Understanding the Network Requirements
■
NET0 on the first storage controller (installed in slot 25 in the rack)
■
NET1 on the second storage controller (installed in slot 26 in the rack)
■
1 dual-port QDR InfiniBand Host Channel Adapter for connection to the InfiniBand private
network
■
1 Ethernet port (NET0) for Oracle ILOM remote management using sideband management.
The dedicate Oracle ILOM port is not used due to sideband.
The Cisco Catalyst 4948 Ethernet switch supplied with Oracle SuperCluster T5-8 is minimally
configured during installation. The minimal configuration disables IP routing, and sets the
following:
■
Host name
■
IP address
■
Subnet mask
■
Default gateway
■
Domain name
■
Domain Name Server
■
NTP server
■
Time
■
Time zone
Additional configuration, such as defining multiple virtual local area networks (VLANs) or
enabling routing, might be required for the switch to operate properly in your environment and
is beyond the scope of the installation service. If additional configuration is needed, then your
network administrator must perform the necessary configuration steps during installation of
Oracle SuperCluster T5-8.
To deploy Oracle SuperCluster T5-8, ensure that you meet the minimum network requirements.
There are three networks for Oracle SuperCluster T5-8. Each network must be on a distinct and
separate subnet from the others. The network descriptions are as follows:
■
Management network
– This required network connects to your existing management
network, and is used for administrative work for all components of Oracle SuperCluster
T5-8. It connects the servers, Oracle ILOM, and switches connected to the Ethernet switch
in the rack. There is one uplink from the Ethernet switch in the rack to your existing
management network.
Note -
Network connectivity to the PDUs is only required if the electric current will be
monitored remotely.
