board, LBB A, to the host bus adapter (HBA) on the top server node.
2. Using an optical Fibre Channel cable, connect the host port B of the top
board, LBB B, to the host bus adapter (HBA) on the top server node.
3. Using two CAT-5 E Ethernet cables, connect the Gigabit NIC ports from the
top server nodes to one set of aggregated ports on the network switch.
4. Using two CAT-5 E Ethernet cables, connect the Gigabit NIC ports from the
bottom server nodes to another set of aggregated ports on the network
switch.
5. Using a CAT-5 E Ethernet crossover Ethernet cable, connect the NIC2 ports
of both servers.
6. Using the electrical cables, plug the two server nodes into separate power
circuits for power redundancy.
7. Using the electrical cables, plug the two array power supplies into separate
power circuits for power redundancy.
