Fibre Channel I/O Blades Port Assignment

Configuration with Five 4-way Server Blades

Because a 4-way server blade occupies two slots in the blade server chassis, there are four connections for four Fibre Channel ports available for a 4-way server blade. To use these connections, two FC daughter boards must be installed on the 4-way server blade (see manual for the relevant server blade type).

The following figure illustrates the assignment of the FC pass-thru blades to the Fibre Channel ports of the server blades in a configuration with five 4-way server blades when two FC pass-thru blades and, in each 4-way server blade, two FC daughter boards are installed in the back of the server.
