Chapter 2. Overview

- Overview

Overview

For expansion of existing Cisco Hyperflex cluster it is very important to pay attention to the BOM / Configuration, especially the drives. Note that the estimates created via the Cisco Commerce website (CCW) checks for a valid configuration of the initial cluster. However, when ordering expansion nodes, CCW checks do not work, because CCW does not have any information about the drives previously ordered. This document is intended to communicate the compatibility of drives when expanding the cluster either through addition of new nodes or by adding data drives to existing nodes.

Chapter 3. Reading the Tables

- Reading the Tables

Reading the Tables

HyperFlex currently does not support mixing of different server types in the same cluster. Each of the tables shows the compatible drives for a particular server version. The tables are designed to describe the compatible drive PIDS and specify the minimum HXDP release required to expand the cluster.

Compatibility Table Example

Current M4 PID (Min HXDP Version)

M5 Expansion PID (Min HXDP Version)

Drive Function:System Drive (Housekeeping)

HX-SD120GBKS4-EB (2.5)

HX-SD120GBKS4-EV (1.8)

HX-SD240GBKS4-EB (2.5)

HX-SD240GBKS4-EV (1.8)

HX-SD240G61X-EV (2.6)

HX-SD240GM1X-EV (3.5)

Compatible Drives: Compatible drives listed in the same row and outlined in black are compatible with each other. In the Housekeeping example: HX-SD240G61X-EV and HX-SD240GM1X-EV are compatible with each and can be used on the same cluster at the same time. If the node takes more than one drive of this type (which is not the case with system drive), then you can use the mixed PID on the same node as well.

Each HyperFlex node requires several different types of drives to be functional. The drive function is indicated in the first column of the table.

Incompatible Drives: Drives listed in different rows are not compatible with each other. In the Capacity Drive (Data) example: a new node or added capacity drive with a cluster currently using drives HX-SD38TBE1NK9, is not compatible with drives HX-SD38TBHTNK9 or drives HX-SD38T2HTNK9, but is compatible with drive HX-SD38TBEM2NK9 in the same row only.

Incompatible Drive Example

Current M4 PID (Min HXDP Version)

M5 Expansion PID (Min HXDP Version)

Drive Function:System Drive (Housekeeping)

-

HX-SD38TBE1NK9 (2.6)

HX-SD38TBEM2NK9 (4.0(2c))

-

HX-SD38TBHTNK9 (3.5(2a))

HX-SD38T2HTNK9 (4.0(2a))

Minimum HXDP Version: HX-SD240GM1X-EV (3.5) means this 240G Housekeeping drive support was added in HXDP release version 3.5. To expand a cluster with a node containing this drive, you must first upgrade to the minimum release (3.5(2e) in this case). The recommended HXDP release for different configurations can be found in the Recommended Cisco HyperFlex HX Data Platform Software Releases - for Cisco HyperFlex HX-Series Systems.

Compatibility Catalog : This new capability simplifies the introduction of new drives by allowing customers to perform an HX drive catalog-only upgrade to start consuming new drives and models introduced in the future, without requiring a HyperFlex Data Platform upgrade. Please note that you may need to update a separate UCS drive catalog as well. This ESXi feature is supported on PIDs identified with the minimum HXDP version+Catalog.

Chapter 7. Equivalent UCS PIDs for HX Drives

- Equivalent UCS PIDs for HX Drives

Equivalent UCS PIDs for HX Drives

For details on how to read the table, see Reading the Tables.

Cisco announced the End-of-Sale (EoS) for HyperFlex drives concurrent with the overall HyperFlex End-of-Life (EoL) announcement in September 2023. Subsequently, all HyperFlex hardware components, including drives, reached their End-of-Sale date on March 12, 2024. Because of the aforementioned End-of-Sale (EoS) for HyperFlex drives, the original HyperFlex Part Identification Numbers (PIDs) are no longer available for purchase. However, you can still expand the storage capacity of your existing HyperFlex cluster by utilizing equivalent UCS PIDs. The following table provides a cross-reference between HyperFlex PIDs and their corresponding equivalent UCS PIDs that can be ordered for this purpose.

Important

It is essential to refer to the below table before placing an order to ensure you select the appropriate UCS PIDs that correspond to your specific HyperFlex PIDs End of Sale (EoS).
