Minimum one memory kit per processor must be installed into the system.
It is recommended to install four identical memory kits for quad-channel symmetric memory
configurations to increase memory transfer speed.
At least 5 GB of memory is required for VMware ESXi 5.5 / 6.0.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION GUIDE – NEC Express5800/B120g-h
NIC Partitioning feature
The 10GbE Controllers support NIC partitioning which is the ability to configure a single 10GbE port into
two or four virtual NICs. To use NIC Partitioning, please note the following:




NIC Partitioning should be enabled to install Windows Server operating systems.
NIC Partitioning should be configured under the maximum configuration limits for networking when
running with VMware systems. For more detail, see the Networking Maximum in the Configuration
Maximums document for VMware. VMware system counts each divided network port as nx_nic 10Gb
Ethernet port.
For connections between virtual machines on the same server, configure the virtual machines on the
same virtual switch or disable NIC Partitioning.
An external switch may not loopback depending on its function or setting. For connections between
controllers, confirm your network specifications in advance.
NIC Teaming feature
The Server blade supports NIC teaming which is the ability to configure multiple NICs to a single network
interface for fault tolerance and load balancing.
Windows Server 2012 R2 supports NIC teaming feature.
When using NIC teaming, please note the following:


Any of the network teaming must be processed in a single LAN controller.
Teaming feature is not supported when iSCSI is used in network interface.
iSCSI Offload Feature
See the table below for the support matrix of NIC cards supporting iSCSI, available operating systems, and
iSCSI offload feature.
