BladeCluster Solution Manual

ServerNet Switch and Processor Switch Cable Connections for
BladeCluster/Mixed System Solution Topology
Table 11 (page 52) shows the port connections between the ServerNet switches (for BladeSystem
nodes) and the p-switches (for NS16000 series nodes) and the shared ACH in the
BladeCluster/Mixed System Solution topology. One pair of ACHs is installed for each BladeCluster
and supports up to eight nodes. One ACH supports the X fabric, and the other ACH supports the
Y fabric. The numbering of the ports on each ACH is identical.
