Fujitsu V3.1 instruction

1 Introduction

The Virtual-IO Manager can only manage BX400 chassis with S1 management blades (MMB S1) that are assembled with the fol- lowing:

•In fabric 1:

oLAN connection blades (PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1 Gb 36/8+2 (SB11), PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1 Gb 36/12 (SB11A), PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1 Gb 18/6 (SB6), or PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 10 Gb 18/8 (SBAX2)) in switch mode or IBP mode, or

oLAN pass thru connection blades (PY CB Eth Pass Thru 10 Gb 18/18)

•In fabric 2:

oLAN connection blades (PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1 Gb 36/8+2, PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1 Gb 36/12, PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1 Gb 18/6, or PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 10 Gb 18/8) in switch mode or IBP mode,

oLAN pass thru connection blades (PY CB Eth Pass Thru 10 Gb 18/18),

oFC switch blades of the type Brocade 5450, or

oFC pass thru connection blades (PY CB FC Pass Thru 8 Gb 18/18)

•In fabric 3: same as fabric 2

The LAN connection blades in fabric 3 must run in the same mode. However, only one connection blade can be inserted in fabric 3.

You must not switch the mode of a LAN connection blade if you are using the Virtual-IO Manager to manage the BX400 chassis.
