FC SAN connectivity Figure 8 shows FC port connectivity in the c7000 enclosure for full-height and half-height server blades connecting to a SAN through FC interconnect modules. Figure 8. Server blade-to-SAN connectivity for the HP c7000 Enclosure, dimensional view FC interconnect module in even-numbered bay SAN FC HBA mezzanine card (1x card) FC interconnect module in odd-numbered-bay Full-height server blade Port 1 routing Port 2 routing Half-height server blade c7000 enclosure midplane Each FC interconnect module (pass-thru, virtual connect, or switch) provides connections for up to 16 server blades. To ensure high availability, each FC HBA mezzanine card is dual-ported, and each port is routed to a separate interconnect bay. For example, as indicated in Figure 6 and in Table 1, the ports on an HBA mezzanine card in slot 1 are routed to bays 3 and 4. Interconnect modules must be installed in pairs if redundancy is required.
