Bill of materials for the Customer Hardware Solution – Small

To build your Customer Hardware Solution – Small Edge device, you must work with your preferred hardware vendor to acquire the Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) hardware components identified in the tables. Each row in the table lists a recommended hardware component, the associated HPE product number, and, in case the recommended HPE product is unavailable, approved HPE alternative components. If no approved alternative exists, the alternative is marked as N/A.

If you need more information on components or want to verify the components that you have purchased, see the HPE PartSurfer and search for the Product number. (On HPE PartSurfer, product numbers and part numbers may be different.)

Note: The Customer Hardware Solution – Small requires three (3) internal hard disks. The BYOC Premises – Customer Hardware Solution installer sets up two of the hard disks in a RAID 1 configuration and then sets up the third hard disk for support purposes. More specifically, the third hard disk stores local media used for factory image restoration and provides space for over-the-air operating system upgrades.

There are two chassis options to choose from:

Chassis option 1

Chassis option 1 includes one internal hard disk. Only two additional hard disks are needed.

All new CHS Large and CHS Small devices now run on the Amazon Linux 2023 operating system. This update improves the installation process, especially in high-security network environments, and gives administrators greater control and improved access to logs. The new BOM allows pre-packaged Linux Edge appliances to use the CHS installer as an alternative to RMA and offers improved support with OS-level password management.
