Technical data

For a Fibre Channel configuration, connect the HSG60 or HSG80
controllers to the switches. You want the HSG60 or HSG80 to recognize
the connections to the systems when the systems are powered on.
8. Prepare the member systems by installing:
• Additional Ethernet or Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network
adapters for client networks.
• SCSI bus adapters. Ensure that adapter terminators are set
correctly. Connect the systems to the shared SCSI bus. (See
Chapter 4 or Chapter 9.)
• The KGPSA host bus adapter for Fibre Channel configurations.
Ensure that the KGPSA is operating in the correct mode (
FABRIC or
LOOP). Connect the KGPSA to the switch. (See Chapter 6.)
• Memory Channel adapters. Ensure that jumpers are set correctly.
(See Chapter 5.)
9. Connect the Memory Channel adapters to each other or to the Memory
Channel hub as appropriate. (See Chapter 5.)
10. Turn on the Memory Channel hubs and storage shelves, then turn on
the member systems.
11. Install the firmware, set SCSI IDs, and enable fast bus speed as
necessary. (See Chapter 4 and Chapter 9.)
12. Display configuration information for each member system, and
ensure that all shared disks are seen at the same device number. (See
Chapter 4, Chapter 6, or Chapter 9.)
