Owners Manual
Dell Integrated Systems for Oracle Business Analytics (DISOBA) – Owner’s Guide 1.0
Using one of the Fibre Channel switches as an example, the following figure shows the
pre-defined port connectivity configuration between 6510 and the database nodes, and
between 6510 and the DAAD storage array nodes. The two database nodes are referred to
as DB-N1 and DB-N2, and the two DAAD storage array nodes are referred to as DAAD1
and DAAD2. Port range 0-7 are used for connecting to the DAAD storage array nodes and
port range 8-15 are used to connect to the database nodes. The remainder of the ports,
from 16 through 47, are unconfigured.
Brocade 6510 Fibre Channel Switch Port Connectivity
Each of the 6510 switches is configured with port-based zoning. As part of this, each
initiator port to the database nodes is in its own zone with all the ports from the DAAD
storage array. Thus, in the DISOD solution each 6510 is pre-configured with eight zones,
four in that are reserved for future database node expansion.
2.4.3 Dell Networking S60 Switch
The Dell Networking S60 1GbE switch is used as the management switch. The ports on the
switch are pre-configured and pre-cabled to provide secure and isolated access to the
hardware components in the DISOD solution rack. This dedicated management switch
also ensures the segregation of the public and the private rack network traffic.
For more configuration details refer to S60 Switch Configurations.
2.5 Management Server (R320)
Dell PowerEdge R320 server is setup as the management server that allows remote
management and monitoring of all the DISOD hardware components. Table 3 shows all
the components within the management server.
