U rack server. The latest seventh generation version clearly has a lot to live up to, but it aims to add even more features to the mix with a high priority on flexibility, management and power monitoring. Remote management is a key area of focus for HP and this is one of the first Pro. Liant servers weve seen with the new i. HPs ProLiant DL380 G7 is a standard setter in so many areas. It not only has lots of storage capacity for a 2U rack server, but also excellent expansion potential. View and Download HP ProLiant DL380p user manual online.

HP claims its remote control is eight times faster than the i. LO2 and virtual media services are over three times faster. Its integrated Windows remote console can be more easily scaled to stretch across multiple monitors and the Linux version of the console has more features than previous versions. Access security for i. LO controllers has always been good, but this now gets beefed up even further with AES hardware encryption. HP still insists on keeping the best i. LO features back as an advanced upgrade. An increasing number of vendors are providing essential support functions such as server remote control as standard, but to get these on the i. LO3 chip you must buy an upgrade license. Youll also need this upgrade if you want the power management and video playback features. The former provides graphs and analysis of power consumption plus regulation and capping controls whilst the latter can capture events such as the boot up process and allow you to view it at your leisure from the i. LO Video Player utility. During testing we confirmed that the new remote control services are noticeably faster with a mouse action that exhibited little or no lag. The new Windows remote console could be smoothly stretched and shaped to whatever dimensions we desired. For general server and network device management, HPs Insight Control Edition ICE software is provided. This can manage HP servers with Insight agents installed, as well as other SNMP compliant devices. ICE provides a smart browser interface with detailed reports on system operations and asset management. You can remotely upgrade firmware on servers, use thresholds on critical components to send alerts and, with the optional Power Manager upgrade, monitor server power consumption, processor performance or inlet air temperatures and view historical graphs. HP has made some significant changes internally to the new server as the massive metal plate that shrouded the entire motherboard in the G6 has been turfed out and replaced with a smaller version. This only covers the rear half of the motherboard, is used to support the riser cards and is much easier to remove and replace. The huge cooling shroud in the G6 also gets its marching orders. Theres now a smaller transparent cover that fits around the centralised processor sockets rather than over them. This arrangement seems to work well. With four of the six possible hot plug cooling fans in place, we found this server to be nearly silent. As with the G6, you have a good choice of expansion options the single riser has three PCI Express slots. You can add a second riser and in both cases you can have versions with a mix of PCI Express and PCI X slots. For sheer storage capacity, the DL3. IBMs new System x. M3 has just caught up as it now has the same number, but Dells Power. Edge R7. 10 2. U rack server still lags behind with room for eight SFF drives. However, upgrading to sixteen drives requires replacing the blanking plate on the front panel with a second eight drive bay. This means you will have to remove the optical drive and youll also need to add an extra Smart Array or Smart SAS expander PCI E card to manage it. Thanks to the embedded Smart Array P4. RAID controller, there are eight SAS connectors on the motherboard. The 2. 56. MB cache module has a plug for an optional battery backup pack. Virtualisation fans get a nod as the server has both internal USB and SD memory card slots for booting from an embedded hypervisor. However, if you want boot media redundancy than check out the Power. Edge R7. 10 as Dell upgraded this server earlier this year with dual internal SD card slots where one automatically keeps a backup of the primary card. The price for the review system includes a single 4. W hot plug power supply but you can fit two for redundancy. HP also offers 4. W, 7. 50. W or 1. W versions and you can choose from any of them as they all share a common slot form factor. Power consumption was very low, although bear in mind the review system had a fairly basic specification. With Server 2. 00. Enterprise R2 in idle we measured a draw of only 7. W. With the single E5. Xeon processor under load from Si. Soft Sandra this peaked at a mere 1. W. For a 2. U rack server, the Pro. Liant DL3. 80 G7 is capable of taking on a wide range of roles. Its not as good value as Dells Power. Edge R7. 10, but it beats that server hands down for storage capacity and expansion potential. HPs management package is also easily the best on the market with the i. LO3 controller providing a unique set of features. HPs ICE software is easier to deploy than Dells Management Console and is capable of providing superior power management and monitoring functions.
