Configuring the FDDI Interconnect The following subsections describe how to configure each type of server. D.1.1. IX4400 Server Configuration (HLC2) ClearPath IX4400 servers contain the following hardware components that you must configure using SCMS: • Processing complex cabinet 0 (PCC0) contains a dedicated input/output processor (IOP). • That IOP connects to block multiplexer channels (BMC) in a BMC rack in PCC0. • A Host LAN Controller-2 (HLC-2) connects to a BMC channel. • The HLC-2 contains an FDDI channel card that connects to an EISA FDDI card in the Intel node. • The HLC-2 contains an Ethernet feature, if needed, to make a TCP/IP connection to a site’s production LAN. Notes: • Multiple Intel node configurations require that you configure multiple PCC cabinets, because each FDDI control unit/device combination is normally configured to IOPs in different PCC cabinets. • A TCP/IP Ethernet connection to the site’s production LAN is required. If a connection does not already exist, the connection can be made through the HLR2- EDF Ethernet feature. Configure those components as follows: 1. Power on or reboot the SCF workstation (master system console) in SDF online mode. 2. Using SCMS, add a 4.5-MB-per-second block multiplexer channel input/output processor module (IOPM-BMC-4.5) to the processor complex cabinet (PCC) configuration. Select that module from the PCC feature screen as follows: D–2 Version 009B (Web Only) 7850 5104–009

Configure the HLC-2 to match the hardware configuration as follows: a. Add an HLC-2 unit to inventory and assign it whatever name is appropriate for the site. b. Add the FDDI feature to location 00 (the A position) in the HLC-2. Make sure the feature component name for the first control unit is FDDIVI. SCMS automatically names the devices as HLVI01 (address=1 type=output) and HLVI02 (address=2 type=input). Do not change those names. Add additional control units for additional Intel nodes, as needed, and name them as follows: • FDDIVJ (device names HLVJ01 and HLVJ02 are generated by default) for control unit 2 • FDDIVK (device names HLVK01 and HLVK02 are generated by default) for control unit 3 • FDDIVL (device names HLVL01 and HLVL02 are generated by default) for control unit 4 Note: These names are required for later use by automated configuration tools. Either device name (it does not matter which) can be assigned as input or output. c. Exit from the inventory add procedure. d. Modify inventory to add the Ethernet feature to the HLC-2 in location 01 (the B position). e. Exit to the main menu of SCMS. f. Use System_include to include the HLC-2 in the system configuration. 7850 5104–009 Version 009B (Web Only) D–3 i02 i18

Configuring the FDDI Interconnect<br />
The following subsections describe how to configure each type of server.<br />
D.1.1. <strong>IX</strong>4400 Server <strong>Configuration</strong> (HLC2)<br />
<strong>ClearPath</strong> <strong>IX</strong>4400 servers contain the following hardware components that you must<br />
configure using SCMS:<br />
• Processing complex cabinet 0 (PCC0) contains a dedicated input/output processor<br />
(IOP).<br />
• That IOP connects to block multiplexer channels (BMC) in a BMC rack in PCC0.<br />
• A Host LAN Controller-2 (HLC-2) connects to a BMC channel.<br />
• The HLC-2 contains an FDDI channel card that connects to an EISA FDDI card in the<br />
Intel node.<br />
• The HLC-2 contains an Ethernet feature, if needed, to make a TCP/IP connection to a<br />
site’s production LAN.<br />
Notes:<br />
• Multiple Intel node configurations require that you configure multiple PCC<br />
cabinets, because each FDDI control unit/device combination is normally<br />
configured to IOPs in different PCC cabinets.<br />
• A TCP/IP Ethernet connection to the site’s production LAN is required. If a<br />
connection does not already exist, the connection can be made through the HLR2-<br />
EDF Ethernet feature.<br />
Configure those components as follows:<br />
1. Power on or reboot the SCF workstation (master system console) in SDF online mode.<br />
2. Using SCMS, add a 4.5-MB-per-second block multiplexer channel input/output<br />
