HP ProLiant Moonshot Specification
As a dedicated hosting company are you using large numbers of traditionally architected servers? Are you hitting the wall for power,
cooling and space?
The HP Moonshot System uses an innovative new architecture that results from one simple design tenet: to align purpose-built modules
with the right workload to provide optimal results for your dedicated hosting environment. Traditional servers rely on dedicated
components, including management, networking, storage, power cords and cooling fans in a single chassis. In contrast, the Moonshot
system share these chassis components and are capable of supporting 45 servers per 4.3U chassis.
This gives you the ability to generate greater revenue from a smaller footprint while driving down your operational costs. The HP
ProLiant Moonshot Servers use low-energy processors and direct attached disk drives to provide an ideal solution for dedicated hosting.

Chassis Management
Module
HP Moonshot 1500 Chassis Management module, complete with support for SL-APM.
The HP Moonshot 1500 Chassis Management module manages the health of the chassis and servers and
includes a command-line interface accessible via SSH to configure the chassis and server settings and
control server power and UID lights, use Virtual Serial Port to servers, and to flash firmware in the chassis.
It also supports IPMI management.
On System Management
HP Moonshot iLO Chassis Management Firmware is the gateway for aggregated chassis management on
HP Moonshot. Moonshot iLO CM firmware reduces cost and power by sharing four iLO modules across the
nodes and other system components. As a single point of access to the chassis, Moonshot iLO CM firmware
allows you to configure, update, and operate HP Moonshot via CLI, IPMI, and remote serial console access.
For more information, see the HP Moonshot iLO Chassis Management Firmware User Guide on the HP
Project Moonshot Information Library (

Common Slot Power
Supply
Each Moonshot Chassis comes with a minimum of two (2) HP Common slot power supplies.
HP's Common Slot (CS) power supplies allow for commonality of power supplies across a wide range of
ProLiant and Integrity servers, as well as HP Storage solutions, and are designed to provide the highest
power supply efficiency without degrading system performance. HP CS power supplies are tested by the
Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and certified through the ECOS 80 Plus power supply program. HP
CS power supply options provide efficiency ratings of up to 94% and are available in only a 1200W
configuration for this platform which is "right-sized" for this specific solution. All HP Common Slot power
sources are UL, CE Mark Compliant, hot-plug and support redundant configurations. HP Power Advisor can
be accessed at:
www.hp.com/go/hppoweradvisor
.
NOTE:
Mixing of power supplies in the same server is not supported. All power supplies must be of the
same output and efficiency rating. If non-matched power supplies are inserted you will get errors and
operation will fail.
NOTE:
Redundant Power: Optional redundant power supplies can be purchased through power supply
option kits (see Power Supplies for part numbers).
