IBM FAStT200 and FAStT200 HA Storage Servers Installation and User’s Guide
Interface ports and switches
The following illustration shows the ports and switches on the back of the storage
server.
RAID controller
Each RAID controller contains several connectors and LEDs. Each controller
has one host port and one expansion port for connecting the storage server to
hosts or expansion units. You first insert GBICs into the ports and then
connect the Fibre Channel cables.
Host port
The host port is used to connect a Fibre Channel cable from the host system.
You first insert a GBIC into the port and then connect a Fibre Channel cable.
Ethernet port
The Ethernet port is for an RJ-45 10 BASE-T or 100 BASE-T Ethernet
connection. Use the Ethernet connection to directly manage storage
subsystems.
Expansion port
The expansion port is used to connect additional expansion units to the RAID
controllers. You first insert a GBIC into the port and then connect a Fibre
Channel cable.
RS-232 port
The RS-232 port is a TJ-6 modular jack and is used for an RS-232 serial
connection. The RS-232 port is used by service personnel to perform
diagnostic operations on the RAID controllers. An RS-232 cable comes with
the storage server.
