Switchless cluster
Cable cluster interconnect a
ports together in slot A4 and
B4 (e4a) and again in slot A8
and B8 (e8a).
Switched cluster
Cable cluster interconnect a
ports in slot A4 and B4
(e4a) and again in slot A8
and B8 (e8a) to the cluster
network switch.
Cable the wrench ports to
the management switches.
Cable ports in slot A3 and B3
(e3a and e3c) and slot A9
and B9 (e9a and e9c) to the
25 GbE network switches.
Cable host‐side b ports in
slot A4 and B4 (e4b) and slot
A8 and B8 (e8b) to the host
switch.
Cable ports in slot A5 and B5
(5a, 5b, 5c, and 5d) and slot
A7 and B7 (7a, 7b, 7c, and 7d)
to the 32 Gb FC network
switches.
Strap the cables to the
cable management arms
(not shown).
