File Modules - IBM Storwize V7000 Unified Quick Installation Manual

About this task
This task guides you through connecting both the internal and external Ethernet
connections for your system.
This task assumes that your initial planning has determined where the Ethernet
cables are to be located. The Storwize V7000 Unified control enclosure requires at
least one and a maximum of two 1 Gbps Ethernet connections to each node
canister. Refer to Figure 37, Figure 38 on page 50, and Table 16 on page 50. For the
file modules, the first two 1 Gbps Ethernet ports labelled 1 and 2 in Figure 39
on page 51 are used for internal communications between the file modules. Refer
to Figure 39 on page 51.
Note: It is important that the file modules are able to communicate over the
network with the Storwize V7000 control enclosure for management and service.

1 Fibre Channel ports (8 Gbps). Each node canister has four Fibre Channel
v
ports. They are in a block of four in two rows of two connectors. The ports are
numbered 1 - 4 from left to right, top to bottom. Two ports connect to the file
modules and two are connected to the SAN.
2 USB ports. Each node canister has two USB ports. The ports are side by side
v
on the canister and are numbered 1 on the left and 2 on the right. One port is
used during installation.
3 Ethernet ports (1 Gbps). Each canister has two Ethernet ports. The ports are
v
side by side on the canister. They are numbered 1 on the left and 2 on the right
on the upper canister. The port locations are inverted for the lower canister. Port
1 must be connected first; the use of port 2 is optional.
4 Serial-attached SCSI (SAS) ports (6 Gbps). Each node canister has two SAS
v
ports. The ports are side by side on the canister. They are numbered 1 on the left
and 2 on the right. Port 1 must be connected first if you are adding one
expansion enclosure. Port 2 must be connected if you are adding a second
expansion enclosure.
