HP Virtual Connect 8Gb 20-port Fibre Channel Module for c-Class BladeSystem - Manual (Page 228)

Virtual Connect modules 228
o Failed indicates that one or more modules are not connected properly. Check the cable
connections.
• Redundancy Status indicates whether all VC-Enet modules would remain fully interconnected if a
module or external cable was removed or had failed. Horizontally-adjacent modules are considered to
have OK redundancy status because of the reliability of their internal link.
o OK indicates that redundant/reliable connections exist.
o Degraded indicates that additional stacking cables should be connected to provide full redundancy.
The table on this screen lists all of the Ethernet stacking links found within the Virtual Connect domain. Each
row of the table identifies the link speed and the connections on both sides of the link, identified by the
module and port number.
Port X7 and X8 can connect to the internal link between horizontally-adjacent HP VC Flex-10 Enet and HP VC
FlexFabric 10Gb/24-Port modules.
Ports X11, X12, X13, and X14 connect to the internal link between horizontally-adjacent HP VC
Flex-10/10D Modules.
Ports X9 and X10 connect to the internal link between horizontally-adjacent HP VC FlexFabric-20/40 F8
Modules.
NOTE: Virtual Connect does not support stacking for FC modules, so each VC-FC module or
FlexFabric module requires uplink connections to the external FC SAN environment.
For more information on connecting stacking links, and stacking links in a multi-enclosure environment, see
the HP Virtual Connect for c-Class BladeSystem Setup and Installation Guide on the HP website
