Rear Cable Connections and Ports
FIGURE 1
Rear Panel Cabling Reference
No. Cable Port or Expansion Slot Description
1 Power supply 0 input power The storage server has two power supply connectors, one for each power
supply.
Do not attach power cables to the power supplies until you have finished
connecting the data cables to the storage server. The storage server goes into
standby power mode, and the Oracle ILOM service processor initializes
when the AC power cables are connected to the power source. System
messages might be lost after 60 seconds if the storage server is not connected
to a terminal, PC, or workstation.
Note -
Oracle ILOM signals a fault on any installed power supply that
is not connected to an AC power source, since it might indicate a loss of
redundancy.
2 Power supply 1 input power
3 Ethernet ports (NET 3, NET 2, NET 1, NET 0) The four 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports enable you to connect the system to the
network. See “Ethernet Ports” on page 63 for more information.
4 USB ports (USB 0, USB 1) The two USB ports support hot-plugging. You can connect and disconnect
USB cables and peripheral devices while the storage server is running
without affecting system operations.
5 Network management port (NET MGT) The service processor NET MGT port is the optional connection to the
Oracle ILOM service processor. The NET MGT port is configured by default
to use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). The service processor
NET MGT port uses an RJ-45 cable for a 10/100/1000BASE-T connection.
6 Serial management port (SER MGT) The service processor SER MGT port uses an RJ-45 cable and is the default
connection to the Oracle ILOM service processor. This port supports
local connections to the storage server and only recognizes Oracle ILOM
command-line interface (CLI) commands. Typically, you connect a terminal
or terminal emulator to this port.
