Figure 4. Physical layout of the solution
The configuration outlined in this document is based on the design guidance of an HPE Converged Architecture 750 foundation model which offers an improved time to deployment and tested firmware recipe. The recipe can be retrieved at https://psnow.ext.hpe.com/doc/a00101684en_us. It is strongly recommended that the installation user utilizes the latest available matrix. Hewlett Packard Enterprise has tested this solution with the latest firmware recipe available as of June 2020, including HPE OneView for Synergy 5.2.
The installation user has the flexibility to customize the HPE components throughout this stack in accordance with the unique IT and workload requirements or to build the solution with individual components rather than using HPE CS750.
Table 1 highlights the individual components and their quantities as deployed within the solution.
