Fibre / Fibre Configuration Examples
FAStT EXP500 with FAStT500 Storage Server
Note: The following sample configurations are for illustration only and may not be suitable
for any specific customer installation. Contact your IBM Business Partner or IBM Marketing
Representative for assistance with your specific configuration requirements.
1. FAStT Host Adapter (P/N 00N6881) supports shortwave connections only.
2. Buffering the long-wave optic cable expanse with a second switch or hub at the remote storage location is required to requalify the signal.
• P = primary path, S = secondary (redundant) path
• Shaded boxes represent separate hosts.
• Cable groups are represented by letters in parenthesis.
• Maximum of 220 external storage HDDs are supported through 11 enclosures in each cable pair.
• The number of servers that can be used in configurations with managed hubs or Fibre Channel switches are dependent on partitioning restrictions of the management system
or cluster software.
• An optional short- or long-wave GBIC is required for all FAStT500 storage server and FAStT EXP500 storage connections. GBICs are not depicted in these diagrams. See device
drawings at the end of this section for details. Other Fibre Channel devices may not require optional GBICs. For specific requirements, see
the Fibre Device Ports Reference.
Refer to the Supported Cable Groups chart following the FAStT 200 configuration examples for cable type definitions.
