Cabling 2 Two-Node Clusters to a Dell/EMC AX4-5FX Storage System
The following steps are an example of how to cable a 2 two-node cluster to a
Dell/EMC AX4-5FX storage system:
1
In the first cluster, connect cluster node 1 to the storage system:
a
Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA port 0 to the first front-end
fibre channel port on SP-A.
b
Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA port 1 to the first front-end
fibre channel port on SP-B.
2
In the first cluster, connect cluster node 2 to the storage system:
a
Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 0 to the second front-end
fibre channel port on SP-A.
b
Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 1 to the second front-end
fibre channel port on SP-B.
3
In the second cluster, connect cluster node 1 to the storage system:
a
Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA port 0 to the third front-end
fibre channel port on SP-A.
b
Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA port 1 to the third front-end
fibre channel port on SP-B.
4
In the second cluster, connect cluster node 2 to the storage system:
a
Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 0 to the fourth front-end
fibre channel port on SP-A.
b
Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 1 to the fourth front-end
fibre channel port on SP-B.
