Connecting Data Hosts to Controller Enclosures

This section explains how to connect the controller enclosure to data hosts through
Ethernet switches.
The controller enclosure has four host connections, two per controller. Connect
Ethernet cables from controller hosts ports to switch ports, and from switch ports to
data hosts, as shown in the following figure.
To maintain redundancy, connect each data host through the switch or switches to
both controller A and controller B. Make sure that link speed and topology settings
on switches match those on the controller host ports to which they are connected. A
speed mismatch prevents the host from accessing the storage system.
Note –
section show only relevant details such as host ports. For detailed illustrations
showing all components, see "Hardware Components and LEDs" on page 13.
