describes default configurations for the HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 Storage
system:
Table 1 Storage System Expansion Cards
Nodes 2 and 3
Nodes 0 and 1
Expansion cards
No expansion card
1 FC HBA each
2 FC HBAs only
No expansion card
1 10 Gb/s CNA each
2 10 Gb/s converged network
adapter (CNA) only
1 10 Gb/s CNA each
