Cisco UCS 6324 Fabric Interconnect
The Cisco UCS 6324 provides management, LAN, and storage connectivity for the Cisco UCS 5108 Blade Server Chassis and
direct-connect rack-mount servers. It provides the same full-featured Cisco UCS management capabilities and XML API as
the full-scale Cisco UCS solution in addition to integrating with Cisco UCS Central Software and Cisco UCS Director.
direct-connect rack-mount servers. It provides the same full-featured Cisco UCS management capabilities and XML API as
the full-scale Cisco UCS solution in addition to integrating with Cisco UCS Central Software and Cisco UCS Director.
The Cisco UCS 6324 uses a cut-through network architecture that supports deterministic, low-latency, line-rate 10 Gigabit
Ethernet on all ports, with switching capacity of up to 500 Gbps independent of packet size and enabled services. Sixteen
10-Gbps links connect to the servers, providing a 20-Gbps link from each fabric interconnect to each server. The product
family supports Cisco low-latency lossless 10 Gigabit Ethernet unified network fabric capabilities, which increase the reliability,
efficiency, and scalability of Ethernet networks. The fabric interconnect supports multiple traffic classes over a lossless
Ethernet fabric from the blade through the interconnect. The solution achieves significant savings in total cost of ownership
(TCO) through the use of a Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)–optimized server design that enables consolidation of network
interface cards (NICs), host bus adapters (HBAs), cables, and switches.

Cisco UCS B200 M4 Blade Server
The enterprise-class Cisco UCS B200 M4 Blade Server extends the capabilities of the Cisco UCS portfolio in a half-width blade
form factor. The Cisco UCS B200 M4 uses the power of the latest Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 v3 series CPUs, with up
to 1536 GB of RAM (using 64-GB DIMMs), two solid-state disk (SSD) drives or hard-disk drives (HDDs), and connectivity with
throughput of up to 80 Gbps. The Cisco UCS B200 M4 mounts in a Cisco UCS 5100 Series Blade Server Chassis or Cisco
UCS Mini blade server chassis. It has a total of 24 slots for ECC registered DIMMs (RDIMMs) or load-reduced DIMMs (LR
DIMMs), for up to 1536 GB of total memory capacity (Cisco UCS B200 M4 configured with two CPUs using 64-GB DIMMs).
It supports one connector for the Cisco UCS VIC 1340 or 1240 adapter, which provides Ethernet and FCoE connectivity.

Cisco UCS VIC 1340
The Cisco UCS VIC 1340 is a 2-port 40 Gigabit Ethernet or dual 4-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet, FCoE-capable modular LAN
on motherboard (mLOM) designed exclusively for the M4 generation of Cisco UCS B-Series Blade Servers. When used in
combination with an optional port expander, the Cisco UCS VIC 1340 supports 2 ports of 40 Gigabit Ethernet.

The Cisco UCS VIC 1340 enables a policy-based, stateless, agile server infrastructure that can present over 256 PCI Express
(PCIe) standards-compliant interfaces to the host that can be dynamically configured as either NICs or HBAs. In addition, the
VIC supports Cisco Data Center Virtual Machine Fabric Extender (VM-FEX) technology, which extends the Cisco UCS fabric
interconnect ports to virtual machines, simplifying server virtualization deployment and management.

VMware vSphere 6.0
VMware vSphere 6.0, the industry-leading virtualization platform, empowers users to virtualize any application with confidence,
redefines availability, and simplifies the virtual data center. The result is a highly available, resilient, on-demand infrastructure
that is an excellent foundation for any cloud environment. This release contains many new features and enhancements, many of
which are industry-first features.

StorMagic SvSAN
StorMagic SvSAN is a software storage solution that enables enterprises to eliminate downtime for business-critical applications
at remote sites, where this disruption directly equates with loss in service and revenue. SvSAN helps ensure high availability
through a virtualized shared storage platform, so that these business-critical applications remain operational. This result is
achieved by using direct-attached or internal, cost-effective server storage, including SSD storage, and presenting the storage
as a virtual SAN (VSAN).

SvSAN supports the industry-leading hypervisors, VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V. It is installed as a virtual storage
appliance (VSA) and requires few server resources to provide the shared storage necessary to enable advanced hypervisor
features such as high availability and failover clustering, vMotion and Hyper-V live migration, and VMware Distributed Resource
Scheduler (DRS) and Microsoft Dynamic Optimization.

You can deploy SvSAN as a simple 2-node cluster. However, the flexibility of the architecture enables you to scale the
virtual infrastructure performance and capacity to meet your changing business needs without affecting service availability.
You simply add capacity to existing servers or by increase the size of the SvSAN cluster.
