Chapter 1. Introduction
The ThinkAgile VX7Y12 Series is a 2U solution designed for high-volume network transaction processing.
This solution includes a single enclosure that can contain up to four compute nodes, which are designed to
deliver a dense, scalable platform for distributed enterprise and hyperconverged solutions.
Note:
A VMware vSAN cluster requires a minimum of three or more servers. The best practice is to use three
or more servers of the same machine type and configuration to provide a balanced and high-performance
solution.
In addition, the server is designed to utilize the Lenovo system management tools to create a unified
hardware management solution for vSAN deployments:
•
Lenovo XClarity Administrator
, which provides firmware compliance functionality to ensure that the
VX7Y14 Series servers are running the appropriate level of firmware for Lenovo XClarity Controller, UEFI,
and PCIe devices.
•
Lenovo XClarity Integrator
, which provides VMware vCenter plug-in functionality so that ThinkAgile
VX7Y12 Series servers can be managed directly from vCenter.
The ThinkAgile VX7Y12 Series hardware is based on the ThinkSystem D2 Enclosure and ThinkSystem SD530
Compute Node.
