UEFI operating modes

The SR670 V2 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 7. 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 SR670 V2 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 SR670 V2, 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 SR670 V2 uses Lenovo TruDDR4 memory and supports 16 DIMMs per processor or 32 DIMMs with two processors installed. Each processor has eight memory channels with two DIMMs per channel. With 256 GB 3DS RDIMMs installed, the SR670 V2 supports a total of 8 TB of system memory.

The SR670 V2 also supports Intel Optane Persistent Memory 200 Series, as described in the Persistent Memory section.

Memory operates at up to 3200 MHz at two DIMMs per channel, depending on the memory DIMMs and processor model selected. If the processor selected has a lower memory bus speed, then all DIMMs will operate at that lower speed.

The following table lists the memory options that are available for the server.

Lenovo TruDDR4 memory uses the highest quality components that are sourced from Tier 1 DRAM suppliers and only memory that meets the strict requirements of Lenovo is selected. It is compatibility tested and tuned to maximize performance and reliability. From a service and support standpoint, Lenovo TruDDR4 memory automatically assumes the system warranty, and Lenovo provides service and support worldwide.

4X77A08636 BA62 ThinkSystem 128GB TruDDR4 3200 MHz (2S2Rx4 1.2V) 3DS RDIMM 32 (16 per processor)

The following rules apply when selecting the memory configuration:

  • The following DIMM quantities are supported per processor: 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 16. Other quantities per processor are not supported.
  • The server supports RDIMMs and 3DS RDIMMs; UDIMMs and LRDIMMs are not supported
  • Mixing RDIMMs and 3DS RDIMMs is not supported
  • Mixing x4 and x8 DIMMs is supported

For best performance, consider the following:

  • Populate memory DIMMs in quantities of 8 or 16 per processor, so that all memory channels are used.
  • Populate memory channels so they all have the same total memory capacity.
  • Ensure all memory controllers on a processor socket have the same DIMM configuration.
  • All processor sockets on the same physical server should have the same DIMM configuration.

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)
  • Memory mirroring

Note: Memory sparing is not supported

If memory channel mirroring is used, then DIMMs must be installed in pairs or sets of three (minimum of one pair or set of three per processor), and all DIMMs in the pair or set of three must be identical in type and size. 50% of the installed capacity is available to the operating system. Memory rank sparing is not supported.

Persistent memory

The SR670 V2 server supports Intel Optane Persistent Memory 200 Series, a new class of memory and storage technology explicitly architected for data center usage. Persistent memory is an innovative technology that delivers a unique combination of affordable large memory capacity and persistence (non-volatility). It offers significantly lower latency than fetching data from SSDs, even NVMe SSDs, and offers higher capacities than system memory.

Persistent memory technology can help boost the performance of data-intensive applications such as in-memory analytics, databases, content delivery networks, and high performance computing (HPC), as well as deliver consistent service levels at scale with higher virtual machine and container density. When data is stored closer to the processor on nonvolatile media, applications can see significant overall improvement in performance.

The following table lists the ordering information for the supported persistent memory modules.

The following are the requirements when installing persistent memory (PMem) modules when installed in a two-socket server with third-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors ("Ice Lake" processors):

  • App Direct Mode and Memory Mode are supported. Mixed Mode is not supported.
  • All PMem modules operate at 3200 MHz when the installed processor runs the memory bus at 3200 MHz.
  • All installed PMem modules must be the same size. Mixing PMem modules of different capacities is not supported.
  • Maximum 8 PMem modules per processor (install 1 in each memory channel).
  • For each memory channel with both a PMem module and a memory DIMM installed, the PMem module is installed in channel slot 1 (DIMM1, closer to the processor) and the DIMM is installed in channel slot 0 (DIMM0).
  • To maximize performance, balance all memory channels
  • Both interleaved and non-interleaved modes are supported.
  • Memory mirroring is not supported with PMem modules installed

For details, including App Direct Mode and Memory Mode configuration requirements, see the Intel Optane Persistent Memory 200 Series product guide, https://lenovopress.com/LP1380

Internal storage

For specifications about the RAID adapters and HBAs supported by the SR670 V2, see the ThinkSystem RAID Adapter and HBA Comparison, available from:
https://lenovopress.com/lp1288-lenovo-thinksystem-raid-adapter-and-hba-reference#sr670-v2-support=SR670%2520V2

Configuration notes:

  • Supercap support: The table lists whether the adapter includes a power module (supercap) to power the flash memory. The server supports only 1 supercap as described in the RAID flash power module (supercap) support section. The number of supercaps supported also determines the maximum number of RAID adapters with flash that can be installed in the server, both for internal drive connectivity and external drive connectivity.
  • Field upgrades: If you are adding a RAID adapter with supercap to the server as a field upgrade, you may need a supercap holder as described in the RAID flash power module (supercap) support section.

  • E810 Ethernet and X350 RAID/HBAs: The use of both an Intel E810 network adapter and an X350 HBA/RAID adapter (9350, 5350 and 4350) is supported, however E810 firmware CVL4.3 or later is required. For details, see Support Tip HT513226.

The RAID 940-8i and RAID 940-16i adapters also support NVMe through a feature named Tri-Mode support (or Trimode support). This feature enables the use of NVMe U.3 drives at the same time as SAS and SATA drives. Tri-Mode requires an AnyBay backplane. Cabling of the controller to the backplanes is the same as with SAS/SATA drives, and the NVMe drives are connected via a PCIe x1 link to the controller.

NVMe drives connected using Tri-Mode support provide better performance than SAS or SATA drives: A SATA SSD has a data rate of 6Gbps, a SAS SSD has a data rate of 12Gbps, whereas an NVMe U.3 Gen 4 SSD with a PCIe x1 link will have a data rate of 16Gbps. NVMe drives typically also have lower latency and higher IOPS compared to SAS and SATA drives. Tri-Mode is supported with U.3 NVMe drives and requires an AnyBay backplane.

Tri-Mode requires U.3 drives: Only NVMe drives with a U.3 interface are supported. U.2 drives are not supported. See the Internal drive options section for the U.3 drives supported by the server.

The onboard SATA controller has the following features:

  • Controller integrated into the Intel PCH
  • 6 Gbps SATA host interface
  • Supports RAID-0, 1, 5, 10 (Intel VROC SATA RAID, previously known as RSTe)
  • Supports JBOD
  • Supports HDDs and SSDs; can be mixed

The onboard NVMe support has the following features:

  • Controller integrated into the Intel processor
  • Each drive has PCIe 4.0 x4 host interface
  • Supports JBOD - Intel and non-Intel NVMe SSDs - no license required
  • Supports RAID-0, 1, 5, 10 (Intel VROC NVMe RAID) - Intel NVMe SSDs only unless VROC Premium license is installed

Intel VROC onboard RAID

Intel VROC (Virtual RAID on CPU) is a feature of the Intel processor that enables Integrated RAID support.

There are two separate functions of VROC in the SR670 V2:

  • Intel VROC SATA RAID, formerly known as Intel RSTe
  • Intel VROC NVMe RAID

VROC SATA RAID (RSTe) is available and supported with all SATA drives. It offers a 6 Gb/s connection to each drive and on the SR670 V2 implements RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10. RAID 1 is limited to 2 drives per array, and RAID 10 is limited to 4 drives per array. Hot-spare functionality is also supported.

VROC NVMe RAID offers RAID support for any NVMe drives directly connected to the ports on the server's system board or via adapters such as NVMe retimers or NVMe switch adapters. On the SR670 V2, RAID levels implemented are based on the VROC feature selected as indicated in the following table. RAID 1 is limited to 2 drives per array, and RAID 10 is limited to 4 drives per array. Hot-spare functionality is also supported.

Performance tip: For best performance with VROC NVMe RAID, the drives in an array should all be connected to the same processor. Spanning processors is possible however performance will be unpredictable and should be evaluated based on your workload.

The SR670 V2 supports the VROC NVMe RAID offerings listed in the following table. The VROC Intel SSD Only offering only supports RAID on Intel branded NVMe SSDs; non-Intel branded NVMe SSDs cannot be configured in a RAID array.

Tip: These feature codes and part numbers are only for VROC RAID using NVMe drives, not SATA drives

Configuration notes:

  • If a feature code is ordered in a CTO build, the VROC functionality is enabled in the factory. For field upgrades, order a part number and it will be fulfilled as a Feature on Demand (FoD) license which can then be activated via the XCC management processor user interface.

Virtualization support: Virtualization support for Intel VROC is as follows:

  • VROC SATA RAID (RSTe): VROC SATA RAID is supported with Windows, RHEL and SLES, however it is not supported by virtualization hypervisors such as ESXi, KVM, Xen, and Hyper-V. Virtualization is only supported on the onboard SATA ports in AHCI (non-RAID) mode.
  • VROC (VMD) NVMe RAID: VROC (VMD) NVMe RAID is supported by ESXi, KVM, Xen, and Hyper-V. ESXi support is limited to RAID 1 only; other RAID levels are not supported. Windows and Linux OSes support VROC RAID NVMe, both for host boot functions and for guest OS function, and RAID-0, 1, 5, and 10 are supported. On ESXi, VROC is supported with both boot and data drives.

 

For details about these adapters, see the relevant product guide:

Internal drive options

The following tables list the drive options for internal storage of the server.

M.2 drive support: The use of M.2 drives requires an additional adapter as described in the M.2 drives subsection.

SED support: The tables include a column to indicate which drives support SED encryption. The encryption functionality can be disabled if needed. Note: Not all SED-enabled drives have "SED" in the description.

* The DC4800 drives are for China customers only. Also, the NVMe connection to the drives needs to be configured to operate at PCIe Gen3 speed. For CTO orders, PCIe Gen3 will be set in the factory configuration; for field upgrades, the PCIe link speed will need to be set manually in UEFI. See Support Tip TT1709 for details. The DC4800 drives are not supported with ThinkSystem SR670 V2 x16 + x16 cabled PCIe Gen4 Rear IO Riser (BFGL).

As listed in the table, there are five GPU risers, one x8 riser and four x16 risers. The x8 riser offers eight x8 slots for single-wide GPUs with direct uplinks to the processors. All x16 offer four x16 slots for double-wide GPUs, however the difference is the uplink (host) connection.

  1. The direct x16 riser (feature BFGH) has four x16 connections (64 lanes total, implemented using eight x8 cables) for connecting to the system processors. This provides a direct 1:1 connection to all four GPUs.
  2. The switched riser (feature BFTW) has two x16 connections (32 lanes, implemented using four x8 cables) for connecting to the processors. The two x16 links connect to a switch on the riser that, in turn, connects to the four x16 slots for the GPUs (64 lanes). This provides a 1:2 connection to the four GPUs.
  3. The switched riser with GPUDirect RDMA (feature BFGK) is similar to feature BFTW, however it allows the implementation of NVIDIA GPUDirect RDMA. Designed specifically for the needs of GPU acceleration, GPUDirect RDMA provides direct communication between NVIDIA GPUs in remote systems. This eliminates the system CPUs and the required buffer copies of data via the system memory, resulting in 10X better performance. The riser provides a x16 connection to a single CPU (a 1:4 connection to the four GPUs) and a x16 connection directly to I/O slots.
  4. The switched riser with GPUDirect Storage (feature BP1V) is similar to GPUDirect RDMA riser (feature BFGK), however it allows the implementation of NVIDIA GPUDirect Storage and the downlinks are to NVMe drives instead of I/O slots.
  5. The direct x8 riser (feature BFGJ) has eight x8 connections (64 lanes total, implemented using eight x8 cables) for connecting to the system processors. This provides a direct 1:1 connection to all eight GPUs.

Block diagrams of these GPU risers is shown in the following figure.

Block diagrams of the GPU risers
Figure 16. Block diagrams of the GPU risers

Use of the GPU risers is as follows:

  • The 8-DW GPU model uses 2 switched risers. This provides connections for eight GPUs using a 1:2 or 1:4 subscription.
  • The 4-DW GPU model can use either
    • A direct x16 riser (1:1) or a switched x16 riser (1:2 or 1:4) to provide connections for four GPUs. Each GPU gets a x16 connection. The choice of GPU riser is based on what other I/O risers are used in the configuration.
    • A direct x8 riser to provide connections for up to eight single-wide GPUs. Each GPU gets a x8 connection.
  • The SXM model does not need a riser but instead connects through a PCIe 4.0 retimer adapter to offer 1:1 direct connections to the processors.

The slots at the rear of the server are 2-slot risers. The mechanical cage has a third slot at the top which does not support an adapter, but is instead of use either for a serial port or for a RAID adapter supercap. Adapter slots are as follows:

  • Riser BFGL has two PCIe 4.0 x16 slots
  • Riser BHMT has one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot (bottom slot) and one PCIe 4.0 x8 slot (top slot)

The following figure shows the rear riser.

Tip: The two feature codes in the above table (BFGL and BHMT) are the same physical riser; the only difference is whether 1 or 2 of the cabled host interfaces are connected.

SR670 V2 rear riser
Figure 17. Rear riser

Serial port

The SR670 V2 optionally supports an RS-232 serial port by adding a COM port bracket to either rear riser cage in the top slot position. This position is not used by any adapter so there is no loss of PCIe slot availability, however the location is shared with the RAID supercap.

Note: The serial port is only supported in configurations with rear slots. The table in the Configurations section indicates which configurations have rear slots.

Configuration rules:

  • Some NVIDIA A Series GPUs are available as two feature codes, one with a CEC chip and one without a CEC chip (ones without the CEC chip have "w/o CEC" in the name). The CEC is a secondary Hardware Root of Trust (RoT) module that provides an additional layer of security, which can be used by customers who have high regulatory requirements or high security standards. NVIDIA uses a multi-layered security model and hence the protection offered by the primary Root of Trust embedded in the GPU is expected to be sufficient for most customers. The CEC defeatured products still offer Secure Boot, Secure Firmware Update, Firmware Rollback Protection, and In-Band Firmware Update Disable. Specifically, without the CEC chip, the GPU does not support Key Revocation or Firmware Attestation. CEC and non-CEC GPUs of the same type of GPU can be mixed in field upgrades.
  • Single-wide GPUs have a x8 connection: When installed in the 4-DW GPU model configuration, the single-wide GPUs are installed in slots with only 8 lanes (x8) connected instead of the normal 16 lanes (x16).
  • vGPU support: The vGPU feature of NVIDIA GPUs is supported in an 8-DW GPU configuration only with firmware released 2/28/2022 or later. For more information, see https://datacentersupport.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/ht512373.
  • The double-wide GPUs also support the installation of a GPU bridge between adjacent pairs of GPUs.
    • NVIDIA A100 GPUs use three NVLink bridges per pair
    • NVIDIIA A30 and A40 GPUs support one NVLink bridge per pair.

    Ordering information in the following table.

  • The H100 on the SR670 V2 does not currently support the NVLink bridge

Cooling

The SR670 V2 server has up to five 80 mm dual-rotor simple-swap variable-speed fans. Fans are N+1 rotor redundant, tolerating a single-rotor failure. All fans are standard. The server also has one or two additional fans integrated in each of the four power supplies.

Power supplies

The SR670 V2 has two or four redundant hot-swap power supplies depending on the configuration, as listed in the following table.

Table 41. Power supply requirements
Configuration Required power supply capacity and quantity
1800W 2400W
SXM model Not supported 4
4-DW GPU model 4 2 or 4

Power supply options do not include a line cord. For server configurations, the inclusion of a power cord is model dependent. Configure-to-order models can be configured without power cords if desired.

Power supply LEDs

The supported hot-swap power supplies have the following LEDs:

  • Power input LED: 
    • Green: The power supply is connected to the AC power source
    • Off: The power supply is disconnected from the AC power source or a power problem has occurred
  • Power output LED:
    • Green: The server is on and the power supply is working normally
    • Blinking green: The power supply is in Zero-output/Standby mode (see below)
    • Off: The server is powered off, or the power supply is not working properly
  • Power supply error LED:
    • Off: The power supply is working normally
    • Yellow: The power supply has failed

Zero-output mode: When Zero-output mode (also known as Standby mode or Cold Redundancy mode) is configured in XCC and the server power load is sufficiently low, one of the installed power supplies enters into the Standby state while the other one delivers entire load. When the power load increases, the standby power supply will switch to Active state to provide sufficient power to the server. Zero-output mode can be enabled or disabled in the XClarity Controller web interface, Server Configuration > Power Policy. If you select Disable, then both power supplies will be in the Active state.

Platform Firmware Resiliency - Lenovo ThinkShield

Lenovo's ThinkShield Security is a transparent and comprehensive approach to security that extends to all dimensions of our data center products: from development, to supply chain, and through the entire product lifecycle.

The ThinkSystem SR670 V2 includes Platform Firmware Resiliency (PFR) hardware Root of Trust (RoT) which enables the system to be NIST SP800-193 compliant. This offering further enhances key platform subsystem protections against unauthorized firmware updates and corruption, to restore firmware to an integral state, and to closely monitor firmware for possible compromise from cyber-attacks.

PFR operates upon the following server components:

  • UEFI image – the low-level server firmware that connects the operating system to the server hardware
  • XCC image – the management “engine” software that controls and reports on the server status separate from the server operating system
  • FPGA image – the code that runs the server’s lowest level hardware controller on the motherboard

The Lenovo Platform Root of Trust Hardware performs the following three main functions:

  • Detection – Measures the firmware and updates for authenticity
  • Recovery – Recovers a corrupted image to a known-safe image
  • Protection – Monitors the system to ensure the known-good firmware is not maliciously written

These enhanced protection capabilities are implemented using a dedicated, discrete security processor whose implementation has been rigorously validated by leading third-party security firms. Security evaluation results and design details are available for customer review – providing unprecedented transparency and assurance.

The SR670 V2 includes support for Secure Boot, a UEFI firmware security feature developed by the UEFI Consortium that ensures only immutable and signed software are loaded during the boot time. The use of Secure Boot helps prevent malicious code from being loaded and helps prevent attacks, such as the installation of rootkits. Lenovo offers the capability to enable secure boot in the factory, to ensure end-to-end protection. Alternatively, Secure Boot can be left disabled in the factory, allowing the customer to enable it themselves at a later point, if desired.

The following table lists the relevant feature code(s).

Table 53. Secure Boot options
Part number Feature code Description Purpose
CTO only AUK7 TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot Configure the system in the factory with Secure Boot enabled.
CTO only B0MK Enable TPM 2.0 Configure the system without Secure Boot enabled. Customers can enable Secure Boot later if desired.
CTO only C1GD ST45 V3 TPM 2.0 for WW  

Tip: If Secure Boot is not enabled in the factory, it can be enabled later by the customer. However once Secure Boot is enabled, it cannot be disabled.
