System Installation with ContentServer 3000 Series<br />

Connecting the ContentDirectors<br />

IMPORTANT: Ports 1-4 on switch modules C and D are reserved for ContentDirector private interface (ports<br />

2 and 3) connections only.<br />

1.<br />

To connect the ContentDirectors:<br />

Connect the ContentDirector private interfaces (ports 2 and 3) to the switch as follows:<br />

a. Connect port 2 on the first ContentDirector to port 1 on switch module D.<br />

b. Connect port 3 on the first ContentDirector to port 1 on switch module C.<br />

2. Connect the ContentDirector public interfaces (ports 1 and 0) to the switch as follows:<br />

a. Connect port 1 on the first ContentDirector to port 5 on switch module C.<br />

b. Connect port 0 on the first ContentDirector to port 5 on switch module D.<br />

3. Continue connecting any remaining ContentDirectors in the same manner, starting with port 2 on the<br />

switch for the private interfaces and port 6 on the switch for the public interfaces.<br />

Connecting the SystemManager<br />

To connect the SystemManager:<br />

Connect port 1 on the SystemManager to port 8 on switch module D.<br />

IMPORTANT: Make sure to leave a space for the SystemManager keyboard/monitor tray. It is recommended<br />

that you mount the keyboard monitor and tray 71.12 cm (28.0 in.) off the floor. This height is ideal for using the<br />

SystemManager while seated or standing.<br />

Connecting the ContentServers<br />

Complete these connections after connecting all ContentDirectors.<br />

To connect the ContentServers:<br />

1. From the left-hand controller, connect NIC 0 to an open port on 1 GbE switch module C. This will<br />

serve as the BMC connection for this controller<br />

2. Connect port 4 on the left-hand controller to an open port on 10 GbE switch module A. Then,<br />

connect port 5 on the left-hand controller to an open port on 10 GbE switch module A.<br />

3. From the right-hand controller, connect NIC 0 to an open port on 1 GbE switch module D. This will<br />

serve as the BMC connection for this controller.<br />

4. Connect port 4 on the right-hand controller to an open port on 10 GbE switch module B. Then,<br />

connect port 5 on the right-hand controller to an open port on 10 GbE switch module B.<br />

IMPORTANT: To ensure redundancy and proper failover in the event of a failure, you must connect each<br />

controller to a separate switch or switch module.<br />

5. Continue connecting the remaining ContentServers in the same manner.<br />
