Page 73 highlights

a server that is connected to the network has a Remote Supervisor Adapter and an integrated ASM processor, the server uses two connections on the network. v The network must include at least one server with a Remote Supervisor Adapter (either installed as an option or preinstalled in the server). You can connect up to 23 xSeries 335 servers into an ASM interconnect network using one Remote Supervisor Adapter. However, if you use both xSeries 335 and xSeries 330 servers in the network, the xSeries 330 servers must be the lowest-numbered servers in the chain. The following illustration shows an ASM interconnect network with three servers. 3 IN OUT ISM 2 IN OUT ISM 1 RS-485 on Remote Supervisor Adapter IN OUT ISM ASM link cable ASM interconnect module Video Keyboard Mouse You can add up to 23 more servers to the network by installing a Remote Supervisor adapter in the 24th server, creating a second ASM bus. The following illustration shows an ASM interconnect network with 46 servers. Chapter 4. Customer replaceable units 63
