Understanding the Hardware Components and Connections
Oracle ILOM Management Network Physical Connections (SPARC T5-8
Servers)
Each SPARC T5-8 server connects to the Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM)
management network through a single Oracle ILOM network port (NET MGT port) at the rear
of each SPARC T5-8 server. One IP address is required for Oracle ILOM management for each
SPARC T5-8 server.
See “NET MGT and NET0-3 Port Locations (SPARC T5-8 Servers)” on page 31 for more
information on the location of the NET MGT port.
1-GbE Host Management Network Physical Connections (SPARC T5-8
Servers)
Each SPARC T5-8 server connects to the 1-GbE host management network through the four
1-GbE host management ports at the rear of each SPARC T5-8 server (NET0 - NET3 ports).
However, the way the 1-GbE host management connections are used differs from the physical
connections due to logical domains. For more information, see “Understanding the Software
Configurations” on page 46.
See “NET MGT and NET0-3 Port Locations (SPARC T5-8 Servers)” on page 31 for more
information on the location of the 1-GbE host management ports.
10-GbE Client Access Network Physical Connections (SPARC T5-8
Servers)
Each SPARC T5-8 server contains several dual-ported Sun Dual 10-GbE SFP+ PCIe 2.0 Low
Profile network interface cards (NICs). The number of 10-GbE NICs and their locations in the
SPARC T5-8 servers varies, depending on the configuration of Oracle SuperCluster T5-8:
■
Full Rack: Eight 10-GbE NICs, installed in these PCIe slots:
■
PCIe slot 1
■
PCIe slot 2
■
PCIe slot 5
■
PCIe slot 6
■
PCIe slot 9
■
PCIe slot 10
■
PCIe slot 13
■
PCIe slot 14
■
Half Rack: Four 10-GbE NICs, installed in these PCIe slots:
