Final Words

Adding iLO 5 as well as significantly higher performance CPU options means that power consumption and cost are up with this generation. We are going to show the impacts of these in our review and compare them to the Opteron-based Gen10 system. That review has so much going into it that it is taking a lot of time but we wanted to show off some of the side-by-side hardware advancements made on the new ProLiant MicroServer Gen10 Plus in the meantime. Overall, HPE did a great job with the new MicroServer.

Stay tuned to STH for more.

Update: you can now read our formal ProLiant MicroServer Gen10 Plus Review.

Краткий обзор HPE ProLiant MicroServer

Серверное оборудование всегда было достаточно дорогим и подобрать подходящий по бюджету вариант в сегменте SOHO/SMB было очень непросто. Однако, в компании HP сумели предложить потребителям надежное, компактное и недорогое решение начального уровня, выпустив в начале 2011 года первую версию HP ProLiant MicroServer.

MicroServer быстро завоевал популярность в виду своих скромных габаритов и серьёзного подхода к выбору компонентов и качеству сборки, не уступающих топовым продуктам компании. Всегда предпочитаю использовать именно брендовые варианты серверов (например DELL или HP) в виду их большей продуманности и качества изготовления, в отличие от тех же Supermicro. Пусть они и стоят дороже, но тут всё глаз радует. Конечно, это всего лишь моё оценочное суждение, и да простят меня любители бренда Supermicro.

Итак первым преимуществом можно записать габариты устройства, представляющего собой практически кубик со сторонами 23.5×23.0x25.4 см (ВxШxГ). Так что новая версия ProLiant MicroServer Gen10 с заявленной повышенной производительностью и в том же форм-факторе, что и бестселлер предыдущего поколения Gen8.

Хотя, на мой взгляд, Gen10, выполненный в новом корпоративном стиле, выглядит не так эффектно, как его предшественник. Мне всегда нравились статусные индикаторы на передней панели, которые теперь вовсе убрали. Однако, это всё вкусовщина.

Вторым неоспоримым преимуществом у ProLiant MicroServer была и остаётся практически бесшумная работа. Не надо придумывать куда бы его приткнуть в маленьком офисе или дома, чтобы только не чувствовать себя как на взлётной площадке аэродрома.

Итак, мы взяли младшую модель с 2-ядерным процессором AMD Opteron X3216 1.6 ГГц и двумя графическими ядрами Radeon R7, который поддерживает память DDR4 до 1600 МГц и размещается под пассивным радиатором охлаждения!

Имеется ещё 2 модификации, отличающимися 4-х ядерными процессорами X3418 и X3421 с 6 и 8 графическими ядрами соотвественно и памятью DDR4 уже на 2400 МГц. В моём случае наличие дополнительных графических ядер погоды не делает, а сравнительных тестов процессоров мне найти не удалось. Встретилось правда упоминание, что Opteron X3421 превосходит по производительности Xeon-1220, но там ни слова не было про Opteron x3216.

Но самое неприятное в новых HPE ProLiant MicroServer Gen10, по сравнению с Gen8, это то, что теперь процессор распаян на материнской плате и заменить его не получится. На этом фоне, даже отсутствие интерфейса iLO4, не вызывает особого огорчения. Зато возможностей для расширения стало больше: появился слот PCIe Gen3 x8 и второй слот x4. Ещё чуть не забыл упомянуть что USB-порты 2.0 и 3.0 не имеют никакого цветового различия, что весьма странно.

За построение RAID 0/1/10 отвечает чип Marvell 88SE9230. Как и прежде имеется 4 отсека для SATA-дисков, но в отличие от Gen8, для дисков не требуется дополнительных крепёжных скоб, достаточно просто вкрутить винты с корпуса и вставить диски.

Сверху корпуса имеется возможность установить оптический привод или твердотельный накопитель. Для этого нужно дозаказать специальное крепление HPE 870212-B21 MicroServer Gen10 Slim SFF Enable Kit. Кстати, на сайте Ситилинка, где заказывали сервак, размещена не правильная фотка от конвертера под 3.5″ диски 870213-B21 NHP SFF CONVERTER KIT, которые различаются одной цифрой в номере. Так что будьте внимательны при заказе.

Reboot Requirement:Reboot may be required after installation for updates to take effect and hardware stability to be maintained.

Installation:

There are two methods for using the Service Pack for ProLiant to update your ProLiant servers: Online mode and Offline mode.

Online mode — Runs on a Windows or Linux hosted operating system

Interactive mode — Follow the onscreen steps to update firmware components
To initiate deployment in interactive mode, run the launch_sum.bat (windows) or launch_sum.sh (Linux) script which is found in the root of the .ISO image

Offline mode — Server is booted to the .ISO image

  • Automatic mode — Firmware components will be updated without interaction
    Automatic mode will by default run firmware update without any user interaction after sitting 10 seconds at the menu screen when an SPP .iso image is used to boot the server.
  • Interactive mode — Follow the onscreen steps to update firmware components

Кому подойдёт HPE ProLiant MicroServer Gen10

Какие можно сделать выводы? В качестве терминального сервера на базе Windows Server 2016, MicroServer Gen10 не вывозит работу с 1С v8.3 в принципе. Вернее то как это работает, нормальной работой назвать язык не повернётся.

Тут надо отдать должное и ещё совершенно не оптимизированной конфигурации 1C, на которую в данное время только переходят, но в любом случае загружаются базы катастрофически долго и это с учётом что всё размещено на SSD. Всё упирается именно в производительность процессора AMD Opteron x3216.

Если требуется терминальным режим, то его можно использовать для совместной работы с документами в Word, Excel или CRM системой до 5-7 рабочих мест. Удивительно, но на нём вполне не плохо себя чувствует Autocad для каких-то небольших инженерных проектов, видимо за счёт весьма приличного графического ядра процессора. Гораздо более дорогие сервера не могут этим похвастать.

Ну и идеальным вариантом использования HPE ProLiant MicroServer Gen10 остаётся работа в качестве интернет-шлюза (даже весьма крупной организации). На нём с успехом могут одновременно работать WEB-сервер, почтовый сервер, firewall и маршрутизация пакетов, ОpenVPN сервер или NAS. В общем, всё что крутится под *NIX.
