Pcie3 Lp 4-Port (10Gb Fcoe And 1Gbe) Copper And Rj45 Adapter (Fc El3C; Ccin 2Cc1) - IBM 74Y4064 Handbook

Slot requirement
For more information about slot priorities, maximums, and placement rules, see PCIe adapter
placement rules and slot priorities (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER9/
p9eab/p9eab_mtm_pciplacement.htm) and select the system that you are working on.
Voltage
3.3 V
Form factor
Short, low-profile but packaged for full-height installations.
Cables
Specific X, YO, AA, or AT SAS cable features with new narrow HD connectors are used to attach
to the other adapter or disk expansion drawers.
SAS device attachment requires specific cables that are provided with the subsystem or device
features that are being attached. Special cabling is required for multi-initiator and high
availability configurations. Specific AE1 or YE1 SAS cable features are required for SAS Tape
attachment. See Serial attached SCSI cable planning.
Attributes
v Four external mini SAS HD 4x connectors provide attachment of SAS device enclosures
v SAS Serial SCSI Protocol (SSP) and Serial Management Protocol (SMP)
v RAID 0, 5, 6, or 10 with hot-spare capability. System level mirroring through the operating
system is also supported. JBOD functionality (512 byte) is supported in a single controller
configuration only.
v Concurrent firmware update
v Removable media device (SAS Tape) are supported in a single controller configuration only
and cannot be combined with disk devices attached to the same adapter. Removable media is
not supported in multi-initiator and high availability (dual storage IOA) configurations
v Support for multi-initiator and high availability or single controller configurations
Operating system or partition requirements
If you are installing a new feature, ensure that you have the software that is required to support the new
feature and that you determine whether any prerequisites must be met for this feature and attaching
devices. To check for operating system and partition requirements, see one of the following links:
