Configuration Information
Step 2 - Choose Host Adapter
Host adapters can be ordered separately to be installed in the field or they can be factory configured into controller nodes. Host adapter cards provide the array with additional FC ports or with 10Gb/sec iSCSI/FCoE ports. The additional FC ports can be used for connection to hosts or used to connect to other HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems in a Remote Copy relationship. The iSCSI/FCoE ports permit host connection in iSCSI and FCoE environments.

|
|
| Used in the Storage Base products (QR482A, QR483A, and QR485A) and the |
|
| |||||||
|
|
| Upgrade Node Pair (QR484A). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| ||
|
|
| Because the Storage Base products and the Upgrade Node Pair include |
|
| |||||||
|
|
| ports, the host adapter cards are optional. |
|
|
|
|
|
| |||
|
|
| QR486A and QR487A include one adapter card each. Adapters must be purchased |
|
| |||||||
|
|
| in pairs. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The QR486A includes (4) 8 Gb/s shortwave FC SFPs and the QR487A includes (2) 10 |
| ||||||||
|
|
| Gb/s SFPs. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| Each node in a node pair (a node pair is composed of the two controller nodes in a |
|
| |||||||
|
|
| single 2U enclosure) must have the same number and type of adapters. FC and |
|
| |||||||
|
|
| iSCSI/FCoE adapters may not be intermixed in a node pair. |
|
|
|
| |||||
|
|
| The 4 ports of the FC adapter can be individually configured to connect to a host or |
| ||||||||
|
|
| to a remote array in an RC configuration. |
|
|
|
|
|
| |||
|
|
| The two ports of the iSCSI/FCoE adapter can be individually configured by the user |
|
| |||||||
|
|
| as iSCSI or FCoE. |

NOTE: If the configuration includes Remote Copy over Fibre Channel it is recommended that optional Fiber Channel HBAs are purchased as the built in ports will not offer sufficient connectivity.
