Cable the node ports to the Top of Rack (ToR) switch ports for each Storage network.
The sample configuration demonstrates configuring the following node to switch ports. If you have used different ports than demonstrated below, see the
Switch resources for Storage services worksheet, which you completed with your network administrator for the correct port mappings.
NOTE:Ports 0 and 1 of the 4-port card are reserved for the cluster network with all
PowerStore T model appliances. If deploying a PowerStore 500T model appliance ports 2 and 3 of the 4-port card are reserved for connectivity to the 24 Drive 2.5-Inch NVMe (ENS24) expansion enclosures.
Table 1. Cable the switchesLists the Node and switch ports that are used to connect to each network in the sample configuration.
