Connections to the two fabric ports of the optional fibre channel daughter card are provided for each of the ten server blade slots. In the case of 4-way server blades, connections for a total of four fabric ports are therefore available.

The FC switch blade in the NET3 slot is connected to port A of the installed fibre channel daughter cards. The FC switch blade in the NET4 slot is connected to port B of the installed fibre channel daughter cards.

Figure 60: Slots for FC switch blades

The installation of two FC switch blades enables redundant fibre channel connections to be provided for the server blades.

VCAUTION

FC switch blades must always be installed in slot NET3 first. This ensures that port A of the FC daughter cards is connected if redundant fibre channel connections are not used.

If Gigabit Ethernet daughter cards are installed in the server blades, LAN switch blades (see page 81) or Ethernet pass-thru blades (see page 99) must be installed in slots NET3 and NET4.

Simultaneous operation of Ethernet blades and fibre channel blades in slots NET3 and NET4 is not permitted.

The configuration examples below show the assignment of the FC daughter card ports to the LAN switch blades in slots NET3 and NET4.
