HP 3PAR F-Class, T-Class, StoreServ 10000 Storage Troubleshooting Guide (QL226-96953, May 2013)
As shown in Figure 53 (page 48), a controller node contains nine PCI slots. The following slots
connect PCI adapters such as quad-port Fibre Channel Adapters and Converged Network Adapters
(CNA). Each controller node features a main administrative Ethernet port (E0), Remote Copy Ethernet
port (RCIP) (E1), and a console maintenance port (S0).
Figure 53 Controller Node PCI Slots and Port Numbering
Each CNA in a PCI slot features two iSCSI/FCoE ports and each Fibre Channel adapter in a PCI
slot offers four ports. Each PCI adapter is identifiable by its accompanying PCI slot number position.
• In dual-port adapters, the ports are labeled port 1 and port 2 in ascending order away from
the adapter handle.
• In quad-port Fibre Channel adapters, the ports are numbered port 1, port 2, port 3, and port
4 in ascending order away from the adapter handle.
Drive Chassis Numbering
Depending on the specific configuration, a 10400 system may include up to 24 drive chassis and
the 10800 system may hold up to 48 drive chassis.
Each drive chassis contains ten drive magazine slots and each slot can accommodate a single
drive magazine holding four disks for a total of 40 hard drives.
Numbers for drive chassis are assigned:
• Beginning with 0
• From bottom to top
Drive chassis are placed above the 10400 node chassis and numbered according to their position
in relation to the controller node chassis as shown in Figure 15 (page 49) and Figure 55 (page 50).
No drive chassis are permitted in the 10800 cabinet.
