Serial number of the enclosure
can be obtained from the front
tag located at the left side of the
enclosure.
Each IBM Elastic Storage System 3200 system requires two Ethernet cables to connect it to an Ethernet
switch. One cable connects to the Ethernet port of the left server canister, and the other cable connects to
Ethernet port of the right server canister.
Each IBM Elastic Storage System 3200 server canister has two PCIe interface slots to support optional
host interface adapters. The host interface adapters can be supported in any of the interface slots. The
following table provides an overview of the host interface adapters.

100 Gb Ethernet AJZN 2 per adapter 01LL634 2-4
Note: Each server canister within the IBM Elastic Storage System 3200 system (building block) must be
congured with the same host interface adapters.
Planning for adapters
IBM Elastic Storage System 3200 contains two server canisters. Each server canister has two PCIe
interface slots to support extra adapters. InniBand and Ethernet adapters are supported in any of the
interface slots. In addition, each server canister contains one Onboard Ethernet port and one SSR access
port.
Important: Both server canisters in an IBM Elastic Storage System 3200 system (same building block)
must be congured with the same adapters. Both server canisters must have identical conguration.
