a. Connect one end of an FC cable (not provided) to host port 0. Connect the other end to an
external FC switch/fabric that connects to your tape backup hosts.
b. If d esired, connect one end of an FC cable (not provided) to host por t 1. Connect the other end
to an external FC switch/fabric that connects to your tape backup hosts. Other wise, connect a
loopback plug to host port 1.
c. Connect one end of an FC cable (not provided) to device port 3. Connect the other end to an
external FC switch/fabric that connects to your external array.
d. Connect one end of an FC cable (not provided) to device port 2. Connect the other end to a
second external FC switch/fabric that connects to your external array.
e. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to NIC2. Connect the other end of the cable to port
2 of Switch 2824 (see Figure 1 0).
f. Connect one end of a USB cable to the USB por t. Connect the other end of the cable to the
USB/Ethernet adapter. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet end of the a d apter, then
connect the Ethernet c able to port 2 of Switch 2524 (see Figure 11).
g. Connect a power cable to each p ower supply on the node a n d to a PDU. If possible, connect to
separate PDUs to provide redundancy.
h. Continue routing the cables through the cable ties that shipped with the racks.
