Product details
Flexible, scalable, powerful
Powered by up to two 22-core Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 v4 processors, each FC630 has 24 DIMMs of memory, two 2.5-inch or eight 1.8-inch front-access drives, a 10GB SNA and access to two PCI Express® (PCIe) expansion slots in the shared chassis.
Fit the infrastructure to the job
With the capability to handle demanding business applications and the databases that support them, the future-ready FC630 is the perfect building block for the core of a corporate data center. Offering exceptional performance and a rich set of storage options, including the FD332 storage block with up to 16 direct attached drives, the FX architecture enables you to build an infrastructure that is tailor-made to suit your unique IT requirements.
The efficiencies of shared infrastructure
FC630 servers are housed in the FX2 enclosure — a 2U rack-based converged platform that delivers the density of a blade architecture with the simplicity and cost benefits of rack-based systems — all in a compact modular design. The FX2 delivers efficiency through shared power, cooling, networking, and management, as well as PCIe expansion slots and I/O module options that enable DAS, SAN or NAS storage.
Innovative management with intelligent automation
The Dell OpenManage systems management portfolio simplifies and automates server lifecycle management — making IT operations more efficient and Dell servers the most productive, reliable and cost effective. Dell’s agent-free integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle Controller makes server deployment, configuration and up-dates automated and efficient. Using Chassis Man-agement Controller (CMC), an embedded component that is part of every FX2 chassis, you’ll have the choice of managing FC630 serer nodes individually or collectively via a browser-based interface. OpenManage Essentials provides enterprise-level monitoring and control of Dell and third-party data center hardware, and works with OpenManage Mobile to provide similar information on smart phones. OpenManage Essentials now also delivers server configuration management capabilities that automate bare-metal server and OS deployments, replication of configurations, and ensures ongoing compliance with set system configurations.
