Keyboard/video/mouse
The
keyboard/video/mouse
(KVM)
connects
the
ports
on
all
nodes
(cluster,
storage,
and
management)
to
a
single
console
through
a
central
switch.
Fibre-channel
cables
Fibre-channel
cables
provide
fibre-channel
connections
between
the
storage
nodes
and
the
storage
servers
and
between
the
storage
servers
and
the
storage
expansion
units.
Power
distribution
units
The
power
distribution
unit
provides
the
power
to
the
cluster
components.
This
includes
both
the
power
to
the
entire
cabinet
through
the
PDUs
and
remote
power
to
the
terminal
servers
through
the
power
management
module.
Connecting
the
cables
Cables
and
the
cable
harnesses
in
each
cabinet
are
labeled
with
information
that
tells
where
to
connect
each
end
of
the
cable.
Each
label
identifies
the
device
or
node
it
connects
to,
and
where
applicable,
its
port
number.
Depending
on
the
country
of
manufacture
the
label
scheme
will
vary.
Before
you
begin
attaching
cables,
become
familiar
with
the
information
on
the
labels.
When
installing
a
Cluster
1350,
start
with
the
primary
cabinet.
After
you
have
connected
the
intracabinet
cables
inside
the
primary
cabinet,
move
on
to
each
expansion
cabinet
and
use
the
information
printed
on
each
cable
label
to
connect
the
cables
in
the
cabinet.
After
you
have
connected
any
cables
in
the
primary
cabinet
and
expansion
cabinets,
connect
the
cables
that
run
between
the
cabinets.
This
is
called
the
intercabinet
cabling.
For
a
complete
listing
of
all
available
cables
and
their
part
numbers,
see
http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/.
The
information
is
also
available
in
the
IBM
Current
Object
Repository
(CORE)
system.
Note:
Each
intercabinet
cable
has
labels
at
both
ends.
You
can
use
the
information
on
the
label
to
create
a
site
map
to
document
all
cable
routing.

Gigabit
Ethernet
cabling
The
1
Gb
Ethernet
provides
a
high-speed
optical
trunk
line
for
VLAN
communication
with
the
management
node.
Myrinet
high-speed
switch
cabling
The
Myrinet
high-speed
switch
provides
an
optional
2
Gb
optical
network
for
communications
between
cluster
nodes
and
storage
nodes.
10/100/1000
Ethernet
cabling
The
10/100/1000
Ethernet
switch
provides
an
optional
10/100/1000
network
for
communications
between
cluster
nodes
and
storage
nodes.
