HyperScale X Reference Architecture can be setup with bonded interfaces using 4 10GigE ports per node as follows:
2 bonded ports for Data Protection network
2 bonded ports for internal/private Storage Pool network
Recommended: Deploying HyperScale X Reference Architecture with redundant networking is the recommended method for setting up the nodes.
Procedure
Deploying the nodes with redundant networking consists of the following steps:
Step | Description | Link |
|---|---|---|
Step 1: Setup the HyperScale X Reference Architecture Software | Download and setup the HyperScale X Reference Architecture software. | |
Step 2: Configure the bonded network | Setup up a bonded network by assigning IP addresses to the bonded interfaces in the nodes. | |
Step 3: Configure the block | A block consisting of 3 nodes must be setup to ensure that the correct nodes are identified and configured when the setup is run. | |
Step 4: Setup the nodes with Active-Backup bonding | Install and configure the nodes with active backup bonding. | Setting Up the Nodes With Active-Backup Bonding (Redundant Networking) |
