I/O Virtualization support for VMware NetQueue , Microsoft's VMQ and Intel's VMDq technologies help
meet the performance demands of consolidated virtual workloads.
Compliant with Single-Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV), accommodating multiple Virtual Machines (VMs) to
share single PCIe resources. The device is capable of SR-IOV, and requires Firmware, Software and OS
support
Support hardware-enabled IEEE 1588, a standard that defines PTP (Precision Time Protocol), a high-
precision time protocol for clock synchronization used in measurement and control systems.
Not Supported
The HP 560FLB does not support accelerated iSCSI or iSCSI boot.
Supports the Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) allows the server to boot over the network and
download software residing in the network
Compatible with HP FlexibleLOM slot for c-Class Gen8 blade servers
The HP 560FLB adapter support for NIC teaming helps IT administrators increase network fault tolerance
and improve workload balance. These capabilities optimize availability, improve performance and help
reduce costs
The HP 560FLB adapter can be administered from HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM). The adapters can be
managed individually or in teams, providing SNMP based statistics for reporting purposes. The 560FLB
adapter can also be managed by other applications with SNMP support.
Support for HP's Sea of Sensors which is a collection of 32 sensors that automatically track thermal
activity - heat - across the server. When temperatures get too high, sensors can kick on fans and make
other adjustments to reduce energy usage. What makes it better is the upgrade from all six fans kicking on
at one time to a new system where only one kicks on - the one in proximity of the area that started heating
up - thus reducing the amount of energy used for cooling.
