I hate doing this, but because this is sensitive, I have copy pasta-d the HPE Customer statement from our Customer Presentation on the issue: HPE, along with all other server vendors, is starting to see supply constraints on various Intel Xeon-SP processors—commonly referred to as Skylake—used in our Gen10 servers. –Intel is supply tight on Skylake SP HCC, Skylake SP LCC, Skylake SP XCC, and Skylake W LCC processor series. –Customer demand for various Skylake server processors is exceeding short-term supply. –Intel is working diligently to increase supply but indicates limited ability to materially improve Skylake availability potentially through December 2018.
