VxRail "60" Appliance
Does anyone know the maximum about of memory I can add to the VxRail 60. There are two expansion bays, one empty that does not have an additional CPU and the other that has the CPU. Can only the bay with the CPU be upgraded? If I add another CPU will it use memory from the previous CPU bay or will I need to populate the new CPU bay?

That generation of hardware, including upgrades, was EOL'd in June 2017.

From specs sheet of VxRail 3.5: https://www.emc.com/collateral/specification-sheet/vxrail-ss-final.pdf
and you cannot add additional CPU into VxRail 60 as this meant as single socket.
from spec sheet is says 64 GB RAM / node

A new 1GbE node using 13th Gen or 14th Gen servers would be the way to expand the customers VxRail 60. There is still a limit of 8 nodes in the cluster. You can mix and match the generations of hardware.
