Figure 24 shows an example configuration with a pair of Ethernet cables connected
to port 3 in each canister.

Connecting Fibre Channel cables to an 8 Gbps Fibre Channel 4-port
host interface card

If your Storwize V7000 has 8 Gbps Fibre Channel 4-port host interface cards
installed, you can use Fibre Channel cables to connect them to your Fibre Channel
SAN.

Procedure

To install the cables, complete the following steps.

1.

Connect the required number of Fibre Channel cables. Refer to the “Planning”
section of the information center for instructions on determining the number of
cables required.

Note:

Both canisters must have the same number of cables connected.

Figure 25 shows an example configuration with two Fibre Channel cables
connected to each canister.

2.

If you want to connect additional Fibre Channel cables, make sure to connect
the same number of cables to each canister. Figure 26 on page 27 shows an
example configuration with four Fibre Channel cables connected to each
canister.
