Cabling a Cluster to a Dell | EMC Storage System
Each cluster node attaches to the storage system using two fiber optic cables with duplex LC multimode connectors that
attach to the HBAs in the cluster nodes and the SP ports in the Dell | EMC storage system. These connectors consist of two
individual fibre optic connectors with indexed tabs that must be aligned properly into the HBAs and SP ports.
NOTICE: Do not remove the connector covers until you are ready to insert the connectors into the system.
The duplex LC multimode connectors attach to the SP ports (SP-A and SP-B) on the back of the storage system.
Cabling a Two-Node Cluster to a CX200 or CX400 Storage System
1. Connect cluster node 1 to the storage system.
a. Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA0 to SP-B port FE 0 (or front-end port A [FE A]).
b. Install a cable from cluster node 1 HBA1 to SP-A port FE 0 (or FE A).
2. Connect cluster node 2 to the storage system.
a. Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA0 to SP-B port FE 1 (or FE B).
b. Install a cable from cluster node 2 HBA1 to SP-A port FE 1 (or FE B).
Figure 4-2 and Figure 4-3 illustrate how to cable a two-node direct-attached cluster to a CX200 and CX400 storage system,
respectively.
NOTE: The cables are connected to the storage processor ports in sequential order for illustrative purposes. While the
available ports in your storage system may vary, HBA0 and HBA1 must be connected to SP-A and SP-B, respectively.
