Healthy (Recovery Partition) and Healthy (OEM Partition) on Dell PowerEdge R730xd servers

We have purchased Dell PowerEdge R730xd  servers. After the installation we can see the Healthy (OEM Partition) with OS drive on One Server and on Other Server the partition with name Healthy (Recovery Partition). 

Is Healthy (Recovery Partition) and Healthy (OEM Partition)  have some used and purpose?

If they are different from each other and have different purpose then on what paramets system decide to create whether Healthy (Recovery Partition) and Healthy (OEM Partition) ?

Hello

The recovery partition is for the Windows Recovery Environment. The OEM partition can be used for many things. If it is around 39-40MB then it is likely system diagnostics.

Thanks

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your reply and I really apperciate it. Actually, we have purchased two Servers (Dell PowerEdge R730xd servers) and their partitions are configured as mentioned below. 


Server A: Healthy (EFI System Partition) and Healthy (Recovery Partition)

Server B: Healthy (EFI System Partition) and Healthy (OEM Partition)

The confusion is why one server have OEM partition and other does not have and vice versa for Recover partition.

Q1. If server does not have Recovery Partition then what would its impact on server?
Q2. If server does not have OEM Partition then what would its impact on server?
