Cabling Your Cluster Hardware
Using Dual-Port Network Adapters
You can configure your cluster to use the public network as a failover for 
private network communications. If dual-port network adapters are used, do 
not use both ports simultaneously to support both the public and private 
networks. 
NIC Teaming
NIC teaming combines two or more NICs to provide load balancing and fault 
tolerance. Your cluster supports NIC teaming, but only in a public network; 
NIC teaming is not supported in a private network.
You should use the same brand of NICs in a team, and you cannot mix brands 
of teaming drivers.
Cabling the Storage Systems
This section provides information for connecting your cluster to a storage 
system in a direct-attached configuration, or to one or more storage systems 
in a SAN-attached configuration.
Cabling Storage for Your Direct-Attached Cluster
 
NOTE: 
Ensure that the management port on each storage processor is connected 
to the storage server with the management station, using an Ethernet network 
cable.
A direct-attached cluster configuration consists of redundant Fibre Channel 
host bus adapter (HBA) ports cabled directly to a Dell/EMC storage system. 
Direct-attached configurations are self-contained and do not share any 
physical resources with other server or storage systems outside of the cluster.
Figure 2-4 shows an example of a direct-attached, single cluster configuration 
with redundant HBA ports installed in each cluster node.
