Connecting Fibre Channel cables to a
10 Gbps iSCSI-FCoE 4-port host interface adapter
If 10 Gbps iSCSI-FCoE 4-port host interface adapters are installed on your
system, you can use Fibre Channel cables to connect them to your 10 Gbps Ethernet or FCoE
SAN.
About this task
The Fibre Channel cables are connected in pairs. Both canisters must have the same number
of cables connected.
Procedure
To install the cables, complete the following steps.
If optional 4-port 10 Gbps Ethernet host interface adapters are
installed in the node canisters, connect each port to the network that will provide connectivity to
that port.
To provide redundant connectivity, connect both node canisters in a control enclosure to the
same networks.
