About Your System 7

About Your System

System Overview

Your system can include up to 16 half-height blades (server modules), eight

full-height blades, or a mixture of the two blade types (see Figure 1-1,

Figure 1-2, and Figure 1-3). To function as a system, a blade is inserted into a

Dell PowerEdge M1000e enclosure (chassis) that supports power supplies, fan

modules, a Chassis Management Controller (CMC) module, and at least one

I/O module for external network connectivity. The power supplies, fans,

CMC, optional iKVM module, and I/O modules are shared resources of the

blades in the enclosure.

NOTE: To ensure proper operation and cooling, all bays in the enclosure must be

populated at all times with either a module or with a blank.
