NonStop Blade Element
However, to help reduce the complexity of cable connections, HP recommends that
you use a physically sequential order of slots for fiber-optic cable connections on the
LSU and that you not randomly mix the LSU slots.
Cable connections to the LSU has no bearing on NonStop Blade Complex number, but
HP also recommends you connect NonStop Blade Elements A to the NonStop Blade
Element A connection on the LSU. Optic cable connections to the p-switch PICs
determine the identification numbers of each NonStop Blade Complex. For more
information, see ServerNet Fabric I/O on page 4-9.
This simplified example shows connections from a NonStop Blade Element to the LSU
and to the p-switch:
