Configuring Information
Up to two PCI-to-System Area Network adapters (CCMAB-AA) are supported in a single system.
Two-node clusters can be configured by ordering a CCMAB-AA for each node and one BN39B-04 or BN39B-10
cable; cable connects directly to CCMAB-AA in each node.
Two-node clusters can also be configured by ordering two CCMAB-AA adapters for each node and two BN39B-04
or BN39B-10 cables; cables connect directly to CCMAB-AA in each node.
For a two-node cluster that will not need to be rebooted when adding additional members, order one CCMAB-AA
adapter and one BN39B-04 or BN39B-10 cable for each node, and one CCMHB-AA hub for the cluster.
For three- or four- node clusters, order one CCMAB-AA adapter and one
BN39B-04 or BN39B-10 cable for each node, and one CCMHB-AA hub for the cluster. If two CCMAB-AAs are
configured in each system, a second CCMHB-AA is required.
CCMHB-AA includes four CCMLB-AA line cards and supports up to four nodes; expansion up to eight system nodes
can be achieved by adding up to four CCMLB-AA line cards.
If nodes must be separated by a distance longer than standard copper cables allow the CCMFB option converts the
output of the standard CCMAB controller or CCMLB line card to single-mode fiber optic cable. The fiber optic
connection may be up to 2,000 meters long between two CCMAB controllers connected in virtual hub mode, or
3,000 meters between a CCMAB controller and a CCMHB hub. (The connection from the CCMHB hub to a second
system may also be 3,000 meters.) The CCMFB option requires a second PCI slot in the system from which it draws
power only. It is normally connected to the corresponding CCMAB controller with the short BN39B-01 cable. The
CCMFB is also used in the CCMHB hub where it occupies a slot normally used by the CCMLB line card, limiting
expansion to four radial fiber optic connections.
CCMHB-BA hub expansion box provides additional slots for up to eight fiber optic connections. Two standard
length single-mode fiber optic cables are available (BN34R-10 and BN34R-31); however, users normally provide
this fiber optic connection. Fiber optic connectivity is completely transparent to the systems using it and has no
performance impact.

NOTE:
When configuring Model 1B or Model 1, Model 2B or Model 2 with two Memory Channel Controllers (CCMAB-
AA) installed in hose 0 only, all nodes in a Memory Channel cluster must have the window size jumper set to the same size,
specifically 128. When configuring Model 3B or Model 3 with two Memory Channel Controllers (CCMAB-AA), all nodes in
a Memory Channel cluster must have the window size jumper set to the same size, specifically 512 or 128; Memory Channel
Hub must be installed on a different hose (hose 0, 1, or 2). Refer to the TruCluster QuickSpecs for Memory Channel details.
