Chapter 1: Hardware overview
This section contains the following topics:
•Hardware components
•Environmental and technical specifications
•About hardware upgrades
•About firmware revisions
This section contains information about the UCS C240 M4SX server configured for deployment into a
SimpliVity Federation.
For complete information about the server, see the Cisco UCS C240 M4SX Server Installation and
Service Guide, which you can download or view online at the following location:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/c/hw/C240M4/install/C240M4.pdf
Hardware components
Each OmniStack server provides computing, storage, and network resources to the virtual machines
(VMs) in the Federation. When you need more capacity or performance, you can add more OmniStack
servers to a Federation, with no disruption to users.
