These baffles must always remain installed during server operation. The Air Baffle Replacement Kit includes the two (identical) air baffles needed for one UCS B22 M3 server.

  • Page 41: Network Connectivity

    This section explains how the UCS B22 M3 server connects to Fabric Interconnects using the network I/O adapters in the UCS B22 M3 blade server and the Fabric Extender modules in the UCS 5108 blade server chassis. The UCS B22 M3 server plugs into the front of the UCS 5108 blade server chassis. The Fabric Extender modules plug into the back of the UCS 5108 series blade server chassis.
  • Page 42: Vic 1240 Adapter

    VIC 1240 Adapter The only adapter that can be plugged in to the VIC 1240 slot is the VIC 1240, a Cisco-designed PCIe-based adapter that in the UCS B22 M3 server provides up to four (depending on the Fabric Extender option chosen) 10 Gigabit Data Center Ethernet (DCE) network interfaces.
  • Page 43: Mezzanine Adapters

    Cisco UCS Storage Accelerators (such as memory cards) ■ NOTE: In a B22 M3 configured with 2 CPUs, if a UCS B22 M3 blade server does not have a VIC 1240 installed, the mezzanine slot is required to have a network adapter installed.

    Connectivity using the Cisco UCS 2208XP Fabric Extender The Cisco UCS 2208XP is the second-generation Fabric Extender, and shares the same form factor as the current UCS 2100 series. The 2208XP is backwards compatible with the UCS 5108 Blade serve chassis.
  • Page 45: Connectivity Using The Cisco Ucs 2104Xp Fabric Extender

    The option shown in Figure 13 demonstrates how a 1-CPU server is connected to the Cisco UCS 2104XP. One port from the VIC 1240 is channeled to 2104XP Fabric Extender A and one is channeled to 2104XP Fabric Extender B. The result is 10 Gbps of bandwidth to each Fabric Extender.
  • Page 46: B22 M3 Configured With 2 Cpus

    ■ Figure 14, there is no VIC 1240 adapter installed. In this case, a Cisco, Emulex, or QLogic I/O adapter must be installed in the adapter 2 slot. Ports A and B of the mezzanine adapter connect to the Fabric Extenders, providing 10 Gbps per port.
  • Page 47 2208XP Fabric Extender B. The result is 20 Gbps of bandwidth to each Fabric Extender. The Cisco UCS Storage Accelerator adapter in the adapter 2 slot has no network connectivity.
