Rear Cable Connections and Ports
The following figure shows the locations of cable connectors and ports on the back of
the Oracle Exadata Storage Server X5-2 High Capacity and the cables and devices that you would typically connect to
them.

|
1
|
Power supply 0 input power
|
The storage server has two power supply connectors, one for each power
supply.
Do not attach power cables to the power supplies until you have finished
connecting the data cables to the storage server. The storage server goes
into standby power mode, and the Oracle ILOM service processor initializes
when the AC power cables are connected to the power source. System messages
might be lost after 60 seconds if the storage server is not connected to a
terminal, PC, or workstation.
Note -
Oracle ILOM will signal a fault on any installed power supply that is
not connected to an AC power source, since it might indicate a loss of
redundancy.

Ethernet ports (NET 3, NET 2, NET 1, NET 0)
|
The four 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports enable you to connect the system to
the network. See Ethernet Ports for more information. |
|
4
|
USB ports (USB 0, USB 1)
|
The two USB ports support hot-plugging. You can connect and disconnect
USB cables and peripheral devices while the storage server is running
without affecting system operations.
|
|
5
|
Network management port (NET MGT)
|
The service processor NET MGT port is the optional connection to the
Oracle ILOM service processor. The NET MGT port is configured by default to
use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). The service processor NET
MGT port uses an RJ-45 cable for a 10/100/1000BASE-T connection.
|
|
6
|
Serial management port (SER MGT)
|
The service processor SER MGT port uses an RJ-45 cable and is the default
connection to the Oracle ILOM service processor. This port supports local
connections to the storage server and only recognizes Oracle ILOM
command-line interface (CLI) commands. Typically you connect a terminal or
terminal emulator to this port.
Note -
This port does not support network connections.
