Slots NET3 and NET4 on the back of the basic unit can be fitted with Fibre
Channel I/O blades. The Fibre Channel I/O blade in the NET3 slot is connected
to port A of the installed Fibre Channel daughter cards. The Fibre Channel I/O
blade in the NET4 slot is connected to port B of the installed Fibre Channel
daughter cards.

The installation of two FC switch blades enables redundant Fibre Channel con-
nections to be provided for the server blades.

CAUTION!

●

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 79

) or Ethernet pass-thru blades (see

page 90

) 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.
