Gpu And Coprocessor Adapters - IBM NeXtScale System Planning And Implementation Manual

Only GPUs and coprocessors are supported in the PCIe Native Expansion Tray
and only those listed in 4.10, "GPU and coprocessor adapters" on page 92. The
PCIe Native Expansion Tray also includes the auxiliary power connectors and
cables for each adapter slot necessary for each supported GPU and
coprocessor.

4.10 GPU and coprocessor adapters

The nx360 M4 supports GPU adapters and coprocessors when the IBM
NeXtScale PCIe Native Expansion Tray is attached, as described in 4.9, "IBM
NeXtScale PCIe Native Expansion Tray" on page 90. Table 4-21 lists the
supported adapters.
The operating systems supported by each GPU and coprocessor adapter is
listed in 4.18, "Operating systems support" on page 112.
Configuration rules are as follows:
The use of GPUs or coprocessors require the use of the IBM NeXtScale PCIe
Native Expansion Tray
One or two GPUs or coprocessors can be installed
If two GPU adapters or coprocessors are installed, they must be identical
1300W power supplies are required in the chassis
200-240 Vac utility power is required - 100-127 Vac is not supported
Refer to 3.3, "Supported compute nodes" on page 29 for supported quantities
of servers with GPUs installed
