1 MPX200 Multifunction Router overview
MPX200 features
The Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA) family of Fibre Channel (FC) storage systems is supported for
integrated iSCSI connectivity using the MPX200. The MPX200 hardware is integrated with up to four
EVA storage systems, for iSCSI connectivity, to deliver multi-protocol capabilities. This provides iSCSI
and FC attached servers access to block storage through an FC network and an Ethernet IP network
simultaneously. Also, FCIP and data migration capabilities are available for use.
The MPX200 is available from HP factory-integrated with an EVA storage system or as a field upgrade
to an existing EVA storage system. iSCSI connectivity to the EVA is provided for servers through a
standard 1-Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) or 10-GbE network interface controller (NIC).
The MPX200 chassis contains one or two router blades, two power and control modules (PCMs), and
a mid-plane. There are two types of router blades: a 4-port 1-GbE blade and a 2-port 10-GbE/2-port
1-GbE blade. Both blade options include two 8-Gb/s FC ports. MPX200 dual-blade configurations
provide for high availability with failover between blades.
NOTE:
Each PCM has three variable-speed fans that provide power and cooling. You can remove and replace
a PCM at any time. To ensure that the MPX200 chassis remains operational, there must be at least
one functioning PCM. Each PCM is capable of powering two blades. The PCM cools the corresponding
blade; therefore, when you remove a PCM, you must replace it within 7 minutes or the blade will shut
down due to an over-temperature condition.
