Oracle ZFS Storage ZS3-2 Rear Panel Components

The Oracle ZFS Storage ZS3-2 controller PCIe slots and rear panel components are shown in the following figure.

For more information about PCIe cards, see Oracle ZFS Storage ZS3-2 PCIe I/O Cards in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Customer Service Manual, Release OS8.8.x.

1 SAS-2 internal HBA (slot 1)	2 4x4 SAS external HBA (slot 2)	3 PCIe slot 3
4 PCIe slot 4	5 PCIe slot 5	6 PCIe slot 6
7 AC power supplies PS1 (top), PS0 (bottom)	8 System status LEDs	9 USB 2.0 ports
10 SP 15-pin VGA video port	11 Serial management port	12 Network management (NET MGT) 10/100 BASE-T Ethernet port
13 Alarm port, DB-15 connector (not used for the ZS3-2)	14-16 Cluster I/O ports	17 10-Gbit Ethernet ports
18 Chassis ground post

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.

  

  The LEDs located above each NET port are Link/Activity (left) and Speed (right) indicators for each port as described in this table:

  Connection Type	EEE Terminology	Speed LED Color	Transfer Rate
  Fast Ethernet	100BASE-TX	Off	100 Mbits/sec
  Gigabit Ethernet	1000BASE-T	Amber	1000 Mbits/sec
  10 Gigabit Ethernet	10GBASE-T	Green	10000 Mbits/sec

• 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.

  

• HBA Ports - The 4x4 SAS HBA, installed in PCIe slot 2 of the ZS3-2, provides connectivity to external disk shelves. The HBA logical ports are numbered 0-3, left to right, as shown in the following illustration:
