Dual Xeon Gold 6242 blade server

The HPE BL460c Gen10 packs two 16-core Xeon Gold 6242 processors at 2.8 GHz with 64 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. It targets virtualisation hosts, database nodes and HPC clusters that need dense compute in a half-height blade form factor.

Thermals noise and power profile

Dual processors and 2.5-inch 10K SAS drives draw significant power under load; the chassis fans ramp to maintain thermal limits in a populated enclosure. Acoustic output is typical for enterprise blade bays and not suited for office or quiet-room deployment.

Upgrade path and fit

Replaces earlier Gen9 blades or rack servers where density and iLO Advanced remote management matter. The jump is worthwhile when workloads exceed 128 GB memory ceiling or require the Smart Array P204i-b SR controller for local RAID.

Questions about this item

How do I insert the BL460c G10 blade into its enclosure and which step is often missed?

Align the blade with the guide rails, push until the latch clicks, then secure the retention screw; the missed step is forgetting to lock the screw after the latch engages.

What maintenance will the 900 GB SAS drives need later?

Monitor SMART health via the Smart Array P204i-b SR controller and replace any drive that reports reallocated sectors or predictive failure alerts.

What limit appears first when both Xeon Gold 6242 CPUs run at 2.8 GHz under sustained load?

Thermal limits in the blade form factor typically throttle the 16-core processors before power or memory bandwidth becomes the bottleneck.
