Note:

The three Cluster I/O ports (0, 1, and GigE) are reserved for cluster interconnection only.

The Oracle ZFS Storage ZS3-2 controller has the following ports:

  • Ethernet Ports - Oracle ZFS Storage ZS3-2 has four RJ-45 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) network connectors, labeled NET 3, NET 2, NET 1, and NET 0 (left to right) on the rear panel. The ports operate at 100 Mbits/sec, 1000 Mbits/sec, or 10-Gbits/sec. Use these ports to connect the appliance to the network.

  • Cluster I/O Ports - Two cluster serial ports (0 and 1) and one Ethernet port provide communication between two controllers to form a cluster configuration. For information about how to connect cables to form a cluster, see Connecting Disk Shelf Cables.

    Caution:

    When disconnecting an RJ-45 cable from a cluster serial port (0 and 1), use extreme care not to damage the internal RJ-45 receptacle. To properly disconnect an RJ-45 cable from a cluster serial port, see Disconnecting an RJ-45 Cable.

  • Network Management Port - The network management connector (NET MGT) is an RJ-45 10/100 BASE-T Ethernet port and provides an alternate terminal interface to the SP console.

  • Serial Management Port - The serial management connector (SER MGT) is an RJ-45 port and provides a terminal connection to the service processor (SP) console.
