Follow the steps in Table 10–1 to start the TruCluster Server hardware
installation procedure. You can save time by installing the Memory Channel
adapters, redundant network adapters (if applicable), and KZPSA-BB or
KZPBA-CB SCSI adapters all at the same time.
Follow the directions in the referenced documentation, or the steps in the
referenced tables for the particular SCSI host bus adapter, returning to the
appropriate table when you have completed the steps in the referenced table.
_____________________ Caution _____________________
Static electricity can damage modules and electronic components.
We recommend using a grounded antistatic wrist strap and a
grounded work surface when handling modules.
Table 10–1: Configuring TruCluster Server Hardware for Use with a PCI
SCSI Adapter
Step
Action Refer to:
1
Install the Memory Channel module(s),
cables, and hub(s) (if a hub is required).
Chapter 5
a
2
Install Ethernet or FDDI network
adapters.
User’s guide for the applicable
Ethernet or FDDI adapter,
and the user’s guide for the
applicable system
Install ATM adapters if using ATM. See the documentation that came
with the ATM adapter
3
Install a KZPSA-BB PCI SCSI adapter or
KZPBA-CB UltraSCSI adapter for each
shared SCSI bus in each member system:
—
Internally terminated host bus adapter
for radial connection to DWZZH
UltraSCSI hub:
Section 10.1.1 and Table 10–2
Externally terminated host bus adapter: Section 10.1.2 Table 10–3
a
If you install additional KZPSA-BB or KZPBA-CB SCSI adapters or an extra network adapter at this time,
delay testing the Memory Channel until you have installed all hardware.
10.1.1 Radial Installation of a KZPSA-BB or KZPBA-CB Using Internal
Termination
Use this method of cabling member systems and shared storage in a
TruCluster Server cluster if you are using a DWZZH UltraSCSI hub. You
must reserve at least one hub port for shared storage.
