At A Glance

If your company is like most companies, you have been adding servers, storage, and networking devices to keep pace with your business demands. You could be spending upwards of 70 percent of your IT budget on operations and maintenance, which means you are spending 30 percent or less on innovation that is critical to growing your business. You don't have to be captive to unmanageable IT sprawl. Solutions are available today to help you realign traditional technology silos into virtual pools shared by any application and flexible enough to change as business needs evolve.

By moving beyond a product-centric approach towards a service-centric private cloud model, you can simplify your IT infrastructure. You can build a virtualized, highly automated environment with pools of shared resources that can be leveraged on demand. In addition, you can safely burst workloads to local and public cloud resources when you need additional computational headroom.

HP CloudSystem Matrix is the ideal platform for private cloud and IaaS that enables you to provision infrastructure and applications in minutes rather than months, resulting in total cost of ownership (TCO) savings of up to 56 percent. Built on HP Converged Infrastructure and the optional HP Cloud Service Automation for Matrix, CloudSystem Matrix offers a self-service infrastructure portal for auto-provisioning and built-in lifecycle management to optimize infrastructure, monitor applications, and increase uptime for your cloud and traditional IT.

HP CloudSystem Matrix

How to order HP CloudSystem Matrix

Ordering HP CloudSystem Matrix

The method for purchasing HP CloudSystem Matrix is simple. Start by ordering a HP CloudSystem Matrix Starter Kit, which contains the infrastructure needed for a fully-working environment supporting up to 16 HP ProLiant half-height server blades or 8 HP Integrity full-height server blades (or a mix of any of these blades). Add Expansion Kits now or in the future to expand your HP CloudSystem Matrix infrastructure with additional infrastructure and blades. The central management server (CMS) host implemented in the Starter Kit simply extends its domain to manage additional infrastructure that might be added by adding Expansion Kits.

NOTE: The Expansion Kit may also be purchased separately. Expansion Kits ordered separately will come with the Matrix Expansion Kit Integration Implementation Service.
NOTE: Expansion Kits purchased must be co-located with the Starter Kit to which they are connecting to.
NOTE: For detailed ordering information please see the Configuration Information Factory Integrated Models section of this QuickSpecs.
NOTE: Cloud Service Automation for Matrix software (CSA for Matrix) is an optional component and is not included with the base package CloudSystem Matrix.


With all HP CloudSystem Matrix Starter and Expansion Kit orders, the following services are included:

  • Factory services to default configure, rack, and cable the infrastructure in a rack,
  • Verify and update firmware for the entire solution being purchased (the CloudSystem Matrix kits and the supported blades and options purchased with those kits) to the latest current CloudSystem Matrix firmware release set. This ensures that the CloudSystem Matrix solution will leave the factory with the right levels of firmware needed for the end to end solution to be successful. (For specific version numbers supported and required, please refer to the HP CloudSystem Matrix Compatibility Chart on http://www.hp.com/go/matrixcompatibility)
  • Coordinate hand-off to Technology Services (TS) or authorized partner. A TS or partner project manager is assigned for managing pre-engagement and assigning a team of engineers to perform the implementation service at the customer's site.

Factory Express custom configuration services should be added to the order if an EVA configuration is also purchased in the same rack with the Starter (or Expansion) Kits, or if any other custom factory services are needed. Factory Express uses its standard processes for capturing customer intent and requirements, as well as providing order verification services.

While Factory Integration/Factory Express are building the CloudSystem Matrix environment for a given customer, an assigned project manager from Technology Services (TS) will start managing a team of TS engineers to begin planning the rollout of the implementation service, including engaging with the customer on environmental requirements and related details. TS engineers will start the actual implementation on the Matrix equipment as soon as possible after its arrival date at the customer site.

NOTE: The account team must initiate contact with a Factory Express Engagement Project Manager (EPM) to initiate the Factory Express processes, including communication of the Customer Intent Document (CID).

The Technology Services CloudSystem Matrix Starter Kit Implementation Service is detailed in a section below.

Rack Airflow Requirements

Rack 10000 G2 series cabinets
The increasing power of new high-performance processor technology requires increased cooling efficiency for rack-mounted servers. The HP 10000 G2 Series racks provide enhanced airflow for maximum cooling, allowing these racks to be fully loaded with servers using the latest processors.

NOTE: For operation with the DC Input Module the HP 10000 Series rack extension is required to allow DC power cabling to be installed.

CAUTION: CloudSystem Matrix infrastructures are best fulfilled by HP with the HP 10000 Series rack. However, if a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment:
  • Front and rear doors: If your 42U server rack includes closing front and rear doors, you must allow 830 square inches (5,350 sq cm) of holes evenly distributed from top to bottom to permit adequate airflow (equivalent to a required 64 percent open area for ventilation).
  • The clearance from face of rack to inside of the front door needs to be a minimum of 1.75".
  • Side: The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels of the rack needs to be a minimum of 2.75 inches (7 cm).
  • Depth: a minimum of 39.4 inches (1000mm) for AC power, 47 inches (1200mm) for DC power input
  • Adjustable rack rails are shipped with each enclosure:
    • Minimum rail length: 25 inches (635mm)
    • Maximum rail length: 34 inches (864mm)
CAUTION: Always use blanking panels to fill all remaining empty front panel U-spaces in the rack. This arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels will result in improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.

Central Management Server

HP CloudSystem Matrix Central Mgmt Svr based on DL360p Gen8 32GB 2P Server
NOTE: This is the default part number for the Matrix central management server (CMS), to host the management software. It may be substituted with another server configured per notes below and per CMS sizing, scalability, and redundancy preferences.

666224-B21

HP ProLiant DL360p Gen8 CMS server (PN 666224-B21) is configured as follows:

  • Dual processors - Intel® Xeon® E5-2640 processor
  • 32 GB (4 x 8GB) 1Rx4 PC3-12800R-11 Kit Registered DIMMs
  • HP P-Series Smart Array 1GB Flash Based Write Cache for P-series
  • FlexFabric 10Gb 2P 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331T Adapter
  • 2x HP 300GB 6G SAS 15K 2.5in SC ENT HDDs
  • HP 82Q 8Gb Dual Port PCI-e Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter
  • HP 9.5mm SATA JB DVDRW Optical Drive
  • HP DL360 3 Year, 24x7 4 Hour Response Hardware support
  • HP Insight Control Software (with 3 Year, 24x7 hardware and software support)

NOTE: Considerations for Central Management Server (CMS) - choice of rack-mount or blade server: HP offers a choice of rack-mounted ProLiant server (DL or ML) as central management server host for HP CloudSystem Matrix. HP recommends the rack-mounted ProLiant DL360p Gen8 as the CMS host (see configuration below) for those customers who desire to use all available and licensed enclosure blade bays for managed target blades and workloads. When multiple management server hosts are required for scalability and high availability or hosting partner management software, multiple ProLiant DL/ML servers or server blades (or even a combination of blade or rack-mounted servers) can be installed and configured to work together to manage the CloudSystem Matrix environment.

This CMS will be devoted to running the CloudSystem Matrix management software; other management software such as VMware vCenter Server should be installed on a separate server.

NOTE: Larger environments may warrant having multiple CMS servers for these reasons: scalability, high availability of the management server and data, and separation of database or management components for performance or security access reasons.

NOTE: If the recommended HP ProLiant DL360p Gen8 configuration above is not purchased, the customer agrees to supply or purchase other HP ProLiant rack-mount server(s) or HP ProLiant server blade(s) that meet the requirements. See also the CMS requirements in this Insight Software 6.3 Support Matrix Chapter 2 "Central Management Server Requirements" for more information: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c02537423/
c02537423.pdf


NOTE: This CMS should be implemented on a 64-bit Windows operating system.

 
Target server blades  
NOTE: It is highly recommended that at least four (4) additional HP ProLiant c-Class blades be ordered with each Starter Kit, since the Onsite Implementation Service includes provisioning of up to four (4) HP ProLiant blades, two of which are directly provisioned as physical servers and two of which are virtual machine hosts. See separate section on "CloudSystem Matrix Starter Kit Implementation Service" for details. All shipping HP ProLiant c-Class blades are supported except the HP ProLiant BL2x220c server blades. In addition, HP Integrity BL860c, BL870c & BL8x0c i2 server blades are supported.
NOTE: For server blade information, please visit: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/north_america/12534.html
NOTE: HP ProLiant server blades should be configured to connect via the Virtual Connect modules included in the CloudSystem Matrix kits. See the section below on Mezzanine options for further details.

Federated Central Management Servers for CloudSystem Matrix

To scale beyond a single CloudSystem central management server (CMS) server node limits (physical+virtual), a federated CMS model has been developed.

For more information on CloudSystem Matrix federated CMS implementations please refer to: http://h20195.www2.hp.com/V2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=4AA3-4721ENW&cc=us&lc=en

HP requires the following components when implementing a federated CMS solution:

  • Additional CMS servers - HP recommends HP CloudSystem Matrix Central Mgmt Svr based on DL360p Gen8, 32GB, 2P Server (PN 66224-B21) as each CMS when adding additional CloudSystem Matrix management servers. See Central Management Server section in this document for more information about this configuration.
  • HP Insight Control license on each CloudSystem Matrix CMS server. NOTE: The above server (PN 66224-B21) includes a license for Insight Control.
  • CloudSystem Matrix Implementation and Startup services for each additional CMS. Please see the Services section below in this QuickSpecs for additional details.

NOTE: Half-height servers should be populated from top and bottom from left to right (looking at the front of the enclosure). So the first two half-height servers would be placed in bays 1 & 9 the second two half-height servers would be placed in bays 2 & 10 and so on until the enclosure is full.

Mixed Configuration - Full Height and Half-Height Population rules
The BladeSystem c7000 enclosure is divided into 4 zones by the vertical support metalwork. Within each zone a removable divider is used to support half height devices. To install a full-height blade in any zone this divider must be removed. As a consequence a zone can only contain either full-height server blades or half-height server blades.
NOTE: Storage blades and tape blades can be installed in the same zone as both full-height and half-height server blades, a bracket ships with each SB40c tape blade that allows a half-height blade to be mounted on top of the tape blade.
NOTE: The lower tape or storage blade cannot be removed without first removing the upper half-height blade.
