User Manual
FAQ
What type of storage drives does this server support?
The HPE ProLiant MicroServer Gen11 supports four 3.5" large form factor (LFF) storage drives through its Serial ATA/600 controller with Intel VROC technology. These bays accommodate standard SATA hard drives or solid-state drives, providing flexibility for capacity-oriented or performance-oriented storage configurations. The bays are not hot-swappable, requiring system power-down for drive replacement or installation.
How much memory can be added to this server?
This server supports up to 128 GB of DDR5 memory across its four DIMM slots. It comes with 16 GB of ECC unbuffered memory installed in one slot, leaving three additional slots available for expansion. Memory upgrades must use DDR5 modules that are compatible with the Intel C262 chipset and Xeon 6315P processor, with ECC functionality recommended for data integrity in server environments.
What remote management capabilities are included?
The server includes HPE Integrated Lights-Out 6 (iLO 6) remote management with a dedicated controller. This provides out-of-band management capabilities including remote power control, virtual media mounting, hardware health monitoring, and console access over the network. iLO 6 supports secure encrypted connections and integrates with HPE's management ecosystem for centralized administration of multiple servers.
Can this server be rack-mounted?
The Ultra Micro Tower form factor is designed primarily for desktop or shelf placement rather than standard rack mounting. Its compact dimensions (6.06" H x 10.28" W x 9.82" D) make it suitable for environments where rack space is unavailable or impractical. For rack deployment, HPE offers dedicated rack-mount server models in the ProLiant portfolio with similar specifications.
What security features protect this server?
Security features include a Trusted Platform Module 2.0 for hardware-based encryption, UEFI Secure Boot to prevent unauthorized firmware modifications, immutable silicon root of trust for firmware validation, and FIPS 140-2 certification for cryptographic modules. Physical security options include a front bezel lock, Kensington lock slot, and power cord clip to prevent tampering or disconnection in shared spaces.
What is included in the warranty coverage?
HPE provides a 1-year limited warranty that includes parts, labor, and on-site support with next business day response. This comprehensive coverage ensures rapid resolution of hardware issues without requiring return shipping or extended downtime. The warranty supports the server's deployment in business-critical environments where reliable operation and quick service resolution are essential.
