1.4 Hardware Environment

The hardware conditions described in the table below must be met when using Resource Orchestrator.

Table 1.10 Required Hardware
Software	Hardware	Remarks
Manager	PRIMERGY BX series servers PRIMERGY RX series servers PRIMERGY TX series servers	The CPU must be a multi-core CPU. 4 GB or more of memory is necessary.
Agent	PRIMERGY BX620 S5 PRIMERGY BX620 S4 PRIMERGY BX920 S2 PRIMERGY BX920 S1 PRIMERGY BX922 S2 PRIMERGY RX100 S6 PRIMERGY RX100 S5 PRIMERGY RX200 S5 PRIMERGY RX200 S4 PRIMERGY RX300 S6 PRIMERGY RX300 S5 PRIMERGY RX300 S4 PRIMERGY RX600 S4 PRIMERGY TX150 S7 PRIMERGY TX150 S6 PRIMERGY TX200 S5 PRIMERGY TX300 S6 PRIMERGY TX300 S5 PRIMERGY TX300 S4 PRIMEQUEST 1000 series servers Other PC servers	When using servers other than the PRIMERGY BX series, it is necessary to mount an IPMI-compatible (1) server management unit (2). When the server type is "Physical", PRIMERGY TX series and PRIMEQUEST 1000 series servers cannot be used.

*1: Supports IPMI2.0.
*2: This usually indicates a BMC (Baseboard Management Controller).
For PRIMERGY, it is called iRMC(integrated Remote Management Controller).

The following hardware is required for admin clients:

Hardware	Remarks
ETERNUS DX8000 series ETERNUS DX400 series ETERNUS DX90 ETERNUS DX80 ETERNUS DX60 ETERNUS8000 series	-
ETERNUS4000 series	Model 80 and model 100 are not supported.
ETERNUS2000 series	-
NetApp FAS6000 series NetApp FAS3100 series NetApp FAS2000 series NetApp V6000 series NetApp V3100 series	Data ONTAP 7.3.3 or later (8.x.x is not supported)

When using storage management software, do not change or delete the content set for storage units by Resource Orchestrator. Insufficient disk space does not cause any problems for RAID group or aggregate creation.

When connecting storage units that can be connected to the physical servers of L-Servers, the following Fibre Channel switches can be used:
