HPE GreenLake Central: HPE GreenLake Central is a management tool designed to provide a unified view of the usage, spending, and capacity planning across all workloads managed under HPE GreenLake. It offers comprehensive reporting and analytics, making it ideal for managing and optimizing hybrid IT environments.

HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 server is a versatile 2U rack server that delivers world-class performance and security for a wide range of workloads. The server supports up to two Intel Xeon Scalable processors with up to 28 cores per processor and up to 3 TB of memory. The server also offers a range of management, expansion, and security features, such as:

HPE iLO 5 software for remote management and monitoring

HPE Smart Array controllers for RAID configuration and data protection

HPE SmartMemory for enhanced performance and reliability

HPE Flexible Slot power supplies for efficiency and redundancy

HPE FlexibleLOM adapters for network connectivity options

HPE Persistent Memory for fast data access and analytics

HPE Secure Boot and Secure Start for firmware validation and protection

According to HPE, SmartSSD Wear Gauge is a feature that provides an estimate of the remaining useful life of an SSD drive based on its usage patterns1. It can help you monitor the health and performance of your SSD drives and plan for replacement or upgrade when needed1.

Library and Tape Tools and HPF StoreEver TapeAssure Advanced Software: This combination is correct, as Library and Tape Tools (L&TT) is a diagnostic tool that allows you to perform firmware upgrades, run tests, and verify data on tape devices. HPE StoreEver TapeAssure Advanced Software is a software that provides data integrity, performance, health, and utilization reports for tape drives and cartridges, and it works with L&TT to perform data verification2 .

Core Boosting technology uses a relaxed and optimized turbo profile that adapts the processor to specific use cases, configurations, and environments. Core Boosting processors take advantage of extra server power and thermal headroom provided by an innovative HPE voltage regulator design and by cooling technologies. Consequently, systems that have Core Boosting processors can alleviate common setbacks and maximize processor computing power.

However, Core Boosting option is only supported in ProLiant Gen10 servers with certain Intel processors1. The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 server data sheet2 lists the supported processors for Core Boosting as:

Intel Xeon Gold 6148 Processor (20 core, 2.4 GHz, 27.5 MB L3 cache)

Intel Xeon Gold 6154 Processor (18 core, 3.0 GHz, 24.75 MB L3 cache)

Intel Xeon Gold 6152 Processor (22 core, 2.1 GHz, 30.25 MB L3 cache)

Intel Xeon Platinum 8168 Processor (24 core, 2.7 GHz, 33 MB L3 cache)

Therefore, if your customer’s DL380 Gen10 servers are running workloads on more active cores at higher clock frequencies, they can benefit from Core Boosting technology if they have one of these supported Intel processors.

HPE ProLiant MicroServer Gen10 Plus: This server is designed for small and remote offices. It offers sufficient storage capacity and is cost-effective for small-scale deployments. It supports essential networking services and is suitable for environments with limited IT resources. The MicroServer Gen10 Plus is a compact and economical choice that provides the necessary performance and features for a small office setup.

According to HPE, SMU is a web-based interface that enables you to configure, monitor, and manage storage devices. It also provides performance monitoring and reporting for HPE MSA storage arrays1. With SMU, you can demonstrate the features and monitoring capabilities of the new MSA storage array to your customer.
