EMC VNX VG2/VG8 Gateway Configuration Setup Guide

Before Installing

EMC CONFIDENTIAL

Identifying blades

and I/O modules

Each blade (also called a Data Mover) in an VG2/VG8 system has one CPU module

and one or more I/O modules to provide backend and frontend connectivity. A

management module provides ports for communication between the Control Stations

and the blades.

Fibre Channel I/O

modules

A Fibre Channel (FC) I/O module in slot 0 of each blade provides two ports for either

direct-connecting to the back-end storage array or connecting to an FC switch or tape

backup device (Figure 12).

Two versions of this module support fibre speeds of either:

◆ 1, 2, or 4 Gb/s

◆ 2, 4, or 8 Gb/s

The default configuration includes the 2/4/8 Gb/s version of this module.
