Question

A customer completed a successful Synergy PoC consisting of a single frame with dual composers and dual Virtual Connect SE 40Gb F8 modules. The customer needs additional frames to allow for growth. They require 20GB to each compute module. How may additional frames can be added to the existing logical enclosure?

Explanation

Option C is correct because the HPE Virtual Connect SE 40Gb F8 module supports a maximum of 4 frames in a single logical enclosure, and with 1 frame already in place, exactly 3 additional frames can be added while still guaranteeing 20Gb of bandwidth to each compute module. Options A (1) and B (2) underestimate the module's multi-frame capability - the F8's 8 downlink ports can scale beyond just 2 or 3 total frames. Option D (5) is a trap: while HPE Synergy logical enclosures support up to 5 frames in general, the VC SE 40Gb F8 module's bandwidth ceiling means a 5-frame configuration would fail to deliver the required 20Gb per compute - and 5 additional frames would exceed the absolute 5-frame logical enclosure maximum entirely.

Memory tip: Think "F8 = Four frames, Eight downlinks" - the F8 module's 8 downlinks max out at 4 total frames in a logical enclosure, so starting with 1, you always add 3.
