ZS5-4 PCIe Card Configuration

The eleven PCIe slots are located inside the controller at the back. As viewed from the front of the controller, the slots are divided into two groups, a group of six on the right of the SP card and a group of five on the left of the SP card. The slots are designated from right to left. The six slots on the right side are designated as PCI-1 to PCI-6. The five slots on the left are designated as PCI-7 to PCI-11.

PCIe Slot Length and Capabilities

The controller contains eleven low-profile PCIe 2.0 card slots, which have the following length and capabilities:

• Slots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9 and 10 have x8 connectors (x8 electrical interface)

• Slots 8 and 11 have x16 connectors (x8 or x16 electrical interface)

PCIe Card Slot Population Order

Each base unit ZS5-4 is always loaded with the following HBAs in the following PCIe slots:

• Slot 2: Internal SAS-3 HBA

• Slot 4: Cluster interface card

• Slot 6: 4x4 SAS HBA

• Slot 7: 4x4 SAS HBA

All allowable option ZS5-4 PCIe cards should be installed in the remaining card slot locations and filled in accordance to the following priority and sequence as follows:

1. Install additional 4x4 SAS HBA cards into slot 9, then slot 3.

2. Install optional dual port QDR InfiniBand (IB) cards into slot 11, then slot 8, then slot 5, then slot 1, then slot 10, then slot 3, then slot 9.

3. Install optional dual port 40GbE NIC cards into slot 11, then slot 8, then slot 5, then slot 1, then slot 10, then slot 3, then slot 9.

4. Install optional dual port 16Gb FC HBA cards into slot 11, then slot 8, then slot 5, then slot 1, then slot 10, then slot 3, then slot 9.

5. Install optional dual port 10GbE SFP+NIC cards into slot 11, then slot 8, then slot 5, then slot 1, then slot 10, then slot 3, then slot 9.

6. Install optional dual port 10GBase-T NIC cards into slot 11, then slot 8, then slot 5, then slot 1, then slot 10, then slot 3, then slot 9.
