Designed for hyperconverged infrastructures (HCI), plus for use as an edge and hybrid private cloud server, the Gigabyte H242-Z11 edge server offers 4x independent single socket server nodes. Each of the server nodes support an AMD EPYC 7001, 7002, or 7003 series processor with up to 64 cores, 8x DIMM sockets, and is allocated a single drive bay of the four supported on the front of the main chassis.
With 4x independent server nodes accessible from the front of the system, the Gigabyte H242-Z11 edge server delivers up to 4x 64 core processors and 8TB of memory in a 2U chassis. As an edge server, the system features a short chassis length, plus support for 5G networks. Power is provided by dual redundant 80 PLUS Platinum 1200W PSUs on the back of the system. System fans, storage and power is housed in the main chassis. The Gigabyte H242-Z10 offers all of the same features as the Gigabyte H242-Z11 but has 4x server nodes accessible from the back of the chassis.
Computation, memory and management functions are handled by the individual server nodes. With the revision 100 (rev. 100) each server node features a single 3rd generation AMD EPYC processor with up to 64 physical cores and 128 virtual threads. The processor supports 8x memory channels and up to 128 PCIe 4.0 lanes.
Each of the 4x server nodes has 8x memory module slots with one memory module per memory channel for optimal bandwidth. Standard registered (RDIMM) and load reduced (LDIMM) memory modules are supported with module sizes up to 128GB for up to 1TB with all slots loaded. Using 3DS RDIMM or LRDIMM memory modules, each server node can support up to 2TB of memory using a 256GB memory module in all 8 memory slots. With all server nodes at capacity, the system can support up to 8TB of memory.
There are only 4x storage bays on the front, right side of the chassis with one allocated to each of the four server nodes. Drive types supported include hot-swappable NVMe and SATA drives. Each server node also features 2x PCIe 3.0 x4 slots on the system board for M.2 drives. RAID and SAS drives are not supported on this system. Also supported are PCIe SSDs that can be hosted by the low profile PCIe slots at the front of each server node for increased storage capacity.
On each node, along with the 2x PCIe Gen3 x4 slots on the system board to host up to 2x PCIe M.2 drives, there are two low-profile PCIe slots for support of optional I/O controllers or PCIe based storage options. One of the low-profile slots has a PCIe gen 4.0 interface, and the other a PCIe Gen 3 interface. Both feature a x16 PCIe bus interface. A single open compute project (OCP) 2.0 slot on the front of the system provides various data transfer speeds and more ports with the additional of an OCP 2.0 card.
Each of the 4x server nodes on the H242-Z11 edge server offers an integrated management LAN port to access the Aspeed AST2500 baseboard management controller (BMC). Gigabyte also offers a few proprietary software management applications for both single servers and multiple server deployments, the Gigabyte Management Console and the Gigabyte Server Management (GSM).
As an edge server the Gigabyte H242-Z11 edge server, delivers the latest technology to tackle a number of mission critical applications. Each server node features 7001, 7002, or 7003-series AMD EPYC processors, plus up to 2TB of memory and support for 2x M.2 drives and a single NVMe U.2 or SATAIII drive in front. With all nodes outfitted to capacity that’s up to 256 processing cores and up to 8TB of memory in a short 2U chassis.
