About the HPE ProLiant DL560 Storage Gen11

The HPE ProLiant DL560 Storage Gen11 (P28497-B21) delivers a 2U rack-mounted architecture with four processor sockets and support for Intel Xeon Scalable 4th Generation CPUs, positioning this system as a high-capacity compute and storage consolidation tier for demanding enterprise workloads. Built on the Intel C741 chipset, this platform combines 48 DIMM slots (12 per processor) supporting DDR5 RDIMM and LRDIMM memory with flexible internal storage bays configured for SFF SAS, SATA, and NVMe drives—enabling dense multi-tier storage strategies within a single 2U footprint. The embedded HPE SR controller and optional HPE Smart Array controller provide enterprise-grade storage management, while up to 11 PCIe Gen 5 expansion slots accommodate additional storage adapters, network interfaces, or accelerators without compromise.

For storage architects and IT procurement teams evaluating infrastructure refresh cycles, the DL560 Gen11 integrates HPE iLO 6 management, HPE Silicon Root of Trust security, Trusted Platform Module 2.0 support, and Secure Boot to meet modern compliance requirements. Redundant hot-plug power supplies and redundant fan modules with high-efficiency airflow ensure operational continuity. Embedded HPE Ethernet adapters support standard connectivity, with PCIe expansion slots enabling custom network scaling. The system supports Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware vSphere, providing broad operating system flexibility for mixed-workload deployments.

Typical Deployment Scenarios

  • High-density virtualization platforms requiring 48 memory slots and four-socket processing for large VM populations
  • Consolidated storage and compute environments leveraging SFF SAS/SATA/NVMe bay flexibility and HPE Smart Array controller redundancy
  • Database and data warehouse appliances combining DDR5 memory capacity with PCIe Gen 5 bandwidth for analytics workloads
  • Multi-protocol storage nodes (iSCSI, Fibre Channel, NVMe-oF) configured via embedded and expansion NICs within a 2U chassis
  • VMware vSphere and Red Hat Enterprise Linux infrastructures requiring four-socket scalability and hot-plug redundant subsystems
