∙Recommend using network ports from different LOM port controllers for redundant active/standby Serviceguard site and heartbeat network configurations
Fibre Channel Connectivity:∙Each server blade must have at least 1 Mezzanine card for Fiber Channel connectivity
–If a server blade has 2 or more Fiber Channel Mezzanine cards, it is recommended that the primary and alternate Fiber Channel paths use different Mezzanine cards to prevent a Mezzanine card from being a single point of failure
Virtual Connect:∙Uplinks between Virtual Connect modules can be used for private cluster heartbeat networks between blade enclosures (note stacking links between adjacent VC Ethernet modules is internal)
–Note when using dedicated internal cluster heartbeat networks, it can be difficult to test cluster failover due to a loss of heartbeat as there is no physical LAN cable available to disconnect
∙The HP NC532m Dual Port 10GbE
∙Can use the 1Gb Ethernet Mezzanine or LOM with the HP BLc Virtual Connect
