How to check the Blade or Rack server configuration is correct.

[SrikanthV]

Is there any way we can check that the configuration that we built is compatible or will work with Blade or rack server.

e.g if I choose different combinations of CPU and Memory, how can we make sure the combination is correct?

Hello,

You will need to refer to the "Spec sheet" for the blade/model for supported configurations.

For Example:

Cisco UCS C240 M5 Rack Server Spec Sheet

An easy way to check if your hardware configuration fits is using Cisco Commerce:

There you can create estimates and configure your hardware with the parts you wish. There is also a validity check implemented that notifies you if you have forgotten something or a part is not correct in your configuration.
