Connecting Two Data Hosts Through a Zoned
Switch
Figure 3-5 shows a high-availability, dual-controller connection through a two-zone
switch. Each zone can be an independent switch (see Figure 3-4).

Connecting Remote Management Hosts
The management host directly manages systems out-of-band over an Ethernet
network. This section describes how to connect the Ethernet cables to the
management host.
1. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet management port on each controller.
2. Connect the other end of each Ethernet cable to a network that your management
host can access (preferably on the same subnet).
Next Steps
After you have connected the management host and data hosts, you are ready to
perform first-time configuration on the storage system as described in Chapter 4.
