Dell PowerEdge M1000e Enclosure Owner's Manual

PDF

System Overview

Your system can include up to 16 half-height blades (server modules), eight full-height blades, eight sleeves with quarter-height blades, or a mix of the three blade types. To function as a system, a blade or sleeve is inserted into an enclosure (chassis) that supports power supplies, fan modules, a Chassis Management Controller (CMC) module, and at least one I/O module for external network connectivity. The power supplies, fans, CMC, optional iKVM module, and I/O modules are shared resources of the blades in the PowerEdge M1000e enclosure.

NOTE: To ensure proper operation and cooling, all bays in the enclosure must be populated at all times with either a module or with a blank.
