Part of Supermicro’s BigTwin line of servers, the Supermicro BigTwin SuperServer 2029BT-HNR has 4x separate dual-socket server nodes in a 2U chassis. Each server node supports one or two 2nd generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, for up to 8x CPUs total and up to 24TB of memory with all 4x servers outfitted with dual processors.
Designed for compute intensive applications, the Supermicro BigTwin SuperServer 2029BT-HNR is a great option for high-performance computing plus hyperconverged and hyperscale networks. Each of the four nodes supports dual intel Xeon Scalable processors from the first and second generation with up to 28 cores and 48 threads. The chassis supports the storage up front with 24x total NVMe drives and six allocated to each of the 4x server nodes.
Either first- or second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors are supported with up to 28 cores each and a TDP ranging from 70-205W. However, high-wattage CPUs 200W and above are only supported in certain configurations. Each CPU also supports 6 memory channels and up to 48 lanes of PCIe 3.0.
The BigTwin 2029BT-HNR allows administrators to choose from 3DS registered (RDIMM), load-reduced (LRDIMM), and data centric persistent memory modules (DCPMM) from Intel Optane. Maximum capacity listed for LRDIMM and RDIMM memory modules for each of the 4x server sleds is listed at up to 6TB with all 24x memory slots outfitted with 256GB memory modules. Intel Optane memory modules are also supported providing greater speed and resiliency. Memory will run at up to 2933MHz with an appropriate 2nd generation Intel processor that supports that memory speed.
The Supermicro 2029BT-HNR has 24x hot-swap NVMe storage bays lining the front of the system. The drive bays are distributed evenly between the four server nodes, with each server sled allocated 6x drive bays. A carrier card can be installed in each of the server sleds to support either two M.2 NVMe or SATA3 drives.
Two mezzanine card slots on each of the server sleds supports PCIe 3.0 x16 cards. A Supermicro I/O module (SIOM) slot is specifically for support of an I/O card offering additional network connection ports. There is also a dedicated management port on the back of each of the server sleds.
The rear integrated platform management interface 2.0 (IPMI 2.0) LAN port provides access to the Aspeed AST2500 baseboard management controller (BMC). The BMC provides at-chassis and remote management of the BigTwin SuperServer 2029BT-HNR. Additional management applications are available providing more granular control over your server nodes.
BigTwin servers feature 2x to 4x server nodes and deliver dense compute for a 2U platform. The Supermicro BigTwin 2029BT-HNR delivers 4x dual socket Intel Xeon Scalable processor server nodes, ideal for support of a number of high-performance computing applications and for use in the datacenter or as an enterprise server.
