Cabling One PowerEdge Cluster to a Dell|EMC CX3-10c Storage System
In this configuration, each server module attaches to the storage system using
CAT5e or CAT6 LAN cables with RJ45 connectors that attach to Gigabit
Ethernet daughter cards in the server modules and the Gigabit iSCSI SP
ports in the Dell|EMC storage system.
To connect two server modules (for example, module 4 and 5) to a storage
system in a direct-attached configuration:
1 Identify the server modules that you wish to configure in a direct-attached
configuration.
2 Locate the identification number for each server module selected in
step 1.
3 Match the server module identification numbers with the corresponding
port numbers on the Ethernet pass-through module.
4 Connect server module 4 to the storage system.
Connect a LAN cable from port-4 of pass-through module 1 to SP-A
a
port 1 iSCSI.
Connect a LAN cable from port-4 of pass-through module 2 to SP-B
b
port 0 iSCSI.
5 Connect server module 5 to the storage system.
Connect a LAN cable from port-5 of pass-through module 1 to SP-B
a
port 1 iSCSI.
Connect a LAN cable from port-5 of pass-through module 2 to SP-A
b
port 0 iSCSI.
Figure 2-2 shows an example of a direct-attached, two-node iSCSI cluster
configuration using redundant connections to server modules 5 and 6 in
