QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7420 Server Configuration Performance Tuning A cell should be configured with a multiple of 8 DIMMs. It takes 8 DIMMs to populate both Guidelines buses. Populating only one of the two memory buses on a cell board will deliver only half the peak memory bandwidth. Load memory equally across the available cell boards. If growth is planned for the system, then plan on configuring high density 4GB, 8-GB, or 16- GB modules to minimize future memory slot constraints. Memory Latenci

This means that you must have both board sets in order to access both halves of the peripheral bay. This also means that I/O paths are not shared, and disks are electrically isolated, providing for optimal isolation between partitions. PCI Backplane Fourteen of sixteen I/O card slots are supported by dual high-performance links. Each link is capable of providing 530 MB/s of bandwidth. This mea

QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7420 Server Configuration AC Power The HP 9000 rp7420 Server power consumption will vary greatly depending on the hardware Consumption configuration and the input line voltages supplied at customer sites. Because of the disparity of line voltages throughout the world it's best to represent power consumption in VA (Volt*Amperes). With power consumption being of high concern throughout the world, it's necessary to specify consumption in a couple of different ways. Maximum Theo

QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7420 Server Configuration Partitioning A hardware partition corresponds roughly to a single, standalone system. Each HP 9000 rp7420 Server can be subdivided into two partitions, each containing one cell that has minimal shared resources with the other cell (partition). Cells are grouped into physical structures called cabinets or nodes. Special programmable hardware in the cells defines the boundaries of a partition in such a way that the isolation is enforced from the actio
