Fibre / Fibre Configuration Examples
FAStT EXP700 with FAStT700 Fibre Channel 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. FC2-133 Host Bus Adapter (P/N 24P0960) includes an integrated short-wave SFF Module, supporting short-wave 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.
• A maximum of 224 external storage HDDs are supported through a maximum of eight enclosures in a redundant loop (cable pair). The maximum number of enclosures
supported is 16. A maximum of two loops running in redundant mode are supported with four drive-side mini hubs.
• 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 SFP Module is required for all FAStT EXP700 storage connections. FAStT700 and 2Gb Fibre Channel switch connections require SFP Modules.
SFP Modules and adapter cables are not depicted in these diagrams. See device drawings at the end of this section for details.
• For specific requirements concerning connections, refer to the Fibre Device Ports Reference or Fibre Interconnection Guidelines.
Refer to the Supported Cable Groups chart following the FAStT 200 configuration examples for cable type definitions.
