Connecting the HA interconnect
About this task
Cable the HA interconnect to provide communication between the two nodes of the HA pair. The physical labeling on the
network daughter card ports is different from how the ports are identified in the DD OS software. The following table lists the
physical and software identifiers for each port.
Table 16. Physical and DD OS network daughter card port identifiers
Physical port number DD OS port identifier
1 ethMa
2 ethMb
3 ethMc
4 ethMd
Steps
1. Connect a 10G Base-T cable from port 3 of the network daughter card on the primary node to port 3 of the network
daughter card on the standby node.
2. Connect a 10G Base-T cable from port 4 of the network daughter card on the primary node to port 4 of the network
daughter card on the standby node.
NOTE: The system ships with a third 10G Base-T cable for the HA interconnect, but it is not required.

Slot numbers
The following figure shows the HBA slot numbers.
The slot labeled N is the network daughter card, which contains ports ethMa, ethMb, ethMc, and ethMd. The management port
ethMa is the first port set up by the Configuration Wizard. It is marked with a red rectangle in the figure below.
