least one more network. As you connect the HP StoreEasy 5000 Storage to your network

infrastructure, consider the following requirements:

• Since deploying the cluster requires that both servers be joined to an Active Directory domain,

you must have a route to the domain controller from each server on the storage system.

• Servers in a cluster must use DNS for name resolution, so you must have a route to a DNS

server from each server on the storage system.

• If you are adding more than one adapter per server to your network infrastructure, each

adapter should be on a different subnet.

Figure 13 (page 19) shows two possibilities for adding network cables for an additional network.

Figure 13 Cabling an additional network

1. Connect 10 GbE Public 1 (Blade 1) and 10 GbE Public 2 (Blade 2) to the same subnet in

your network infrastructure. Note that adapters were chosen on different pass-through modules.

This prevents the pass-through module from becoming a single point of failure for the connection

between the two nodes.

2. Connect 1 GbE Public 4 (Blade 1) and 1 GbE Public 4 (Blade 2) to the same subnet in your

network infrastructure.

In later configuration steps you can configure the adapters you have connected to your network.

If you have connected to a DHCP-enabled network, no further configuration is necessary. Otherwise,

you must assign static addresses to the adapters. You may also want to rename the adapters to

reflect their use in your environment. Also note that these are only two examples out of many

networking possibilities. NIC teaming may also be used. It is not necessary to make all these

decisions now, because you can always add more networks after the system has been deployed.

NOTE: Disable network interfaces that are disconnected when configuring the network settings.

The Enclosure Manager and iLO port (6, Figure 12 (page 18)) provides for a connection from your

network infrastructure to the Enclosure Manager Unit (EMU) and to the iLO on each blade. For

ease of setup, the EMU and each iLO processor have been assigned static IP addresses in the

factory. You use these addresses to make an initial connection, and then configure each to connect

to your network. The factory configured addresses are as follows:
