	One (1) additional 10/100 network adapter dedicated to iLO 2 management NOTE: The Gigabit Ethernet adapters transmit from the server only at 2000 Mbps, full duplex per port. However, within a Linux environment, the speed can be reduced or "throttled" using a feature available within the Linux operating system; see the white paper at: http://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/4AA1-5513ENW.pdf for more information. NOTE: The iSCSI offload feature of the embedded multifunction adapter requires the HP Accelerated iSCSI Pack. For more information, please see the QuickSpecs at: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12466_div/12466_div.html

Multifunction Networking

The embedded multifunction NC370i combines standard Gigabit Ethernet networking, TCP/IP offload engine (TOE) acceleration, iSCSI boot, and optional accelerated iSCSI into a single adapter.

TOE moves the processing of data in the TCP protocol stack from the server CPU to the network card, freeing CPU cycles for other activities. With TOE, network communications are improved, and server efficiency is increased. The NC370i offers TOE for Microsoft® Windows 2000 and 2003 environments.
The iSCSI network boot (iSCSI boot) allows the BL465c G6 to boot from a remote operating system (OS) image located on a storage area network (SAN) within a Red Hat or SUSE Linux environment. The BL465c G6 uses an iSCSI firmware image (iSCSI boot option ROM) making the remote disk drive appear as a local, bootable C: drive. The BL465c G6 is configured to connect to and boot from the iSCSI target disk on the network and download the OS image from the iSCSI target disk. The iSCSI boot option ROM is supplied by HP at no cost. The additional cost and mezzanine slot usage of an add-in iSCSI HBA card is not required. Additionally, the HP iSCSI boot solution includes scripts to significantly simplify the installation process.

Memory

DIMM installation guidelines:

All DIMMs must be PC2-5300 Registered DDR2 DIMMs (667 MHz) or PC2-6400 Registered DDR2 DIMMs (800 MHz).
Both DIMM slots in a memory bank must be populated.
Both DIMMs in a memory bank must be identical.
Processor 1 memory bank A must always be populated.
DIMM banks are active only when the corresponding processor socket is populated.
If installing only one bank on a processor, populate the bank physically farthest from the processor.
If mixing DIMM sizes on the same processor, the largest capacity DIMMs must be populated in the bank physically farthest from the processor. The smallest capacity DIMMs must be populated in the bank physically nearest the processor.
For optimal performance in most applications, populate the first memory bank for every populated processor socket.
