Cabling 2 Two-Node Clusters to a Dell/EMC AX4-5FX Storage System

The following steps are an example of how to cable a 2 two-node cluster to a Dell/EMC AX4-5FX storage system:

1In the first cluster, connect cluster node 1 to the storage system:

a Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA port 0 to the first front-end fibre channel port on SP-A.

b Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA port 1 to the first front-end fibre channel port on SP-B.

2In the first cluster, connect cluster node 2 to the storage system:

a Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 0 to the second front-end fibre channel port on SP-A.

b Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 1 to the second front-end fibre channel port on SP-B.

3In the second cluster, connect cluster node 1 to the storage system:

a Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA port 0 to the third front-end fibre channel port on SP-A.

b Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA port 1 to the third front-end fibre channel port on SP-B.

4In the second cluster, connect cluster node 2 to the storage system:

a Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 0 to the fourth front-end fibre channel port on SP-A.

b Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA port 1 to the fourth front-end fibre channel port on SP-B.
