Cabling The Dell EqualLogic PS4000/PS4100/PS6010/PS6510 Storage Arrays
1.Connect a network cable from the network switch 0 to Ethernet 0 on the control module 1.
2.Connect a network cable from the network switch 0 to Ethernet 0 on the control module 0.
3.Connect a network cable from the network switch 1 to Ethernet 1 on the control module 1.
4.Connect a network cable from the network switch 1 to Ethernet 1 on the control module 0.
5.Repeat steps 1 to 4 to connect the additional Dell EqualLogic PS4000/PS4100/PS6010/PS6510 storage array(s) to the iSCSI switches.
NOTE: For PS4100 storage array, having all 4 cables in steps 1 through 4 provides highest level of cable redundancy. It works fine with only 2 cables. You can skip either step 1 or 2, and either step 3 or 4.
For more information, see the figures below.
