Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 0 to SP-A, Fibre port - storage

Page 22 highlights

a Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 0 to SP-A Fibre port 1(second fibre port). b Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 1 to SP-B Fibre port 1(second fibre port). Figure 2-5 and Figure 2-6 illustrate the method of cabling a two-node direct-attached cluster to an AX4-5F and AX4-5FX storage system respectively. NOTE: The cables are connected to the storage processor ports in sequential order for illustrative purposes. While the available ports in your storage system may vary, HBA port 0 and HBA port 1 must be connected to SP-A and SP-B, respectively. Figure 2-5.
