QuestionQ15

Explain HPE compute AI and HPC solution components and architecture

Which statement accurately describes the hardware security capabilities of HPE Cray XD systems?

  • A A BMC ASIC enables secure boot any root of trust capabilities similar to those in HPE iLO.
  • B The HPE Cray XD systems include a sidecar node dedicated to security functions, such as monitoring firmware and OS for compromise.
  • C The HPE Cray XD systems use the same iLO ASIC and firmware as the HPE ProLiant DL line.
  • D BMC software integrates with an iLO ASIC to provide hardware root of trust capabilities.
Explanation

HPE Cray XD systems use their own BMC ASIC to establish a hardware root of trust and support secure boot, delivering capabilities comparable to HPE iLO without using the iLO ASIC or firmware. HPE documentation notes that HPE Cray servers do not support HPE iLO.
