System Overview
switch module is the minimum configuration for external networking, with a second switch
module allowing network redundancy.
See Section 3.6 for a description of this module.
2.3.2.2
Storage Controller Module
The chassis can accommodate up to two hot-swap storage controller modules to support the
external hard disks in the front storage enclosure. One storage controller is the minimum
configuration, with a second storage controller allowing storage controller redundancy. Storage
controller failures are automatically detected and hard drive access is maintained through the
operational storage controller.
See Section 3.7 for a description of this system.
2.3.3
Chassis Management Module
The chassis management module or chassis management module 2, installed in the middle-
rear of the chassis amid the four I/O slots, provides an Internet browser interface that allows for
configuration and management of the entire Intel
MFSYS25/MFSYS35. This module is not redundant, but the system continues to operate
normally should this module fail although any changes to the system configuration cannot be
made until the failed chassis management module is replaced.
Note: The chassis management module 2 is for Intel
MFSYS25V2 only.
See Section 3.5 for a description of this module.
2.3.4
Main Cooling Module
Two hot-swap cooling modules are installed on the left rear of the chassis. Each cooling module
contains two redundant fans that operate in a (1+1) cooling redundancy. Cooling module 1
cools compute modules 1-3; cooling module 2 cools compute modules 4-6.
