is not part of the SP system. A backup control workstation does not satisfy
this requirement. This additional connection is used to access the control
workstation from the network when the SP nodes are down.
– SP Ethernet adapters for connection to the SP Ethernet The number of
Ethernet adapters required depends completely on the Ethernet topology
you use on your SP system. The following types of Ethernet adapters can
be used:
•
Ethernet adapters with thin BNC. Each Ethernet adapter of this type
can have only 30 network stations on a given Ethernet cable. The
control workstation and any routers are included in the 30 stations.
•
Ethernet adapters with twisted pair (RJ45/AUI). A network hub or
switch is required.
•
10/100 Mbps Ethernet adapters. A network hub or switch is required.
If your SP has more than two frames or you are considering a control
workstation that has the PCI type of bus, you need an asynchronous adapter
card to provide ports for the SP frames.
On SP systems with SP-attached servers and CES systems, an F50/F80 model
configured with 256 MB of memory and 4 of 9 GB disk is the minimum
configuration for a two frame system. It is recommended that an additional 256
MB is added for the next two frames, and then up to 1 GB for the larger systems.
7.2.3 Interface adapter requirements
Several different control workstations are available. Each model has different
communications adapters offered as standard equipment. Depending on the
model you choose, serial and Ethernet adapters may have to be added to the
workstation to satisfy the needs of your SP/CES system.
Serial port adapters
All new PCI control workstations require a minimum of one additional
asynchronous adapter. For additional PCI/MCA serial ports, select the
equipment you need from the feature codes shown in Table 7-2 on page 202.
Note: In addition to the listed PCI bus adapters, the 7024-EXX and 7025-F30
control workstations also support the listed ISA bus adapters. All other PCI
control workstations support only PCI bus adapters. PCI adapters offer
performance advantages in all PCI control workstations and should be used
whenever possible.
