Scaling from 2 to 3 frames

Prerequisites

Follow this procedure when scaling from two frames to three frames with one of the following configurations:

  • HPE Synergy 40Gb F8 Switch

  • HPE Virtual Connect SE 40Gb F8 Module for HPE Synergy (master) and the HPE Synergy 20Gb Interconnect Link Module (satellite)

Procedure
  1. Install and cable the satellite module in frame 3, bay 3:
    1. Place the satellite module into the frame 3, bay 3.
    2. Connect port L1 on the satellite module in frame 3, bay 3 to port L2 on the master module in frame 1, bay 3.
    3. Connect port L2 on the satellite module in frame 3, bay 3 to port L3 on the master module in frame 1, bay 3.
  2. Install and wire the satellite module in frame 3, bay 6:
    1. Place the satellite module into frame 3, bay 6.
    2. Connect port L1 on the satellite module in frame 3, bay 6 to port L2 on the master module in frame 2, bay 6.
    3. Connect port L2 on the satellite module in frame 3, bay 6 to port L3 on the master module in frame 2, bay 6.
