Cabling the Appliance
This section contains cabling procedures for appliance installation, including connections to the
controller service processor (SP) and network, cluster cabling, as well as cabling between disk
shelves and controllers.
Use the following procedures to cable the appliance:
■
“Connecting System Cables” on page 171
■
“Connecting Cluster Cables” on page 172
■
“Connecting Disk Shelf Cables” on page 175
For cabling and cabinet guidelines, see “Cabinet Configuration Guidelines” on page 15 . For a
wide range of specific cabling configurations, refer to “Getting Started with Cabling” in Oracle
ZFS Storage Appliance Cabling Guide .
Connecting System Cables
Use the following procedure to make a physical serial or network connection to Oracle ILOM.
It is strongly recommended that you use a serial SP connection for system configuration and
initial configuration because you can monitor progress, especially during system reboots.
Afterwards, it is recommended that you remove the serial connection if you do not need it
for CLI access. Instead, make a network SP connection, which allows for better collection of
platform data.
Caution -
Failure to configure Oracle ILOM connectivity after initial setup may lead to longer
than necessary hardware fault diagnosis and resolution times. For more information about
Oracle ILOM, see “Using Oracle ILOM to Diagnose Hardware Faults” in Oracle ZFS Storage
Appliance Cabling Guide .
Before You Begin
Ensure the storage controllers and disk shelves are installed, but not cabled together.
If making a serial connection to the SP (recommended), ensure that you have configured the
administrative client as described in “Configuring the System” on page 184 .
