    Rack Installation Specifications Rack Installation Requirements ● Cables between Nodes and Switches (10GBASE Port Connection) Cables used between nodes and switches vary depending on whether the cluster switches are connected to 10GBASE ports, 40GBASE ports, or 100GBASE ports. When the cluster switch is connected to a 10GBASE port, four cables are used for each HA pair (two nodes).

  • Page 65: Non-Fujitsu Racks

    The ETERNUS AX/HX storage systems are developed and their operation is guaranteed on the assumption that they are installed in Fujitsu 19-inch racks. Since the ETERNUS AX/HX cannot be tested (for cooling and strength) in non-Fujitsu 19-inch racks, the operations of ETERNUS AX/HX storage systems cannot be guaranteed. Any prob- lem that may occur by installing the ETERNUS AX/HX in non-Fujitsu racks is not covered by the warranty.
