For a single host server connected to a C410x: a. Power up the C410x. b. Wait for the Green power LEDs on the individual PCI cages to light. c. Power up the host server. 2. For multiple host servers connected to a C410x: a. Power up the PCI cage associated with the iPass port connected to the C410x. NOTE: The PCI cage power can be applied by pressing the cage power button or using IPMITool commands identified in the “Using the C410x Base Board Management Controller” document. b. Wait for the Green power LEDs on the cage to light. c. Power up the host server. d. Repeat for each host server connected to the C410x. Supported GPGPU Configurations The C410x supports installing different GPGPU and other devices in the chassis. Mixing different GPGPUs connected to the same host server is not supported. All GPGPUs connected to a host server must be the same type. Mixing other devices with GPGPUs connected to the same host server is supported. GPGPU Support Limitation There are some host servers that have multiple PCIex16 expansion slots. This allows multiple Host Interface Cards (HIC) to be installed in a single host server. The flexibility of the C410x system allows 16 GPGPUs to be connected to a single host server with multiple PCIex16 expansion slots. Host servers that are based on x86 architecture have a 16 bit (total 64 K) IO address space hardware limit. The 16 bit IO address space hardware limit limits the number of PCI devices that can be connected to the host server. The host server does not boot or other POST errors occur if the IO address space limit is exceeded. The number of onboard host server PCI devices utilize a fixed amount of IO address space. The remaining IO address space is used to determine the number of GPGPU that can be installed in a C410x that is connected to the single host server. Each GPGPU requires 4K of IO address space. The number of onboard PCI devices plus the number of GPGPUs determine the amount of IO address space used. Therefore, the 16 bit IO address space limitation does not allow a single host server to support 16 GPGPUs installed in a C410x. Introduction | 6 InfiniBand (IB) Support Limitation Host servers will not support more than one IB card installed in a C410x. If more than one IB card is installed in a C410x and connected to a single host server issues may be observed.
