  • The server offers hot-swap (HS) SSDs and HDDs, and supports RAID redundancy for data protection and greater system uptime.
  • Much like HS drives, simple-swap drives are mounted on an easy-to-remove tray and work with the same RAID options. Simple-swap require a system power-down before adding or replacing, however simple-swap drives are less expensive than hot-swap drives.
  • The Dual M.2 Boot Adapter supports RAID-1 which enables two installed M.2 drives to be configured as a redundant pair.
  • The server supports hot-swap power supplies; with two installed, they form a redundant pair to provide availability for business-critical applications. The server also offers an optional 4th fan which offers redundancy in most server configurations.
  • Toolless cover removal provides easy access to upgrades and serviceable parts, such as CPU, memory, and adapter cards.
  • Proactive Platform Alerts (including PFA and SMART alerts) for: processors, voltage regulators, memory, internal storage (SAS/SATA HDDs and SSDs), fans, power supplies, RAID controllers, and server ambient and sub-component temperatures. Alerts can be surfaced through the XClarity Controller management processor to managers such as Lenovo XClarity Administrator, VMware vCenter, and Microsoft System Center. These proactive alerts let you take appropriate actions in advance of possible failure, thereby increasing server uptime and application availability.
  • SSDs, with no moving parts, offer significantly better reliability than mechanical HDDs, for greater uptime.
  • The built-in XClarity Controller continuously monitors system parameters, triggers alerts, and performs recovery actions in case of failures to minimize downtime.

Processors

The ST550 supports the Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum level processors in the family of second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors. The server supports the processor options that are listed in the following table. The server supports up to two processors.

Topics in this section:

Processor support: Both 1st Gen and 2nd Gen Intel Xeon SP processors are supported. For supported 1st Gen processors, see the Continued support for 1st Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors section.

Processor options

The following table lists the supported processors. All processors listed have the following characteristics:

  • Second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors (formerly codenamed "Cascade Lake")
  • 14 nm process technology
  • Six DDR4 memory channels
  • 48 PCIe 3.0 I/O lanes
  • 1 MB L2 cache
  • 1.375 MB or more L3 cache per core
  • Intel Hyper-Threading Technology (except Bronze processors)
  • Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 (except Bronze processors)
  • Intel Advanced Vector Extensions 512 (AVX-512)
  • Two Intel Ultra Path Interconnect (UPI) links at up to 10.4 GT/s

Some processors include a suffix letter in the processor model number:

  • L: Large memory tier (supports total memory up to 4.5TB)
  • M: Medium memory tier (supports total memory up to 2TB)
  • N: NFV optimized
  • S: Search optimized
  • T: High Tcase
  • U: Single socket
  • V: VM Density optimized
  • Y: Speed Select

Tip: B is not an official suffix, but instead used by Intel to distinguish between the Xeon Gold 5218 and the Xeon Gold 5218B processors. These two processor models have the same core counts, frequencies, and features, however they are based on different die configurations. You should not install 5218 and 5218B processors in the same server.

Tip: The option part numbers listed in the table below includes the processor heatsink and an additional system fan.

Memory capacity of processors

Second-generation Xeon Scalable processors are limited to the amount of memory they can address, as follows:

  • Processors with an L suffix (eg 8280L): Up to 4.5 TB per processor
  • Processors with an M suffix (eg 8280M): Up to 2 TB per processor
  • All other processors: Up to 1 TB per processor

The calculation is based on each processor individually, not the total memory installed in the server. For example, a configuration using 12x 64GB DIMMs per server is 6x 64 GB per processor, which is 384 GB per processor. This means that neither an M nor an L processor is required

Tip: There are no memory configurations of the ST550 that require an L-suffix or an M-suffix processor.

UEFI operating modes

The ST550 offers preset operating modes that affect energy consumption and performance. These modes are a collection of predefined low-level UEFI settings that simplify the task of tuning the server to suit your business and workload requirements.

The following table lists the feature codes that allow you to specify the mode you wish to preset in the factory for CTO orders.

Table 15. UEFI operating mode presets in DCSC
Feature code Description
BFYB Operating mode selection for: "Maximum Performance Mode"
BFYC Operating mode selection for: "Minimal Power Mode"
BFYD Operating mode selection for: "Efficiency Favoring Power Savings Mode"
BFYE Operating mode selection for: "Efficiency - Favoring Performance Mode"

The preset modes for the ST550 are as follows:

  • Maximum Performance Mode (feature BFYB): Achieves maximum performance but with higher power consumption and lower energy efficiency.
  • Minimal Power Mode (feature BFYC): Minimize the absolute power consumption of the system.
  • Efficiency Favoring Power Savings Mode (feature BFYD): Maximize the performance/watt efficiency with a bias towards power savings. This is the favored mode for SPECpower benchmark testing, for example.
  • Efficiency Favoring Performance Mode (feature BFYE): Maximize the performance/watt efficiency with a bias towards performance. This is the favored mode for Energy Star certification, for example.

For details about these preset modes, and all other performance and power efficiency UEFI settings offered in the ST550, see the paper "Tuning UEFI Settings for Performance and Energy Efficiency on Intel Xeon Scalable Processor-Based ThinkSystem Servers", available from https://lenovopress.lenovo.com/lp1477.

Memory options

The ST550 server supports Lenovo TruDDR4 memory. TruDDR4 memory uses the highest-quality components sourced from Tier 1 DRAM suppliers and only memory that meets strict requirements is selected. It is compatibility-tested and tuned to maximize performance and reliability.

TruDDR4 memory has a unique signature programmed into the DIMM, which enables ThinkSystem servers to verify whether the memory installed is qualified and supported. From a service and support standpoint, TruDDR4 memory automatically assumes the system's warranty, and service and support provided worldwide.

The ST550 supports up to 6 DIMMs per processor, for a total of 12 DIMMs when two processors are installed. Each processor has six memory channels, and supports one DIMM per channel.

With second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, the ST550 supports 2666 MHz or 2933 MHz memory. It is supported to have a mix of 2933 MHz and 2666 MHz memory, however all memory will operate at the lower speed. In addition, if the processor selected has a lower memory bus speed (eg 2400 MHz or 2133 MHz - see the Processor options section), then all DIMMs will operate at that lower speed.

The following table lists the memory options that are available for the ST550 server. The table also indicates which processor generation is supported for each memory option.

Persistent Memory: Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory (DCPMM) is not supported in the ST550.

2666 MHz LRDIMMs
7X77A01305 AUNE ThinkSystem 64GB TruDDR4 2666 MHz (4Rx4 1.2V) LRDIMM 12 (6 per processor) Yes No

The following rules apply when selecting the memory configuration:

  • The server supports RDIMMs and LRDIMMs.
  • Mixing RDIMMs and LRDIMMs is not supported. Use either RDIMMs or LDRIMMs but not both.
  • Mixing 2666 MHz and 2933 MHz DIMMs is supported. All memory will operate at the lower speed.
  • Mixing x4 and x8 DIMMs is supported.
  • For best performance, populate memory DIMMs in quantities of 6 per processor, so that all memory channels are used.

The following memory protection technologies are supported:

  • ECC
  • SDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs; look for "x4" in the DIMM description)
  • ADDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs; Gold and Platinum processors only)
  • Memory channel mirroring
  • Memory rank sparing

If memory channel mirroring is used, then DIMMs must be installed in pairs (minimum of one pair per processor), and both DIMMs in a pair must be identical in type and size. 50% of the installed capacity is available to the operating system.

If memory rank sparing is used, then a minimum of one quad-rank DIMM or two single-rank or dual-rank DIMMs must be installed per populated channel (the DIMMs do not need to be identical). In rank sparing mode, one rank of a DIMM in each populated channel is reserved as spare memory. The largest rank in the channel will be automatically selected as the spare rank. The amount of memory available to the operating system depends on the number, capacity and rank counts of the DIMMs installed.

Internal storage

The ST550 supports 2.5-inch hot-swap, 3.5-inch hot-swap, and 3.5-inch simple-swap drives in a variety of drive bay configurations.

In this section:

Drive bays and backplanes

The server supports up to 20 drive bays: It can support up to 16x 2.5-inch drives or 8x 3.5-inch drives, plus an additional 4x 2.5-inch drive bays installed in the space occupied by the two 5.25-inch media bays. Hot-swap (HS) drive configurations support SAS & SATA drives, and with an AnyBay backplane, can support up to four NVMe drives. Simple-swap (SS) drive configurations support SATA drives only. The server also supports one or two M.2 drives, installed in an M.2 adapter. The dual-M.2 adapter provides RAID 0 and 1 support.

The different drive bay configurations supported are shown in the following figure.

Field upgrades

The following table shows the backplane kits you can use after the initial purchase to upgrade the server to add additional drive bays.

Use with X40 adapters: These backplane kits in the table below include SAS/SATA cables for use with the onboard SATA controller or with RAID 930, 730, 530 adapters and 430 HBAs (collectively called X30 adapters). If you are adding or upgrading to RAID 940 adapters or 440 HBAs (collectively called X40 adapters), you will need to also order an X40 cable kit. See the Cable kits for 440 HBAs and RAID 940 adapters section for details.

* The media bay conversion kit also requires an additional system fan if the server has only one processor. See the Fans and cooling section for details.

Each kit contains the backplane and the necessary cables for use with an X30 adapter. The AnyBay kit also including PCIe cables for NVMe drive connectivity. The 2.5" SATA/SAS 4-Bay Backplane Kit also includes the necessary 4x 2.5-inch drive-bay cage.

In addition to the backplane kits, you will need a RAID adapter or HBA, and if you are adding an AnyBay backplane, you'll also need an NVMe Switch adapter. The adapters are described in the Controllers for internal storage section.

Cable kits for 440 HBAs and RAID 940 adapters

The backplane kits listed in the preceding table include cables for use with the onboard SATA controller or with RAID 930, 730, 530 adapters and 430 HBAs (collectively called X30 adapters). If you wish to use the backplane kits with RAID 940 adapters or 440 HBAs (collectively called X40 adapters), then you will also need to order an additional X40 cable kit to use instead of the cables in the backplane kit, as listed in the following table.

Tip: When adding an X40 adapter, you will order both the backplane kit and the relevant X40 cable kit, however the SAS/SATA data cable(s) in the backplane kit will not be used.

M.2 drives

The server supports one or two M.2 form-factor SATA drives for use as an operating system boot solution. With two M.2 drives configured, the drives are configured by default as a RAID-1 mirrored pair for redundancy.

The M.2 drives install into an M.2 adapter which in turn is installed in a dedicated slot on the system board. See the internal view of the server in the Components and connectors section for the location of the M.2 slot.

There are two M.2 adapters supported, as listed in the following table.

SED encryption key management with SKLM

The server supports self-encrypting drives (SEDs) as listed in the Internal drive options section. To effectively manage a large deployment of these drives in Lenovo servers, IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager (SKLM) offers a centralized key management solution. A Lenovo Feature on Demand (FoD) upgrade is used to enable this SKLM support in the management processor of the server.

The following table lists the part numbers and feature codes for the upgrades.

Controllers for internal storage

The ST550 with hot-swap drives supports internal SAS and SATA drives with the addition of a RAID adapter or HBA. For NVMe support, the server supports the use of an NVMe Switch Adapter installed in a PCIe slot.

For simple-swap drive support, the ST550 uses two onboard 6Gb SATA ports to connect the four or eight simple-swap drives. These ports enable Intel RSTe for RAID functionality.

Virtualization support: The SATA ports can be used with virtualization hypervisors, including VMware ESXi, Linux KVM, Xen, and Microsoft Hyper-V, however support is limited to AHCI (non-RAID) mode. RSTe mode is not supported with virtualization hypervisors.

The following table lists the adapters used for the internal disk storage of the ST550 server.

7C57A02895 AVRK ThinkSystem NVIDIA Quadro P6000 24GB PCIe Active GPU 3, 5* 2

† The use of the P4000 or RTX 4000 requires that ST550 chassis AVS5 (3.5-inch bays) or AVS6 (2.5-inch bays) be selected. See the RTX 4000 topic below.
* The P6000 is a double-width adapter: When installed in slot 3, slot 4 is no longer available. When installed in slot 5, slot 6 is no longer available.

The following other rules apply:

  • If two GPUs are installed, they must be identical
  • The first GPU is installed in slot 3; the second GPU is installed in slot 5 and requires the second processor to be installed.
  • The number of GPUs that can be installed depends on the type of power supply that is installed and the drive bay configuration selected. For more information, see the Power Supplies section.
  • Cooling requirements and limitations in fan redundancy exist for some configurations as described in the Fans and cooling section
  • The use of a GPU requires that Fan 4 (rear fan) be installed.
  • The P4000 GPU can only be installed as a field-upgrade in ST550 servers with chassis B32J (3.5-inch) or B32J (2.5-inch). Older ST550 chassis do not support the P4000 GPU. See the ST550 Setup Guide for information on how to determine which chassis you have.

Tip: NVIDIA Pxxxx GPUs do not have the 1TB system memory limit that previous NVIDIA adapters had.

Chassis selection for NVIDIA Quadro P4000 and RTX 4000

The NVIDIA Quadro P4000 and RTX 4000 use the NVIDIA Form Factor 3.0. in the ST550, to use either of these GPUs, specific chassis feature codes must be selected when building a configure-to-order configuration.

Table 47. Chassis support for GPUs
Feature code Description GPU support
B32K ThinkSystem ST550 16x2.5" CHAS NV3.0 Supports all GPUs
B32J ThinkSystem ST550 8x3.5" CHAS NV3.0 Supports all GPUs
AVS6 ThinkSystem ST550 16x2.5" Chassis Does not support the NVIDIA Quadro P4000 or RTX 4000
AVS5 ThinkSystem ST550 8x3.5" Chassis Does not support the NVIDIA Quadro P4000 or RTX 4000

Configuration notes:

  • There are no other support differences between the two 16x2.5" chasiss (B32K and AVS6) and the two 8x3.5" chassis (B32J and AVS5) other than the mechanical changes needed to support NVIDIA Form Factor 3.0 GPUs like the Quadro P4000 and RTX 4000.
  • There is no field upgrade available to add support for the P4000 in the AVS6 and AVS5 chassis features. If you require P4000 or RTX 4000 support now or in the future, ensure that either the B32K or B32J chassis is selected.

Fans and cooling

The server can operate in environments up to ASHRAE A4 (45°C and 90% humidity). Details and restrictions are described in the Physical and electrical specifications section.

The server supports up to four simple-swap fans, three in the front of the server, just behind the drive bays and one installed at the rear of the server. See the Inside view in the Components and connectors section for locations.

Use of these fans is as follows:

  • Single processor systems require 2 fans, installed in the area behind drive bays
  • The third fan installed behind the drive bays is required in the following situations:
    • The server has two processors. If the second processor is a field upgrade, then the fan is included with the second processor and does not need to be ordered separately.
    • The server has four 2.5-inch hot-swap drives bays installed in place of the two 5.25-inch media bays converted. If the media bay conversion is a field upgrade (part number 7XH7A05908) and the server only has one processor installed, then order the fan using part number 7XH7A06781.
  • Fan 4 (the fan at the rear of the server) can be installed as an N+1 redundant fan if desired. The part number is 7XH7A05900.
  • If a GPU is installed, Fan 4 is required and is non-redundant in most configurations. The following table indicates the cooling restrictions that apply when supported GPUs are installed:
    • Whether or not Fan 4 is redundant
    • Limits to ambient temperatures
