Oracle MaxRep Replication Engine Wiring Diagrams

Use the appropriate wiring diagram for your replication configuration to cable the Oracle MaxRep Replication Engine.

The wiring diagrams below represent the following Oracle MaxRep for SAN configurations:

Fibre Channel (FC) configuration
iSCSI configuration using RJ45 connectors
FC and iSCSI configuration using RJ45 connectors
iSCSI configuration using SFP or optical connectors
FC and iSCSI configuration using SFP or optical connectors

The following figure provides information on the cable connections with FC configuration.

Note: The dotted line in the following illustrations separate the Oracle FS System hardware from the customer environment.

5 Oracle FS System Controllers and Pilots (Drive Enclosures not shown)

Note: For FC configuration, both ports of HBA 1 are connected to the SAN fabric switch A and both ports of HBA 2 are connected to SAN fabric switch B. The ports ETH-0 and ETH-2 are Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) or 10 Gb/s auto-negotiated. The Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) port is 100 Bit Torrent (BT) auto-negotiated.

The following figure provides information on the cable connections with iSCSI configuration using RJ45 connectors.
