The IOAM enclosure is part of some NonStop i BladeSystem configurations. The IOAM enclosure uses Gigabit Ethernet 4-port ServerNet adapters (G4SAs) for networking connectivity and Fibre Channel ServerNet adapters (FCSAs) for Fibre Channel connectivity between the system and Fibre Channel disk modules (FCDMs), ESS, and Fibre Channel tape. More information Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure) (page 73) IOAM Enclosure Group-Module-Slot Numbering (page 77) System Installation Specifications for NonStop i BladeSystems (page 40) G6SE Enclosure The G6SE enclosure is part of some NonStop i configurations. The G6SE is a 6 port Ethernet solution. For more information about the G6SE, refer to the G6SE Ethernet Connectivity Guide for NonStop BladeSystems. Fibre Channel Disk Module (FCDM) The Fibre Channel disk module (FCDM) is a rack-mounted enclosure that can only be used with NonStop i BladeSystems that have IOAM enclosures. The FCDM connects to an FCSA in an IOAM enclosure. You can daisy-chain together up to four FCDMs with 4 drives in each one. For more information about FCDMs, refer to Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure) (page 73). Maintenance Switch The ProCurve maintenance switch provides the communication between the NonStop i BladeSystem through the Onboard Administrator, c7000 enclosure interconnect Ethernet switch, IP, Storage, and Telco CLIMs, G6SE enclosures, IOAM enclosures, the optional UPS, and the system consoles running OSM. The NonStop i BladeSystem requires multiple connections to the maintenance switch. Refer to the NonStop i BladeSystem Hardware Installation Manual for these connections. System Console A system console is a Windows Server purchased from Hewlett Packard Enterprise that runs maintenance and diagnostic software for NonStop i BladeSystems. When supplied with a new NonStop i BladeSystem, system consoles have factory-installed Hewlett Packard Enterprise and third-party software for managing the system. You can install software upgrades from the NonStop System Console Installer DVD. Two system consoles, a primary and a backup, are required to manage NonStop i BladeSystems. 24 NonStop i BladeSystems Overview

25 Enterprise Storage System (Optional) An Enterprise Storage System (ESS) is a collection of magnetic disks, their controllers, and a disk cache in one or more standalone racks. ESS connects to the NonStop i BladeSystem via the Storage CLIM's Fibre Channel HBA ports (direct connect), Fibre Channel ports on the IOAM enclosures (direct connect), or through a separate storage area network (SAN) using a Fibre Channel SAN switch (switched connect). For more information about these connection types, see your service provider. NOTE: The Fibre Channel SAN switch power cords might not be compatible with the rack PDU. Contact your service provider to order replacement power cords if needed. Cables and switches vary, depending on whether the connection is direct, switched, or a combination: Connection Direct connect Switched Combination of direct and switched Cables 2 Fibre Channel ports on IOAM (LC-LC) 2 Fibre Channel HBA interfaces on Storage CLIM (LC-MMF) 4 Fibre Channel ports (LC-LC) 4 Fibre Channel HBA interfaces on Storage CLIM (LC-MMF) 2 Fibre Channel ports for each direct connection Fibre Channel Switches 0 0 or more or more 4 Fibre Channel ports for each switched connection Customer must order the FC HBA interfaces on the Storage CLIM. For fault tolerance, the primary and backup paths to an ESS logical device (LDEV) must go through different Fibre Channel switches. Some storage area procedures, such as reconfiguration, can cause the affected switches to pause. If the pause is long enough, I/O failure occurs on all paths connected to that switch. If both the primary and the backup paths are connected to the same switch, the LDEV goes down. Refer to the documentation that accompanies the ESS. NonStop S-series I/O Enclosures (Optional) Up to four NonStop S-series I/O enclosures (Groups -4) can be connected to the ServerNet switches in a c7000 enclosure (Group 00 only). Refer to Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure) (page 73). NonStop i BladeSystem Standard and Optional Hardware 25

26 NonStop i BladeSystems Platform Configurations NonStop i BladeSystems support platform configuration options via OSM Low-Level Link. All new commercial and carrier grade BladeSystems arrive pre-configured with one of these options: Configuration Option Platform Configuration Platform Configuration 0 Description This option is for NB50000c, NB54000c, and NB56000c and supports: Processors that are configured sequentially: 0 7 in enclosure in enclosure 0 This option is the Flex Processor Bay Configuration which is supported on all NonStop BladeSystems except NB50000c and NB50000c-cg and which: Offers two choices for processor numbering: Sequential numbering Processors are numbered 0 through 7 in enclosure 00 and 8 through 5 in enclosure 0 Even/odd numbering Alternately, processors are numbered starting with 0 in enclosure 00 and in enclosure 0 and continue alternating between the two enclosures in an even/odd manner as shown in Figure 2 (page 27). NOTE: Even/odd numbering requires a second c7000 enclosure. If you want to add a second c7000 enclosure, ask your service provider to refer to the Adding a c7000 Enclosure in a NonStop BladeSystem service procedure. TIP: The platform configuration is pre-configured on a new system. However, if you want to change a NB54000c or NB56000c platform configuration to or from the Flex Processor Bay Configuration or change processor numbering from even/odd to sequential or vice-versa, ask your service provider to refer to the Changing a NonStop BladeSystem NB54000c, NB54000c-cg or NB56000c, NB56000c-cg to or from Flex Processor Bay Configuration service procedure. Platform Configuration 9 This option is for NonStop S-series I/O enclosure connections to NB50000c, NB54000c, and NB56000c and supports: Processors that are configured sequentially: 0 7 in enclosure in enclosure 0 Platform configuration 9 is the only configuration option that supports connections to NonStop S-series I/O enclosures. This configuration option does not support even/odd processor numbering. 26 NonStop i BladeSystems Overview

28 2 Managing and Locating NonStop i BladeSystem Components This chapter describes the management tools for the NonStop i BladeSystem, how to locate and identify system components, power regulator settings, default naming conventions, and the group-module-slot numbering for system components. Management Tools for NonStop i BladeSystems NOTE: For information about changing the default passwords for NonStop i BladeSystem components and associated software, refer to Changing Customer Passwords (page 30). This subsection describes the management tools available on your NonStop BladeSystem. OSM Package The HPE Open System Management (OSM) product is the required system management tool for NonStop i BladeSystems. There are several OSM tools and online help for managing the systems. For more information, refer to the OSM Configuration Guide, the help within the OSM tool, or the OSM Service Connection User's Guide. For more information on using OSM tools to manage the NonStop Maintenance LAN and system console configurations, have your service provider refer to the Nonstop Dedicated Service LAN Installation and Configuration Guide. Onboard Administrator (OA) and Integrated Lights Out (ilo) The OA is the enclosure's management, processor, subsystem, and firmware base and supports the c7000 enclosure and NonStop i Server Blades. The OA software is integrated with OSM and the Integrated Lights Out (ilo) management interface. The ilo enables you to perform activities on the system from a remote location and provides anytime-access to system management information such as hardware health, event logs, and configuration to troubleshoot the server blades. The OA can generate a full inventory, status and configuration report of all the components the OA supports; this is the so called SHOW ALL report. For details on how to generate this report, refer to: Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Subsystem The Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) subsystem provides a configuration and management interface for I/O on NonStop i BladeSystems. The CIP subsystem has several tools for monitoring and managing the subsystem. For more information about these tools and the CIP subsystem, refer to the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual. Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) Subsystem The Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) also provides monitoring and management of the CIP subsystem on the NonStop i BladeSystems. See the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual for more information about using these two subsystems. 28 Managing and Locating NonStop i BladeSystem Components

29 Technical Document for NonStop i BladeSystems Each new system includes a detailed Technical Document that serves as the connection map for the system and which describes: Rack included with the system and each enclosure installed in the rack Rack U location at the bottom edge of each enclosure Each cable with source, destination, connector type, and cable part number TIP: It is important to retain all NonStop i BladeSystem records in an Installation Document Packet, including the Technical Document for your system and any configurations forms. To add CLIM configuration forms to your Installation Document Packet, have your service provider copy the forms from the CLuster I/O Module (CLIM) Installation and Configuration Manual. Power Regulator for NonStop i BladeSystems NOTE: Power Regulator is not supported on NB50000c or NB50000c-cg. This feature requires: OSM server SPR T0682ACV or later on an NB54000c or NB54000c-cg running J06.4 and later RVUs. OSM server SPR T0682ADF or later on an NB56000c or NB56000c-cg running J06.6 and later RVUs. Power Regulator manages power modes. Power Regulator must be enabled via the OSM Service Connection's Enable/Disable Blade Power Regulator Management action for the system. Once enabled, these Power Regulator modes are available: Power Regulator Modes Static High Performance Mode (default) Dynamic Power Savings Mode Description In Static High Performance Mode, the CPU runs at the maximum performance/power consumption supported by your NonStop configuration. This mode ensures maximum performance, but does not provide any power savings. This is the default mode for all systems, including shipped systems. In Dynamic Power Savings Mode, IPUs 2 run at maximum power/performance until an IPU idles. Once the IPU idles (and as long as it does not need to off-load work from other IPUs) it moves to the Itanium power saving state until a task needs to run on it, whereupon the IPU executes instructions at maximum power/performance again. Static Low Power Mode CPU is the logical processor that consists of a set of one or more IPUs. 2 An IPU (Instruction Processing Unit) is a microprocessor core. In Static Low Power Mode, the CPU is set to a lower power state. This state saves power by having the CPU operate at a lower frequency, with resulting lower performance capacity. The performance impact is workload-dependent. NOTE: The OS Control Power Regulator mode is not supported on NonStop i systems. If the OS Control Power Regulator Mode is selected, the command fails and the existing power regulator setting is left unchanged. For information on using Power Regulator, refer to HPE SIM for NonStop Manageability and to NonStop Firmware Matrices for information on the Server Firmware bundle (system firmware only).

30 Changing Customer Passwords NonStop i BladeSystems are shipped with default user names and default passwords for the Administrator for certain components and software. Once the system is set up, you should change these passwords to your own passwords. For instructions, refer your service provider to the NonStop i BladeSystem Hardware Installation Manual. Default Naming Conventions for NonStop i BladeSystem Resources With a few exceptions, default naming conventions are not necessary for system resources. However, default naming conventions have been preconfigured for the following resources to simplify initial configuration files and automatic generation of these resources. NOTE: The naming conventions for a CLIM are based on the group, module, slot, port, fiber values of the CLIM s X attachment point. Type of Object Naming Convention Example Description IB CLuster I/O Module (CLIM) Bgroup module slot port fiber B IB CLIM which has the X attachment point to the ServerNet switch port at group 00, module 2, slot 5, port 3, fiber 4 IP CLuster I/O Module (CLIM) Ngroup module slot port fiber N IP CLIM which has the X attachment point to the ServerNet switch port at group 00, module 2, slot 5, port 3, fiber 2 Storage CLIM Sgroup module slot port fiber S Storage CLIM which has the X attachment point to the ServerNet switch port at group 00, module 2, slot 5, port 3, fiber 3 Telco CLIM Ogroup module slot port fiber O Telco CLIM which has the X attachment point to the ServerNet switch port at group 00, module 2, slot 5, port 3, fiber 4 SAS disk volume $SASnumber $SAS20 Twentieth SAS disk volume in the system ESS disk volume $ESSnumber $ESS20 Twentieth ESS disk drive in the system Fiber Channel disk drive $FCnumber $FC0 Tenth Fibre Channel disk drive in the system Tape drive $TAPEnumber $TAPE0 First tape drive in the system Maintenance CIPSAM process $ZTCPnumber $ZTCP0 First maintenance CIPSAM process for the system Maintenance provider ZTCPnumber ZTCP0 First maintenance provider for the system, associated with the CIPSAM process $ZTCP0 Maintenance CIPSAM process $ZTCPnumber $ZTCP Second maintenance CIPSAM process for the system 30 Managing and Locating NonStop i BladeSystem Components

For a SAS disk, the LUN number is calculated as base LUN + offset. base LUN is the base LUN number for the SAS enclosure. Its value can be 00, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, or 900, and should be numbered sequentially for each of the SAS enclosures attached to the same CLIM. offset is the bay (slot) number of the disk in the SAS enclosure. For an ESS disk, the LUN number is calculated as base LUN + offset. base LUN is the base LUN number for the ESS port. Its value can be 000, 500, 2000, 2500, 3000, 3500, 4000, or 4500, and should be numbered sequentially for each of the ESS ports attached to the same CLIM. offset is the LUN number of the ESS LUN. Possible Values of Disk and Tape LUNs 3

32 For a physical Fibre Channel tape, the value of LUN number can be, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, and should be numbered sequentially for each of the physical tapes attached to the same CLIM. For a VTS tape, the LUN number is calculated as base LUN + offset. base LUN is the base LUN number for the VTS port. Its value can be 5000, 500, 5020, 5030, 5040, 5050, 5060, 5070, 5080, or 5090, and should be numbered sequentially for each of the VTS ports attached to the same CLIM. offset is the LUN number of the VTS LUN. NonStop i BladeSystem Component Location and Identification Terminology These are terms used in locating and describing components: Term Rack Rack Offset Group Module Slot (or Bay or Position) Port Fiber Group-Module-Slot (GMS) Group-Module-Slot-Bay (GMSB) Group-Module-Slot-Port (GMSP) Group-Module-Slot-Port-Fiber (GMSPF) NonStop Server Blade Definition Structure where rackmountable components are assembled. The rack uses this naming convention: system-name-racknumber The physical location of components installed in a rack, measured in U values numbered to 42, with U at the bottom of the rack. A U is.75 inches (44 millimeters). A subset of a system that contains one or more modules. A group does not necessarily correspond to a single physical object, such as an enclosure. A subset of a group that is usually contained in an enclosure. A module contains one or more slots (or bays). A module can consist of components sharing a common interconnect, such as a backplane, or it can be a logical grouping of components performing a particular function. A subset of a module that is the logical or physical location of a component within that module. A connector to which a cable can be attached and which transmits and receives data. Number (one to four) of the fiber pair (LC connector) within an MTP-LC fiber cable. An MTP-LC fiber cable has a single MTP connector on one end and four LC connectors, each containing a pair of fibers, at the other end. The MTP connector connects to the ServerNet switch in the c7000 enclosure and the LC connectors connect to the CLIM A notation method used by hardware and software in NonStop i BladeSystems for organizing and identifying the location of certain hardware components. A server blade that provides processing and ServerNet connections. 32 Managing and Locating NonStop i BladeSystem Components

33 On NonStop i BladeSystems, locations of the modular components are identified by: Physical location: Rack number Rack offset Logical location: group, module, and slot (GMS) notation as defined by their position on the ServerNet rather than the physical location OSM uses GMS notation in many places, including the Tree view and Attributes window, and it uses rack and offset information to create displays of the server and its components. Rack and Offset Physical Location Rack name and rack offset identify the physical location of components in a NonStop i BladeSystem. The rack name is located on an external label affixed to the rack, which includes the system name plus a 2-digit rack number. Rack offset is labeled on the rails in each side of the rack. These rails are measured vertically in units called U, with one U measuring.75 inches (44 millimeters). The rack is 42U with U located at the bottom and 42U at the top. The rack offset is the lowest number on the rack that the component occupies. ServerNet Switch Group-Module-Slot Numbering Group (00-0): Group 00 is the first c7000 processor enclosure containing logical sequential processors 0-7 or even processors 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 0, 2, and 4. Group 0 is the second c7000 processor enclosure containing logical sequential processors 8-5 or odd processors, 3, 5, 7, 9,, 3, and 5. Module (2-3): Module 2 is the X fabric. Module 3 is the Y fabric. Slot (5 or 7): Slot 5 contains the double-wide ServerNet switch for the X fabric. Slot 7 contains the double-wide ServerNet switch for the Y fabric. NOTE: There are two types of c7000 ServerNet switches: Standard I/O and High I/O. For more information and illustrations of the ServerNet switch ports, refer to I/O Connections (Standard and High I/O ServerNet Switch Configurations) (page 83). Port (-8): Ports through 2 support the inter-enclosure links. Port is marked GA. Port 2 is marked GB. Ports 3 through 8 support the I/O links (IP CLIM, Storage CLIM, Telco CLIM, IB CLIM, IOAM, or NonStop S-series I/O enclosures). If NonStop S-series I/O enclosures are present, CLIMs cannot be connected to port 3 of the ServerNet switches in a c7000 enclosure. NonStop i BladeSystem Component Location and Identification 33

34 NOTE: IOAMs must use Ports 4 through 7. These ports support 4-way IOAM links. For information on G6SE connections to the ServerNet switch, refer to the G6SE Ethernet Connectivity Guide for NonStop BladeSystems. Ports 9 and 0 support the cross links between two ServerNet switches in the same enclosure. Ports and 2 support the links to a cluster switch. SH on Port stands for short haul. LH on Port 2 stands for long haul. Ports 3 through 8 are only supported if your BladeSystem participates in a BladeCluster and uses the BladeCluster ServerNet switch.

36 3 Site Preparation Guidelines NB50000c, NB54000c, and NB56000c This section describes power, environmental, and space considerations for your site. Rack Power and I/O Cable Entry Depending on the rack order and the routing of the AC power feeds at the site, AC power cords for the PDUs exit either: Top: Power and I/O cables are routed from above the rack. Bottom: Power and I/O cables are routed from below the rack. Emergency Power-Off Switches Emergency power off (EPO) switches are required by local codes or other applicable regulations when computer equipment contains batteries capable of supplying more than 750 volt-amperes (VA) for more that five minutes. Systems that have these batteries also have internal EPO hardware for connection to a site EPO switch or relay. In an emergency, activating the EPO switch or relay removes power from all electrical equipment in the computer room (except that used for lighting and fire-related sensors and alarms). EPO Requirement for NonStop BladeSystems NonStop i BladeSystems without an optional UPS (such as an R2000/3 and R5000 UPS) installed in the modular rack do not contain batteries capable of supplying more than 750 volt-amperes (VA) for more that five minutes, so they do not require connection to a site EPO switch. EPO Requirement for R5000 UPS NOTE: For a single-phase power configuration, two R5000 UPS's are required. The rack-mounted R5000 UPS is supported for a single-phase power configuration. Each UPS contains batteries, has an EPO circuit, and can be optionally installed in a rack. For site EPO switches or relays, consult your Hewlett Packard Enterprise site preparation specialist or electrical engineer regarding requirements. If an EPO switch or relay connector is required for your site, contact your Hewlett Packard Enterprise representative or refer to the appropriate manual in UPS and ERM (Optional) (page 37). EPO Requirement for R2000/3 UPS The rack-mounted R2000/3, UPS is supported for a three-phase power configuration. This UPS contains batteries, has a remote EPO (REPO) port, and can be optionally installed in a rack. For site EPO switches or relays, consult your Hewlett Packard Enterprise site preparation specialist or electrical engineer regarding requirements. If an EPO switch or relay connector is required for your site, contact your Hewlett Packard Enterprise representative or refer to the HPE 3 Phase UPS User Guide for connectors and wiring for the R2000/3 UPS. For information about the R2000/3 UPS's management module, refer to the HPE UPS Management Module User Guide. 36 Site Preparation Guidelines NB50000c, NB54000c, and NB56000c

37 Electrical Power and Grounding Quality Proper design and installation of a power distribution system for a NonStop i BladeSystem requires specialized skills, knowledge, and understanding of appropriate electrical codes and the limitations of the power systems for computer and data processing equipment. For power and grounding specifications, refer to Enclosure AC Input (page 63). Power Quality This equipment is designed to operate reliably over a wide range of voltages and frequencies, described in Enclosure AC Input (page 63). Damage can occur if ranges are exceeded and severe electrical disturbances can exceed the design specifications of the equipment. Common sources of such disturbances are: Fluctuations occurring within the facility s distribution system Utility service low-voltage conditions (such as sags or brownouts) Wide and rapid variations in input voltage levels or input power frequency Electrical storms or large inductive sources (such as motors and welders) Faults in the distribution system wiring (such as loose connections) To protect the system from electrical disturbances, use a dedicated power distribution system, power conditioning equipment, and lightning arresters on power cables. For assistance, consult with your HP site preparation specialist or power engineer. Grounding Systems The site building must provide a power distribution safety ground/protective earth for each AC service entrance to all NonStop i BladeSystem equipment. This safety grounding system must comply with local codes and any other applicable regulations for the installation locale. For proper grounding/protective earth connection, consult with your Hewlett Packard Enterprise site preparation specialist or power engineer. Power Consumption To calculate the total power consumption for the hardware installed in the rack, refer to Enclosure Power Loads (page 64). UPS and ERM (Optional) A rack-mounted uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is optional but recommended to provide power during power failures when a site UPS is not available. For information on using OSM to manage a site UPS, refer to the OSM Configuration Guide. HPE supports these rack-mounted UPS modules which support up to two HPE ERMs per UPS; no mixing of UPS and ERM types.

38 UPS and ERM Checklist Verify: UPS s and ERMs are in the lowest portion of the system to avoid tipping and stability issues. No more than two HPE ERMs are used per UPS; no mixing of UPS or ERM types. The manufacturing default setting ride-through time for the optional HPE-supported UPS has been changed to an appropriate value for the system. Service providers can refer to the NonStop i BladeSystem Hardware Installation Manual for these instructions Your UPS configuration is supported. See UPS and Data Center Power Configurations (page 88). Cooling and Humidity Control Weight Flooring Cooling airflow through each enclosure in the system is front-to-back. Because of high heat densities and hot spots, an accurate assessment of air flow around and through the system equipment and specialized cooling design is essential for reliable system operation. For an airflow assessment, consult with your Hewlett Packard Enterprise cooling consultant or your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) engineer. NOTE: Failure of site cooling with the system continuing to run can cause rapid heat buildup and excessive temperatures within the hardware. Excessive internal temperatures can result in full or partial system shutdown. Ensure that the site s cooling system remains fully operational when the system is running. Use the Heat Dissipation Specifications and Worksheet NB50000c, NB54000c, and NB56000c (page 74) to calculate the total heat dissipation for the hardware installed in each rack. For air temperature levels at the site, refer to Operating Temperature, Humidity, and Altitude (page 75). Total weight must be calculated based on what is in the specific rack, as described in Rack and Enclosure Weights With Worksheet (page 70). NonStop i BladeSystems can be installed either on the site s floor with the cables entering from above the equipment or on raised flooring with power and I/O cables entering from underneath. Because cooling airflow through each enclosure in the racks is front-to-back, raised flooring is not required for system cooling. The site floor structure and any raised flooring (if used) must be able to support the weight of the installed system, individual racks, and enclosures as they are moved into position. To determine the total weight of the installation, refer to Rack and Enclosure Weights With Worksheet (page 70). For your site s floor system, consult with your HPE site preparation specialist or an appropriate floor system engineer. If raised flooring is to be used, the rack is optimized for placement on 24-inch floor panels. 38 Site Preparation Guidelines NB50000c, NB54000c, and NB56000c

39 Dust and Pollution Control NonStop i BladeSystems do not have air filters. Any computer equipment can be adversely affected by dust and microscopic particles in the site environment. Airborne dust can blanket electronic components on printed circuit boards, inhibiting cooling airflow and causing premature failure from excess heat, humidity, or both. Metallically conductive particles can short circuit electronic components. Tape drives and some other mechanical devices can experience failures resulting from airborne abrasive particles. For recommendations to keep the site as free of dust and pollution as possible, consult with your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) engineer or your site preparation specialist. Zinc Particulates Over time, fine whiskers of pure metal can form on electroplated zinc, cadmium, or tin surfaces such as aged raised flooring panels and supports. If these whiskers are disturbed, they can break off and become airborne, possibly causing computer failures or operational interruptions. This metallic particulate contamination is a relatively rare but possible threat. Kits are available to test for metallic particulate contamination, or you can request that your site preparation specialist or HVAC engineer test the site for contamination before installing any electronic equipment. Space for Receiving and Unpacking a NonStop i BladeSystem WARNING! A fully populated rack is unstable when moving down the unloading ramp from its shipping pallet. A falling rack can cause serious or fatal personal injury. Ensure: There is adequate space to receive and unpack the system from shipping cartons and pallets and to remove equipment using supplied ramps. For physical dimensions of the system equipment, refer to Dimensions and Weights (page 67). Enough personnel are present to remove and transport each rack to the installation site. Tiled or carpeted pathways have temporary hard floor covering to facilitate moving the racks which have small casters. Door and hallway width and height, the floor and elevator loading, accommodate the system equipment, personnel, and lifting or moving devices. If necessary, enlarge or remove any obstructing doorway or wall. Operational Space for a NonStop i BladeSystem Ensure: Site layout plan uses the equipment dimensions, door swing, and service clearances listed in Dimensions and Weights (page 67) and takes advantage of existing lighting and electrical outlets. Airflow direction and current or future air conditioning ducts are not obstructed. Eliminate any obstructions to equipment intake or exhaust air flow. Refer to Cooling and Humidity Control (page 38). Adequate space planning to allow for future equipment. Site layout plan includes provisions for things such as channels or fixtures used for cable routing, cables, patch panels, and storage areas.

40 4 System Installation Specifications for NonStop i BladeSystems Racks This section provides specifications necessary for system installation planning. NOTE: All specifications provided in this section assume that each enclosure in the rack is fully populated. The maximum current for each AC service depends on the number and type of enclosures installed in the rack. Power, weight, and heat loads are less when enclosures are not fully populated; for example, a Fibre Channel disk module with fewer disks. The rack is an EIA standard 9-inch, 42U rack for mounting modular components. The rack comes equipped with front and rear doors and includes a rear extension that makes it deeper than some industry-standard racks. The PDUs described in Power Distribution Unit (PDU) Types for an Intelligent Rack (page 40) are mounted along the rear extension without occupying any U-space in the rack and are oriented inward, facing the components within the rack. NOTE: For instructions on grounding the Intelligent rack using the HPE Intelligent Rack Ground Bonding Kit (BW89A), ask your service provider to refer to the instructions in the HP Rack Options Installation Guide or to: For instructions on grounding the G2 rack using the Rack Grounding Kit (AF074A), ask your service provider to refer to the instructions in the HPE 0000 G2 Series Rack Options Installation Guide located here: Power Distribution for NonStop i BladeSystems in Intelligent Racks NOTE: This section describes power distribution for NonStop i BladeSystems in the Intelligent rack. For information on earlier power configurations used in the G2 rack, see Power Configurations for NonStop BladeSystems in G2 Racks (page 9). This topic describes: Power Distribution Unit (PDU) Types for an Intelligent Rack (page 40) AC Power Feeds in an Intelligent Rack (page 54) Power Distribution Unit (PDU) Types for an Intelligent Rack The Intelligent rack supports Intelligent PDUs (ipdus) and Modular PDUs. Both PDU types use a core and extension bar design with these characteristics: PDU cores power the extension bars and c7000 enclosure. PDU cores are mounted at the lowest possible U location in the rack. Two PDUs are mounted in the same U location (rear and front). Extension bars are mounted on the rear vertical rails of the rack. Rear-mounted PDU cores connect to the extension bars on the right side of the rack. Front-mounted PDU cores connect to the extension bars on the left side of the rack. If the rack is equipped with a UPS, the UPS outputs connect to the front-mounted PDU cores. NOTE: An Intelligent rack with a c7000 enclosure requires a four PDU core configuration. Racks without a c7000 enclosure use a two PDU core configuration. 40 System Installation Specifications for NonStop i BladeSystems

76 Cooling Airflow Direction NOTE: Because the front door of the enclosure must be adequately ventilated to allow air to enter the enclosure and the rear door must be adequately ventilated to allow air to escape, do not block the ventilation apertures of a NonStop i BladeSystem. Each NonStop i BladeSystem includes 0 Active Cool fans that provide high-volume, high pressure airflow at even the slowest fan speeds. Air flow for each NonStop i BladeSystem enters through a slot in the front of the c7000 enclosure and is pulled into the interconnect bays. Ducts allow the air to move from the front to the rear of the enclosure where it is pulled into the interconnects and the center plenum. The air is then exhausted out the rear of the enclosure. Blanking Panels If the NonStop i BladeSystem is not completely filled with components, the gaps between these components can cause adverse changes in the airflow, negatively impacting cooling within the rack. You must cover any gaps with blanking panels. In high density environments, air gaps in the enclosure and between adjacent enclosures should be sealed to prevent recirculation of hot-air from the rear of the enclosure to the front.

77 Calculating Specifications for Enclosure Combinations NB50000c Power and thermal calculations assume that each enclosure in the rack is fully populated. The power and heat load is less when enclosures are not fully populated, such as a SAS disk enclosure with fewer disk drives. AC power calculations assume that the power feed(s) on one side of the rack (left or right) deliver all power to the rack. In normal operation, the power is split equally between the two sides. However, calculate the power load to assume delivery from only one side to allow the system to continue to operate if power to one of the sides fails. Example of Rack Load Calculations NB50000c (page 77) lists the weight, power, and thermal calculations for a system with: One c7000 enclosure Eight NonStop server blades Two G2 or G5 IP or Storage CLIMs Two MSA70 SAS disk enclosures, containing 25 hard disk drives (HDDs) with 3 Gb SAS protocol, 0k rpm per each HDD One IOAM enclosure Two Fibre channel disk modules One rack-mounted system console with keyboard/monitor units One maintenance switch One CLIM patch panel One 42U rack (single-phase) For a total thermal load for a system with multiple racks, add the heat outputs for all the racks in the system.

82 5 System Configuration Guidelines NB50000c, NB54000c, and NB56000c This chapter provides configuration guidelines for a NonStop BladeSystem. Internal ServerNet Interconnect Cabling Dedicated Service LAN Cables The NonStop i BladeSystem can use Category 5e or Category 6, unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet cables for the internal dedicated service LAN and for connections between the application LAN equipment and IP CLIM, Telco CLIM, or IOAM enclosure. ServerNet Fabric and Supported Connections The ServerNet X and Y fabrics for the NonStop i BladeSystem are provided by the double-wide ServerNet switch in the c7000 enclosure. Each c7000 enclosure requires two ServerNet switches for fault tolerance and each switch has four ServerNet connection groups: ServerNet Cluster Connections ServerNet Fabric Cross-Link Connections Interconnections between c7000 enclosures I/O Connections (Standard I/O and High I/O options) The I/O connectivity to each of these groups is provided by one of two ServerNet switch options: either Standard I/O or High I/O. ServerNet Cluster Connections At J06.03, only standard ServerNet cluster connections via cluster switches using connections to both types of ServerNet-based cluster switches (6770 and 6780) is supported. There are two small form-factor pluggable (SFP) ports on each c7000 enclosure ServerNet switch: a single mode fiber (SMF) port (port 2) and a multi mode fiber (MMF) port (port ) for the two ServerNet style connections. Only one of these ports can be used at a time and only one connection per fabric (from the appropriate ServerNet switch for that fabric in group 00) to the system's cluster fabric is supported. ServerNet cluster connections on NonStop i BladeSystems follow the ServerNet cluster and cable length rules and restrictions. For more information, refer to these manuals: ServerNet Cluster Supplement for NonStop BladeSystems For 6770 switches and star topologies: ServerNet Cluster Manual For 6780 switches and layered topology: ServerNet Cluster 6780 Planning and Installation Guide BladeCluster Solution Connections As of J06.04, you can cluster BladeSystems to participate in a BladeCluster Solution. A BladeCluster Solution is comprised of network topologies that interconnect NonStop BladeSystems and NonStop NS6000 series systems as nodes, which can also cluster with 6770/6780 ServerNet clusters. For more information, see the BladeCluster Solution Manual. ServerNet Fabric Cross-Link Connections A pair of small form-factor pluggable (SFPs) with standard LC-Duplex connectors are provided to allow for the ServerNet fabric cross-link connection. Connections are made to ports 9 and 0 (labeled X and X2) on the c7000 enclosure ServerNet switch. 82 System Configuration Guidelines NB50000c, NB54000c, and NB56000c

83 Interconnections Between c7000 Enclosures A single c7000 enclosure can contain eight NonStop Server Blades. Two c7000 enclosures are interconnected to create a 6 processor system. These interconnections are provided by two quad optic ports: ports and 2 (labeled GA and GB) located on the c7000 enclosure ServerNet switches in the 5 and 7 interconnect bays. The GA port on the first c7000 enclosure is connected to the GA port on the second c7000 enclosure (same fabric) and then likewise the GB port to the GB port. These connections provide eight ServerNet cross-links between the two sets of eight NonStop processors and the ServerNet routers on the c7000 enclosure ServerNet switch. I/O Connections (Standard and High I/O ServerNet Switch Configurations) NOTE: If your BladeSystems participate in a BladeCluster, you must use the BladeCluster ServerNet switch. Refer to the BladeCluster Solution Manual. There are two types of c7000 enclosure ServerNet switches: Standard I/O and High I/O. Each pair of ServerNet switches in a c7000 enclosure must be identical, either Standard I/O or High I/O. However, you can mix ServerNet switches between enclosures. The main difference between the Standard I/O or High I/O switches is the number and type of quad optics modules that are installed for I/O connectivity. The Standard I/O ServerNet switch has three quad optic modules: ports 3, 4, and 8 (labeled GC, EA, and EE) for a total of 2 ServerNet links as shown following: Figure 2 ServerNet Switch Standard I/O Supported Connections The High I/O ServerNet switch has six quad optic modules ports 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 (labelled GC, EA, EB, EC, and ED) for a total of 24 ServerNet links as shown following. If both c7000 enclosures in a 6 processor system contain High I/O ServerNet switches, there are a total of 48 ServerNet connections for I/O. ServerNet Fabric and Supported Connections 83

84 Figure 22 ServerNet Switch High I/O Supported Connections Connections to IOAM Enclosures Refer to Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure) (page 73). Connections to G6SE Enclosures For general information on connecting to G6SE enclosures, refer to the G6SE Ethernet Connectivity Guide for NonStop BladeSystems. For detailed information, have your service provider refer to the G6SE Service Provider Supplement for NonStop BladeSystems. Connections to CLIMs NOTE: If NonStop S-series I/O enclosures are present, CLIMs cannot be connected to port 3 of the ServerNet switches in a c7000 enclosure. The NonStop i BladeSystem supports a maximum of 48 CLIMs per 6 processor system. A CLIM uses either one or two connections per ServerNet fabric. The Storage CLIM typically uses two connections per fabric to achieve high disk bandwidth. A networking CLIM (IP, Telco, or IB CLIM) typically uses one connection per ServerNet fabric. For I/O connections, a breakout cable is used on the back panel of the c7000 enclosure ServerNet switch to convert to standard LC-Duplex style connections. Connections to NonStop S-series I/O Enclosures Refer to Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure) (page 73). 84 System Configuration Guidelines NB50000c, NB54000c, and NB56000c

90 NEBS Required Statements NonStop BladeSystems NB50000c-cg, NB54000c-cg, and NB56000c-cg are designed for installation into a Central Office or similar telecommunications environment. NonStop BladeSystems NB50000c-cg, NB54000c-cg, and NB56000c-cg are suitable for installation as part of a Common Bonding Network (CBN). To ensure proper electrical contact when grounding a BladeSystem CG rack: Use a ground cable of the same or larger size than the largest DC input power conductors, using a 40º C correction factor. Use a cable constructed of copper, 75 C minimum rated. Use only Listed two-hole copper compression-type lugs for the ground connector. Before making any crimp connections, coat bare wire and base connectors with antioxidant. Use star washers between the lug and rack ground rail to ensure proper ground contact and anti-rotation. The Battery Return (BR) Input Terminals are considered to be an Isolate DC Return (DC-I). NonStop BladeSystems NB50000c-cg, NB54000c-cg, and NB56000c-cg are suitable for connection to intrabuilding or non-exposed wiring or cabling only. Unshielded, twisted-pair (UTP) cables may be used for NEBS and non-nebs installation. WARNING! The intrabuilding port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for connection to intrabuilding or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intrabuilding port(s) of the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intrabuilding interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-089-CORE, Issue 5) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring. This symbol indicates Hewlett Packard Enterprise systems and peripherals that contain assemblies and components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Carefully observe the precautions and recommended procedures in this document to prevent component damage from static electricity.

Specifically either of these tables from the handbook, depending on the Cable Rating that is selected at the site (60C-90C vs. 50C-250C jacketing): Allowable Ampacities of Insulated Conductors Rated 0 Through 2000 Volts, 60 C Through 90 C, Not More Than Three Current-Carrying Conductors in Raceway, Cable, or Earth, Based on Ambient Temperature of 30 C (Table 30.6) Allowable Ampacities of Insulated Conductors Rated 0 Through 2000 Volts, 50 C Through 250 C (302 F Through 482 F). Not More Than Three Current-Carrying Conductors in Raceway, Cable, or Earth, Based on Ambient Temperature of 40 C (04 F) (Table 30.8) Requirements for Site Power or Ground Cables The customer must ensure the site power cables meet the ampacity requirements for a NEBS 50 C environment. CAUTION: Use Table 30.6 or Table 30.8 along with Table 30.5(B)(2)(a). See Required Documentation (page 8) to verify the site power input cables meet the ampacity requirements for a NEBS 50 C environment. To ensure the site power input cables you plan to use meet the ampacity requirements for a NEBS 50 C environment: Depending on the site s Cable Rating requirements, use Table 30.6 or Table 30.8 (60 C-90 C or 50 C-250 C jacketing, respectively). See Required Documentation (page 8) to determine the correct cable size, based on the type and grade of cable you plan to use. To reach the NEBS 50 C environment, apply the correction factor within each table for the 50 C ambient temperature range (Table 30.6 is 46 C-50 C; Table 30.8 is 4 C-50 C) to the ampacity values in the Table to obtain the corrected maximum ampacity that is acceptable in the NEBS 50 C environment. If more than three current-carrying conductors will be run vertically through the sides of the rack, or lay in a site s raceway for longer than 24 inches, apply the correction factor from Table 30.5(B)(2)(a) to the ampacity values from Table 30.6 or Table 30.8 at 50 C. 8 Site Power Cables Carrier Grade

143 NonStop i BladeSystem Three-Phase Power Distribution in a G2 Rack North America/Japan (NA/JPN) and International (INTL) are the supported regions for three-phase NonStop BladeSystems. For these regions, there are four different versions of the rack level PDU, depending on whether you are using modular or monitored PDUs. For c7000 three-phase power setup details, refer to the instructions for your PDU: Three-Phase Power Setup in a G2 Rack, Monitored PDUs (page 43) Three-Phase Power Setup in a G2 Rack, Modular PDUs (page 52) Three-phase power configurations require 200V to 240V distribution and careful attention to phase load balancing. For more information, refer to Phase Load Balancing (page 65). The NonStop BladeSystem's three-phase c7000 enclosure contains an AC Input Module that provides N + N redundant power distribution for the power configurations. This power module comes with a pair of power cords that provide direct AC power feeds to the c7000 enclosure. One c7000 power feed connects to a rack PDU that is powered from the main power grid. The other c7000 power feed connects to a rack PDU that is powered from either the backup power grid or from the R2000/3 UPS installed in the rack. These PDUs and the rack UPS are dedicated to the c7000. For the other components in the rack, two other PDUs are available (main and backup) and a second, optional rack UPS is available.

165 Phase Load Balancing For three-phase racks, each PDU is wired such that there are three load segments with groups of outlets alternating between load segments, going up and down the PDU. Factory-installed enclosures, other than the c7000, are connected to the PDUs on alternating load segments to facilitate phase load balancing. The c7000 has its own three-phase input, with each phase (International) or pairs of phases (North America/Japan) associated with one of the c7000 power supplies. When the c7000 is operating in Dynamic Power Saving Mode, the minimum number of power supplies are enabled to redundantly power the enclosure. This mode increases power supply efficiency, but leaves the phases or phase pairs associated with the disabled power supplies unloaded. For multiple-rack installations, in order to balance phase loads when Dynamic Power Saving Mode is enabled, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends rotating the phases from one rack to the next. For example, if the first rack is wired A-B-C, the next rack should be wired B-C-A, and the next C-A-B, and so on. For single-phase racks, follow the guidelines for phase load balancing by alternating load segment assignments of module power cords to prevent overloading the PDU load segments and circuit breakers.

Slot 2 contains a 2-port GbE copper NIC for customer interfaces. Eth, eth2, and eth3 ports provide three embedded Gb Ethernet copper ports for customer data. G6 IB CLIM The G6 IB CLIM is used in some NonStop i BladeSystem configurations to provide InfiniBand connectivity via dual-ported Host Channel Adapter (HCA) InfiniBand interfaces. The HCA IB interface on the IB CLIM connects to a customer-supplied IB switch using a customer-supplied cable as part of the Low Latency Solution. The Low Latency Solution also requires Subnet Manager software either installed on the IB switch or running on another server. NOTE: IB CLIMs are only used as a Low Latency Solution. They do not provide general purpose InfiniBand connectivity for NonStop Systems. The Low Latency Solution architecture provides a high speed and low latency messaging system for stock exchange trading from the incoming trade server to the NonStop operating system. The solution utilizes third-party software from Informatica for messaging and order sequencing which must be installed separately. For information about obtaining Informatica software, contact your service provider. For the list of supported third-party software, refer to the CLuster I/O Module (CLIM) Software Compatibility Reference. The following illustration shows the IB and Ethernet interfaces and ServerNet fabric connections on an IB CLIM. 69

170 G6 IB CLIM Port and Slot Eth, Eth 2, Eth 3 ports Slot Slot 2 and Slot 3 Slot 4 Slot 5 and Slot 6 Description Each Eth port provides one Gb Ethernet copper interface via embedded Gigabit NIC ServerNet fabric connections via a PCIe 4x adapter Unused Two InfiniBand interfaces (ib0 and ib ports) via the IB HCA card. Only one IB interface port is utilized by the Informatica software. Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends connecting to the ib0 interface for ease of manageability. Unused NOTE: All CLIMs use the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) subsystem. For more information about the CIP subsystem, refer to the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual.

173 F Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure) NonStop S-series I/O Enclosures (Optional) NOTE: For NonStop BladeSystems NB54000c and NB56000c, only the Platform Configuration 9 option supports connections to NonStop S-series I/O enclosures. For more information, refer to NonStop i BladeSystems Platform Configurations (page 26). Up to four NonStop S-series I/O enclosures (Groups -4) can be connected to the ServerNet switches in a c7000 enclosure (Group 00 only). The supported S-series I/O connections are for the Token-Ring ServerNet Adapter (TRSA) or 6763 Common Communications ServerNet Adapter 2 (CCSA 2). These adapters can coexist in the same system configuration. No other S-series ServerNet adapters are supported. NonStop S-series I/O enclosures in NonStop BladeSystems have these characteristics: Connections are made using an MTP-SC cable between the IOMF 2 FRUs (slots 50 and 55) in the S-series I/O enclosure and port 3 of the ServerNet switches in the c7000 enclosure. Each IOMF 2 connection supports up to 2 TRSAs or 2 CCSA 2s. Only ServerNet switch port 3 supports S-series I/O connections and all S-series connections are made to this one port. The group numbers for the four I/O S-series enclosures are, 2, 3, and 4. These enclosures can be connected to the Group 00 c7000 enclosure only. New NonStop S-series I/O enclosures can be installed in G2 racks. If you have existing S-series I/O enclosures in other types of racks, you can also connect these I/O enclosures to a NonStop BladeSystem. The NonStop S-series I/O enclosure assembly requires a total of 20 U of contiguous space. A rack can only contain up to two NonStop S-series I/O enclosure assemblies. If NonStop S-series I/O enclosures are present, CLIMs cannot be connected to port 3 of the ServerNet switches in the c7000 enclosure. For more information about these connections, ask your Hewlett Packard Enterprise service provider to refer to the NonStop i BladeSystem Hardware Installation Manual NonStop S-series CO I/O Enclosures (Optional) Up to four NonStop S-series CO I/O enclosures (Groups -4) can be connected to the ServerNet switches in a c7000 enclosure (Group 00 only). For more information, refer to Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure) (page 73). The supported S-series CO I/O connections are for the Token-Ring ServerNet Adapter (TRSA) or 6763 Common Communications ServerNet Adapter 2 (CCSA 2) which provide SS7 connectivity. These adapters can coexist in the same system configuration. No other S-series ServerNet adapters are supported. These connections are made using an MTP-SC cable between the IOMF 2 FRUs (slots 50 and 55) in the S-series CO I/O enclosure and port 3 of the ServerNet switches in the c7000 enclosure. Each IOMF 2 connection supports up to 2 TRSAs or 2 CCSA 2s. Only ServerNet switch port 3 supports S-series CO I/O connections and all S-series connections are made to this one port. NOTE: If CLIMs are already connected to port 3, you must move them to another port on the ServerNet switches and reconfigure them. NonStop S-series CO I/O enclosures in NonStop Carrier Grade BladeSystems have these characteristics: New NonStop S-series CO I/O enclosures can be installed in seismic racks. A customer that has existing S-series I/O enclosures in other types of racks can connect those I/O enclosures to a NonStop Carrier Grade BladeSystem, but any alarm panels from older systems cannot be used. NonStop Carrier Grade BladeSystems support the alarm panel described in HPE NonStop System Alarm Panel (page 96) only. NonStop S-series I/O Enclosures (Optional) 73

174 No 46xxdisk drives are supported. Only the TRSA or CCSA 2 (with up to 4 SS7TE3 plug-in cards (PICs) is supported. No other configurations of the CCSA 2 are supported and no other ServerNet adapters are supported. The CO I/O enclosure assembly requires a total of 20 U of contiguous space. The seismic rack can contain only one NonStop S-series CO I/O enclosure assembly. CO I/O enclosures receive power directly from site power rail and site power rail B. They do not connect to the fuse panel or to the breaker panel. NOTE: If NonStop S-series CO I/O enclosures are present, CLIMs cannot be connected to port 3 of the ServerNet switches in the c7000 CG enclosure. Fibre Channel Devices This subsection describes Fibre Channel devices. The rack-mounted Fibre Channel disk module (FCDM) can only be used with NonStop i BladeSystems that have IOAM enclosures. An FCDM and its disk drives are controlled through the Fibre Channel ServerNet adapter (FCSA). For more information on the FCSA, refer to the Fibre-Channel ServerNet Adapter Installation and Support Guide. For more information on the Fibre Channel disk module (FCDM), refer to Fibre Channel Disk Module (FCDM) (page 24). For examples of cable connections between FCSAs and FCDMs, refer to Example Configurations of the IOAM Enclosure and Fibre Channel Disk Module (page 80). This illustration shows an FCSA with indicators and ports: This illustration shows the locations of the hardware in the Fibre Channel disk module as well as the Fibre Channel port connectors at the back of the enclosure: 74 Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure)

175 Fibre Channel disk modules connect to Fibre Channel ServerNet adapters (FCSAs) via Fiber Channel arbitrated loop (FC-AL) cables. This drawing shows the two Fibre Channel arbitrated loops implemented within the Fibre Channel disk module: Fibre Channel Disk Module Group-Module-Slot Numbering This table shows the default numbering for the Fibre Channel disk module: IOAM Enclosure FCDM Group Module Slot FCSA F-SACs Shelf Slot Item X fabric; 3 - Y fabric - 5, 2-4 if daisy-chained; if single disk enclosure Fibre Channel disk module Disk drive bays Transceiver A 90 Transceiver A2 9 Transceiver B 92 Transceiver B2 93 Left FC-AL board Fibre Channel Devices 75

178 This illustration shows the slot locations for the IOAM enclosure: Factory-Default Disk Volume Locations for FCDMs This illustration shows where the factory-default locations for the primary and mirror system disk volumes reside in separate Fibre Channel disk modules: FCSA location and cable connections vary according to the various controller and Fibre Channel disk module combinations. Configurations for Fibre Channel Devices Storage subsystems in NonStop S-series systems used a fixed hardware layout. Each enclosure can have up to four controllers for storage devices and up to 6 internal disk drives. The controllers and disk drives always have a fixed logical location with standardized location IDs of group-module-slot. Only the group number changes as determined by the enclosure position in the ServerNet topology. However, the NonStop BladeSystems have no fixed boundaries for the Fibre Channel hardware layout. Up to 60 FCSA (or 20 ServerNet addressable controllers) and 240 Fibre Channel disk 78 Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure)

179 enclosures, with identification depending on the ServerNet connection of the IOAM and slot housing in the FCSAs. Configuration Restrictions for Fibre Channel Devices These configuration restrictions apply and are invoked by Subsystem Control Facility (SCF): Primary and mirror disk drives cannot connect to the same Fibre Channel loop. Loss of the Fibre Channel loop makes both the primary volume and the mirrored volume inaccessible. This configuration inhibits fault tolerance. Disk drives in different Fibre Channel disk modules on a daisy chain connect to the same Fibre Channel loop. The primary path and backup Fibre Channel communication links to a disk drive should not connect to FCSAs in the same module of an IOAM enclosure. In a fully populated system, loss of one FCSA can make up to 56 disk drives inaccessible on a single Fibre Channel communications path. This configuration is allowed, but only if you override an SCF warning message. The mirror path and mirror backup Fibre Channel communication links to a disk drive should not connect to FCSAs in the same module of an IOAM enclosure. In a fully populated system, loss of one FCSA can make up to 56 disk drives inaccessible on a single Fibre Channel communications path. This configuration is allowed, but only if you override an SCF warning message. Recommendations for Fibre Channel Device Configuration These recommendations apply to FCSA and Fibre Channel disk module configurations: Primary Fibre Channel disk module connects to the FCSA F-SAC. Mirror Fibre Channel disk module connects to the FCSA F-SAC 2. FC-AL port A is the incoming port from an FCSA or from another Fibre Channel disk module. FC-AL port A2 is the outbound port to another Fibre Channel disk module. FC-AL port B2 is the incoming port from an FCSA or from a Fibre Channel disk module. FC-AL port B is the outbound port to another Fibre Channel disk module. In a daisy-chain configuration, the ID expander harness determines the enclosure number. Enclosure is always at the bottom of the chain. FCSAs can be installed in slots through 5 in an IOAM. G4SAs can be installed in slots through 5 in an IOAM. In systems with two or more racks, primary and mirror Fibre Channel disk modules reside in separate racks to prevent application or system outage if a power outage affects one rack. With primary and mirror Fibre Channel disk modules in the same rack, the primary Fibre Channel disk module resides in a lower U than the mirror Fibre Channel disk module. Fibre Channel disk drives are configured with dual paths. Where possible, FCSAs and Fibre Channel disk modules are configured with four FCSAs and four Fibre Channel disk modules for maximum fault tolerance. If FCSAs are not in groups of four, the remaining FCSAs and Fibre Channel disk modules can be configured in other fault-tolerant configurations such as with two FCSAs and two Fibre Channel disk modules or four FCSAs and three Fibre Channel disk modules. In systems with one IOAM enclosure: With two FCSAs and two Fibre Channel disk modules, the primary FCSA resides in module 2 of the IOAM enclosure, and the backup FCSA resides in module 3. (See the example configuration in Two FCSAs, Two FCDMs, One IOAM Enclosure (page 8). With four FCSAs and four Fibre Channel disk modules, FCSA and FCSA 2 reside in module 2 of the IOAM enclosure, and FCSA 3 and FCSA 4 reside in module 3. (See Fibre Channel Devices 79

180 the example configuration in Four FCSAs, Four FCDMs, One IOAM Enclosure (page 8).) In systems with two or more IOAM enclosures: With two FCSAs and two Fibre Channel disk modules, the primary FCSA resides in IOAM enclosure, and the backup FCSA resides in IOAM enclosure 2. (See the example configuration in Two FCSAs, Two FCDMs, Two IOAM Enclosures (page 82).) With four FCSAs and four Fibre Channel disk modules, FCSA and FCSA 2 reside in IOAM enclosure, and FCSA 3 and FCSA 4 reside in IOAM enclosure 2. (See the example configuration in Four FCSAs, Four FCDMs, Two IOAM Enclosures (page 83).) Daisy-chain configurations follow the same configuration restrictions and rules that apply to configurations that are not daisy-chained. (See Daisy-Chain Configurations (FCDMs) (page 84).) Fibre Channel disk modules containing mirrored volumes must be installed in separate daisy chains. Daisy-chained configurations require that all Fibre Channel disk modules reside in the same rack and be physically grouped together. Daisy-chain configurations require an ID expander harness with terminators for proper Fibre Channel disk module and disk drive identification. After you connect all Fibre Channel disk modules in configurations of four FCSAs and four Fibre Channel disk modules, yet three Fibre Channel disk modules remain not connected, connect them to the four FCSAs. (See the example configuration in Four FCSAs, Three FCDMs, One IOAM Enclosure (page 86).) Gigabit Ethernet 4-Port ServerNet Adapter (G4SA) Ethernet Ports For information on the Ethernet ports on a G4SA installed in an IOAM enclosure, refer to the Gigabit Ethernet 4-Port Adapter (G4SA) Installation and Support Guide. Example Configurations of the IOAM Enclosure and Fibre Channel Disk Module These subsections show various example configurations of FCSA controllers and Fibre Channel disk modules with IOAM enclosures. NOTE: Although it is not a requirement for fault tolerance to house the primary and mirror disk drives in separate FCDMs. the example configurations show FCDMs housing only primary or mirror drives, mainly for simplicity in keeping track of the physical locations of the drives.

Many volumes in a large Fibre Channel loop. The more volumes that exist in a larger loop, the higher the potential for negative impact from a failure that takes down a Fibre Channel loop. All daisy-chained Fibre Channel disk modules reside in the same rack and are physically grouped together. Low-cost, high-capacity data storage is important. Applications with a highly mixed workload, such as transaction data bases or applications with high disk I/O. ID expander harness with terminators is installed for proper Fibre Channel disk module and drive identification. 84 Legacy Hardware (IOAM, FCDM, S-Series I/O Enclosure)

185 Daisy-Chained Disks Recommended Daisy-Chained Disks Not Recommended Requirements for Daisy-Chain FCSA for each Fibre Channel loop is installed in a different IOAM module for fault tolerance. Two Fibre Channel disk modules minimum, with four Fibre Channel disk modules maximum per daisy chain. See Fibre Channel Devices (page 74). This illustration shows an example of cable connections between the two FCSAs and four Fibre Channel disk modules in a single daisy-chain configuration: A second equivalent configuration, including an IOAM enclosure, two FCSAs, four Fibre Channel disk modules with an ID expander, is required for fault-tolerant mirrored disk storage. Installing each mirrored disk in the same corresponding FCDM and bay number as its primary disk in not required, but it is recommend to simplify the physical management and identification of the disks.

188 G UPS and Data Center Power Configurations This appendix provides examples of UPS and data center power configurations, and: Specifies the UPS configurations supported on the NonStop i BladeSystem including the recommended UPS configuration for when the disk drive write cache is enabled. Identifies the non-supported UPS configurations that should not be used with the NonStop i BladeSystem when the disk drive write cache is enabled. Explains why some configurations are not supported. Informs you of what you must do to prevent data loss. NOTE: All example UPS configuration illustrations in this appendix show NonStop i BladeSystem hardware, but these configurations are supported on all NonStop platforms and can be used with single-phase and three-phase UPS. IMPORTANT: You must change the ride-through time for a Hewlett Packard Enterprise-supported UPS from the manufacturing default setting to an appropriate value for your system. During installation of NonStop i BladeSystem or UPS, your service provider can refer to the "Setting the Ride-Through Time and Configuring for Maximized Runtime" procedure in the NonStop i BladeSystem Hardware Manual for these instructions. Supported UPS Configurations These are the supported UPS configurations for a NonStop BladeSystem: NonStop i BladeSystem With a Fault-Tolerant Data Center (page 89) NonStop i BladeSystem With a Rack-Mounted UPS (page 90) SAS Disk Enclosures With a Rack-Mounted UPS (page 9) 88 UPS and Data Center Power Configurations

189 NonStop i BladeSystem With a Fault-Tolerant Data Center In this supported configuration, the NonStop i BladeSystem is installed in a Tier-IV data center. The data center tier classification is defined by the Uptime InstituteTM Tier Classifications Define Site Infrastructure White Paper. IMPORTANT: With this configuration, you can guarantee the data center never loses power. Figure 53 shows an example of a NonStop i BladeSystem in a fault-tolerant data center which has two simultaneously-active power distribution paths with multiple backup UPS and engine-generator systems. Figure 53 NonStop i BladeSystem With a Fault-Tolerant Data Center Supported UPS Configurations 89

190 NonStop i BladeSystem With a Rack-Mounted UPS Figure 54 shows an example of a supported configuration in a NonStop i BladeSystem with the left PDUs connected to one or more rack-mounted UPS, and the right PDUs connected directly to the utility power. The rack-mounted UPS is connected to the utility power. Figure 54 NonStop i BladeSystem With a Rack-Mounted UPS When OSM detects that one power rail is running on UPS and the other power rail has lost power, OSM logs an event indicating the beginning of the configured ride-through time period. OSM monitors if AC power is restored before the ride-through period ends. If AC Power is restored before the ride-through period ends, the ride-through countdown terminates and OSM does not take further steps to prepare for an outage. If AC Power is not restored before the ride-through periods ends, OSM broadcasts a PFAIL_SHOUT command to all processors (the processor running OSM being the last one in the queue) to shut down the system ServerNet routers and processors. The PFAIL_SHOUT command enables disk writes for data that is in transit through controllers and disks to complete. 90 UPS and Data Center Power Configurations

191 SAS Disk Enclosures With a Rack-Mounted UPS In this supported configuration, only SAS Disk Enclosures are protected by the rack-mounted UPS. The rack(s) with SAS Disk Enclosures and/or Storage CLIMs are supported by one or more rack-mounted UPS. Figure 55 shows an example of this supported configuration in a NonStop i BladeSystem with the left PDUs connected to the rack-mounted UPS, and the right PDUs connected to the utility power. The rack-mounted UPS is connected to the utility power. Figure 55 SAS Disk Enclosures With a Rack-Mounted UPS When the utility power fails, the NonStop i BladeSystem powers off without an OSM-initiated controlled shutdown of the I/O operations and processors. Only the products in the rack with the rack-mounted UPS remain powered on. All completed disk write transactions data are written to the disk drive media or the disk drive write cache. The rack-mounted UPS provides the extended time for the disk drives to transfer the data from their write cache to the media. The rack-mounted UPS provides extended time for the disk drives to transfer the data from their write cache to the media preventing loss of data. Supported UPS Configurations 9

192 Non-Supported UPS Configurations This section identifies non-supported UPS configurations and explains why these configurations are not supported. It also explains what you must do to prevent data loss. CAUTION: If disk drive write caching is enabled in the NonStop BladeSystem, do not use any of these non-supported UPS configurations. They might result in data loss.

193 NonStop i BladeSystem With a Data Center UPS, Single Power Rail Figure 56 shows an example of a non-supported configuration in a NonStop i BladeSystem with the left PDUs directly connected to the utility power, and the right PDUs connected to the data center UPS. In this configuration, OSM does not manage or monitor the data center UPS. Figure 56 NonStop i BladeSystem With a Data Center UPS, Single Power Rail When the utility power fails, OSM does not detect that the data center UPS is running on battery and the UPS has entered its battery runtime. OSM does not initiate the controlled shutdown of the I/O operations and processors. If the utility power is not restored before the data center UPS shuts down, any data in the NonStop i BladeSystem disk drive write cache that has not been transferred to the disk drive media is lost. To prevent data loss during a utility power failure, you must manually disable the Write Cache Enable (WCE) option on all the disk drive volumes. For information on the WRITECACHE disk attribute and how to disable WCE, refer to the SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem (G06.28+, H06.05+, J06.03+). When the utility power is restored, you can enable the WCE. During the utility power failure, the system can continue to run until the data center UPS runs out of power or until it shuts down.

194 NonStop i BladeSystem With Data Center UPS, Both Power Rails In this non-supported configuration, a NonStop i BladeSystem is installed in a Tier-I, Tier-II or Tier-III data center. The data center tier classification is defined by the Uptime InstituteTM Tier Classifications Define Site Infrastructure White Paper. IMPORTANT: lose power. If you use this configuration, there is no guarantee your data center will never Figure 57 shows an example of this non-supported configuration in a NonStop i BladeSystem with the left and right PDUs connected to the data center UPS. In this configuration, OSM does not manage or monitor the data center UPS. Figure 57 NonStop i BladeSystem With Data Center UPS, Both Power Rails When the utility power fails, OSM does not detect that the data center UPS is running on battery and the UPS has entered its battery runtime. OSM does not initiate the controlled shutdown of the I/O operations and processors. If the utility power is not restored before the data center UPS shuts down, any data in the NonStop i BladeSystem disk drive write cache that has not been transferred to the disk drive media is lost. To prevent data loss during a utility power failure, you must manually disable the Write Cache Enable (WCE) option on all the disk drive volumes. For information on the WRITECACHE disk attribute and how to disable WCE, see the SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem (G06.28+, H06.05+, J06.03+). When the utility power is restored, you can enable WCE. During a utility power failure, the system can continue to run until the data center UPS runs out of power or until it shuts down. 94 UPS and Data Center Power Configurations

195 NonStop i BladeSystem With Rack-Mounted UPS and Data Center UPS in Parallel Figure 58 shows an example of a non-supported configuration in a NonStop i BladeSystem with the left PDUs connected to the rack-mounted UPS, and the right PDUs connected to the data center UPS. In this configuration, OSM manages and monitors the rack-mounted UPS. However, OSM does not manage or monitor the data center UPS. Figure 58 NonStop i BladeSystem With Rack-Mounted UPS and Data Center UPS in Parallel When the utility power fails, OSM detects a UPS AC Input not Present event from the rack-mounted UPS. OSM does not recognize the data center UPS. OSM does not detect that the data center UPS is running on battery and that the UPS has entered its battery runtime. OSM does not initiate the controlled shutdown of the I/O operations and processors. The rack-mounted UPS shuts down before the data center UPS. If the utility power is not restored before the data center UPS shuts down, any data in the NonStop i BladeSystem disk drive write cache that has not been transferred to the disk drive media is lost. To prevent data loss during a utility power failure, you must manually disable the Write Cache Enable (WCE) option on all the disk drive volumes. For information on the WRITECACHE disk attribute and how to disable WCE, see the SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem (G06.28+, H06.05+, J06.03+). When the utility power is restored, you can enable the WCE. During the utility power failure, the system can continue to run until the data center UPS runs out of power or until it shuts down.

196 NonStop i BladeSystem With Two Rack-Mounted UPS in Parallel Figure 59 shows an example of a non-supported configuration in a NonStop i BladeSystem with the left PDUs connected to a rack-mounted UPS, and the right PDUs connected to a different rack-mounted UPS. In this configuration, OSM manages and monitors the rack-mounted UPSs. Figure 59 NonStop i BladeSystem With Two Rack-Mounted UPS in Parallel OSM has the capability to monitor both UPSs, but it does not have the logic to initiate the controlled shutdown of the I/O operations and processors when utility power fails in this configuration. If the utility power is not restored before both rack-mounted UPSs shut down, any data in the NonStop i BladeSystem disk drive write cache that has not been transferred to the disk drive media is lost. If you want to extend the UPS battery runtime, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends adding Extended Runtime Modules (ERMs) to the UPS. 96 UPS and Data Center Power Configurations

197 NonStop i BladeSystem with Cascading Rack-Mounted UPS and Data Center UPS Figure 60 shows an example of a non-supported configuration in a NonStop i BladeSystem with the left PDUs connected to the rack-mounted UPS, and the right PDUs connected to a data center UPS. To create a cascading UPS configuration, the rack-mounted UPS is connected to the data center UPS. Figure 60 NonStop i BladeSystem With Cascading UPS A cascading UPS configuration presents potential problems. Problems attaining stability between the pair of cascaded UPSs can cause unexpected and undesirable behavior. The control loops of each UPS can interfere with the other. A typical scenario where this behavior occurs is the failure of the smaller downstream UPS to recognize a stable input from its upstream source. In the event of an upstream UPS failure or output disturbance, the downstream UPS switches the load to battery. Once the upstream UPS regains full function, the downstream UPS should recognize a stable input and switch to pass-through mode; but this does not happen in all cases and some cases fail. In a failing case, the downstream UPS fails to switch back to pass-through mode, instead running from the battery until the battery set is drained. Once the battery is drained, the downstream UPS must attempt to switch back up to pass-through mode. At the minimum, this leaves the downstream UPS with depleted batteries.
