OVERVIEW
The UCS C240 M3 rack server is designed for both performance and expandability over a wide range of
storage-intensive infrastructure workloads from big data to collaboration.
Building on the success of the Cisco UCS C210 M2 rack server, the enterprise-class UCS C240 M3 server
further extends the capabilities of Cisco’s Unified Computing System portfolio in a 2U form factor with the
addition of the Intel® E5-2600 series processor family CPUs that deliver the best combination of
performance, flexibility and efficiency gains. In addition, the UCS C240 M3 server provides 24 DIMM slots, up
to 24 drives and 4 x 1 GbE LOM to provide outstanding levels of internal memory and storage expandability
along with exceptional performance.

CONFIGURING the SERVER
Approved Configurations
(1) 1-CPU configurations:
Select any one CPU listed in Table 3.
(2) 2-CPU Configurations:
Select two identical CPUs from any one of the rows of Table 3 on page 11.
Caveats
You can select either one processor or two identical processors.
For optimal performance, select DIMMs with the highest clock speed for a given processor
(see
Table 3 on page 11). If you select DIMMs whose speeds are lower or higher than that
shown in the tables, suboptimal performance will result.

STEP 3 SELECT MEMORY
The standard memory features are:
DIMMs
Clock speed: 1333 or 1600 MHz
Ranks per DIMM: 1, 2, or 4
Operational voltage: dual voltage capable (1.5 V or 1.35 V)
Registered ECC DDR3 DIMMS (RDIMMS) or load-reduced DIMMS (LRDIMMs)
Memory is organized with four memory channels per CPU, with up to three DIMMs per
channel, as shown in
Figure 4.

CONFIGURING the SERVER
Select DIMMs and Memory Mirroring
Select the memory configuration and whether or not you want the memory mirroring option.
The available memory DIMMs and mirroring option are listed in
Table 4.
Approved Configurations
(1) 1-CPU configuration without memory mirroring:
Select from 1 to 12 DIMMs. Refer to Memory Population Rules, page 52, for more detailed
information.
(2) 1-CPU configuration with memory mirroring:
NOTE: When memory mirroring is enabled, the memory subsystem simultaneously
writes identical data to two channels. If a memory read from one of the channels
returns incorrect data due to an uncorrectable memory error, the system
automatically retrieves the data from the other channel. A transient or soft error in
one channel does not affect the mirrored data, and operation continues unless there
is a simultaneous error in exactly the same location on a DIMM and its mirrored
DIMM. Memory mirroring reduces the amount of memory available to the operating
system by 50% because only one of the two populated channels provides data.

Caveats
The server supports 1, 2, or 3 DIMMs per channel for single- or dual-rank RDIMMs.
The server supports 1, 2, or 3 DIMMs per channel for quad-rank LRDIMMs.
The server supports registered DIMMs (RDIMMs) or load-reduced DIMMS (LRDIMMs), however,
do not mix RDIMMs and LRDIMMs in a server.
When using mirroring, DIMMs must be installed in identical pairs across paired DDR3 buses.
That is, mirrored pairs in channels A and B must be identical and pairs in channels C and D
must be identical. However, the DIMMs used in channels A and B and in C and D can be
different.
UDIMMs and non-ECC DIMMs are not supported.
Memory mirroring reduces the amount of available memory by 50% (quantity of DIMMs must
be even for mirroring).
When single- and dual-rank DIMMs are populated for 2DPC, always populate the dual-rank
DIMM in the blue DIMM slot first (blue slot) and the single-rank DIMM last in the black DIMM
slots (only the 4GB DIMMs are single-rank).
By default, all DIMMs run at 1.35 V, which yields 1333-MHz memory speeds. To run the
memory DIMMS at 1600 MHz, you need to go into the BIOS or set the policy with UCSM
(service profile) to run in Performance Mode. This forces the DIMMs to operate at 1.5 V and
yields 1600-MHz speeds, provided:
The DIMMs are 1600-MHz devices and the DIMM type is RDIMM
The CPUs chosen support 1600-MHz operation
There are less than 3 DIMMs per channel
With 3 DIMMs populated per channel, memory always runs at 1.5 V regardless if the BIOS
setting is low-power mode (1.35 V) or performance mode (1.5 V).
For more information regarding memory, see CPUs and DIMMs, page 50.
NOTE: Memory speed is limited to 1066 MHz for 3 DPC configurations.
NOTE: 32 GB LRDIMMs run at a maximum speed of 1333 MHz for 1DPC and 2DPC even
though their specified maximum speed is 1600 MHz.

STEP 4 SELECT RAID CONFIGURATION
The RAID controller choices are:
Embedded RAID (on motherboard)
Mezzanine RAID controller cards
Plug-in PCIe RAID controller cards
Cisco can provide factory-configured RAID systems depending on the RAID controller chosen and
the number of drives ordered. Factory-configured RAID options are listed with each RAID card
description.
Select RAID Options
Select as follows:
One embedded RAID upgrade option (see Table 5), or
One mezzanine RAID controller (see Table 6), or
One PCIe RAID controller card (see Table 7 on page 19)
NOTE: If you do not select a mezzanine card, a plug-in PCIe RAID card, or one of the
embedded RAID upgrade options, you will have an embedded SATA-only RAID
controller that supports up to four SATA-only drives (RAID 0, 1, 10)
NOTE: The number of RAID groups (logical drives/virtual drives) supported per
controller is as follows:
Embedded RAID = 8 drives
Cisco UCSC RAID SAS 2008M-8i Mezzanine Card = 16 drives
LSI MegaRAID SAS 9266-8i/9266CV-8i RAID controller cards = 64 drives
