OL-8787-05 Cable Requirements Cable Distances When planning the location of the switches, consider the distance limitations for signaling, EMI, and connector compatibility. It is recommended that the user does not exceed specified transmission rate and distance limits. Note Building and electrical codes vary depending on the location. Comply with all code specifications when planning the site and installing cable. When running cables to the equipment, consider the following: • Do not run cables where they can be stepped on or rolled over. • Be sure cables are intact with no cuts, bends, or nicks. • If the user is making a cable, ensure that the cable is properly crimped. • Provide proper strain relief for standard IB cables. • Support cable using a cable manager mounted above connectors to avoid unnecessary weight on the cable bundles. • Bundle cable using velcro straps to avoid injuring cables. • Keep all ports and connectors free of dust. • Untwisted Pair (UTP) cables can build up Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) charges when being pulled into a new installation. Before installing category 5 UTP cables, discharge ESD from the cable by plugging it into a port on a system that is not powered on. • When required for safety and fire rating requirements, plenum-rated cable can be used. Check the local building codes to determine when it is appropriate to use plenum-rated cable, or refer to IEC standard 850. Uninterruptible Power Supply Consider the following when selecting Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) equipment: • The minimum amperage requirements for a UPS: – Calculate VA (Volt-Amps): Locate the voltage and amperage requirements for each piece of equipment (usually located on a sticker on the back or bottom of the equipment). Multiply the numbers together to get VA. – Add the VA from each piece of equipment together to find the total VA requirement. Then add 30% to determine the minimum amperage requirements for the UPS. • Transition time (the time necessary for the UPS to transfer from utility power to full-load battery power). • The longest potential time period the UPS might be required to supply backup power. • Whether or not the UPS unit also provides online protection.

OL-8787-05 Installation Tasks Checklist To perform the actual switch installation, the site implementation engineer must perform the following tasks, which are detailed in this section. Caution Be sure to review the Safety Information on page 1-9 before starting the installation and during the installation process. Check the installation site to verify the installation of cabinet power feeds, rails, and grounding. Step 1 Unpack the equipment and inspect for any shipping damage. Any shipping damage should be reported to the shipping company. Step 2 Verify that the equipment shipped matches the packing list. Step 3 Mark the rack and install the mounting rails. Step 4 Physically install the switch in the rack. Safety Information The following safety guidelines are provided to ensure both personal safety for the user and to protect the system from potential damage. These precautions cover the following categories: • Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products • Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge • Electrical Safety Precautions Precautions fit into one of three categories: Note A textual callout designed to emphasize: – Tasks of particular importance. – Tips and reminders to maximize the use of the equipment. Caution Potential for damage to system equipment. Damage to the system caused by the user may have potential warranty implications. Warning Potential for personal injury. Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products Warning Installing system components in a rack without the front and side stabilizers installed could cause the rack to tip over. Therefore, always install the stabilizers before installing components in the rack.

Cisco SFS 7012 InfiniBand Server Switch Hardware Users Guide

OL-8787-05 Warning After installing system components in a rack never pull more than one component at one time out of the rack on its slide assemblies. The weight of more than one extended component could cause the rack to tip over. Warning Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a rack. Warning The chassis, when fully populated with leaf modules, spine modules, power and fan supplies, is very heavy (approximately 100 lbs.). It is recommended that a lifting device be used to handle a fully loaded chassis. Caution Always load the rack from the bottom up, loading the heaviest item first. Caution Make sure the rack is level and stable before extending any component from the rack. Note Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components of the rack. Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge Caution Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge. Caution Static electricity can harm delicate components inside the system. To prevent ESD damage, users need discharge any static electricity from their bodies before touching any electronic components. Touching an unpainted metal surface will discharge static electricity. Caution When transporting an ESD sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging. Electrical Safety Precautions Warning Do not work alone when working with high voltage components. Warning This unit may have more than one power cord. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both cords before servicing the unit.

OL-8787-05 Step 1 On the switch fan side, insert the notches on the top of the fascia into the two slots on the chassis frame. Snap the bottom of the faceplate in place. Removing a Module or Blank The handles are self-locking. To unlock, push up on the handles to disengage from the lock notch. Then gently pull the handles out and slide the module out of the slot. Note If removing, but not replacing a module, remember to replace with a module blank. All slots must be either populated with a module or have blanks for EMI and thermal integrity. Installing the Spine and Leaf Modules Note The purchased configuration for the SFS 7012 is shipped fully populated. Follow these steps when it becomes necessary to install or replace spine modules and leaf modules. Step 1 Remove the necessary spine modules, spine module blanks, leaf modules, and leaf module blanks. For detailed instructions, please refer to the section Removing a Module or Blank, page 1-17. Note If the user is only adding additional modules, remove only the blank(s) for the slot(s) to be populated. These will not be replaced. Step 1 When placing the spine modules and leaf modules into chassis slots, the following recommendations apply: a. Spine Modules — It is recommended that the spine module(s) be installed into: – Slot 1 for managed. For redundant management, populate slots 1 and 2 with management-capable spines. – Slot 3 for unmanaged. Refer to Figure 1-6 below:

OL-8787-05 Figure 1-6 SFS 7012 Chassis — Spine Module Slot Numbering b. Leaf Modules— Leaf modules should be populated beginning with slot 1, then slot 2, then slots 3 through 12 respectively. Refer to Figure 1-7: Figure 1-7 SFS 7012 Chassis — Leaf Module Slot Numbering Step 2 To install a module or filler, hold it so that the ejector handles are on the bottom. Step 3 Pull the handles out to extend them. Slide the module into the appropriate slot of the chassis until it makes contact with the backplane. As the module seats in the chassis, the handles will begin to close. Step 4 Push the handles in to fully close. Note Be sure that all cards are fully inserted in their respective chassis slots, and that the handles are in the locked position. This prevents accidental removal, provides proper grounding for the system, and helps to seat the bus connectors in the backplane receptacles. Connect Equipment to the Ports and Power On the System Note Before performing the tasks in this section, take a few minutes to review Figure 1-8 and Figure 1-9 below. It is important to understand the slot numbering for the leaf modules and spine modules (and the corresponding spine RJ-45 ports). It is also important to understand the slot numbering for the fans and power supplies (and the corresponding AC power inlets for the power supplies).

Connect the other end of the Cat 5/6 to the OOB LAN workstation. Refer to Figure 1-9 for which RJ-45 connector(s) to use: Step 2 Connect the switch to IB-enabled hosts using 4X-to-4X IB cables. Note Make sure all cables latch securely into the corresponding port connectors. If the IB cable connector is not properly oriented to fit onto the port receptacle (i.e., while attempting to insert the cable in the port), do not twist the connector to achieve the correct orientation. Instead, reach back a few feet on the cable, and twist the bulk cable to allow the connector to rotate to the proper orientation. Doing this prevents all of the rotational forces from acting right at the connector terminations. Caution It is important to provide strain relief for the IB cable connector.

OL-8787-05 Step 13 Enter the new switch default gateway IP address. Step 14 Click Apply. Note A reboot is required to activate the new gateway IP address. Updating Management Spine IP Addresses in a Redundant Management Configuration Note This procedure should be performed the first time the SFS 7012 is powered on. Each managed spine must have a unique IP address that is different than the chassis IP address of the SFS 7012. Therefore, a redundantly-managed SFS 7012 will have three (3) unique IP addresses. The current default IP addresses are: – Chassis: 192.168.100.9 – Spine 1: 192.168.100.11 – Spine 2: 192.168.100.12 It is necessary for each managed spine to have a unique IP address for the following reasons: • Unique IP addresses are used when sending syslog messages from a managed spine to a syslog server. • Gives the user the ability to ping each management spine separately. • If the IP addresses are not unique, collisions will occur, causing IP operations to fail. To update the IP address on a managed spine, do the following: Step 1 Ensure that the spine module is connected to a COM port on a serial terminal device via the RS-232 port. Step 2 Get to a [boot]: prompt by following Step a or b. a. If the managed spine is running, enter the following command at the console: reboot Then press Enter. b. If the managed spine is not running, power on the switch. Step 3 After selecting image1 or image2, press the Spacebar to interrupt the auto load sequence before the counter expires (within 5 seconds). Step 4 At the [boot]: prompt enter the new spine IP address with the following syntax: spineip Then press Enter.

Shutdown Procedures In order to shutdown the SFS 7012: Step 1 Power down the switch by removing the power cords from the AC power inlets. Hot Swapping Components Hot Swapping Spine and Leaf Modules Note Following are the general guidelines for hot swapping leaf and spine modules: Caution Be certain that the managed spine to be hot swapped is a that same firmware level as all other components in the SFS 7012. A hot swap of a managed spine with another firmware level will cause a disruptive reboot (i.e., I/O traffic is interrupted).

Cisco SFS 7012 InfiniBand Server Switch Hardware Users Guide

OL-8787-05 • Hot swap one module at a time, allowing the chassis to completely update it before hot-swapping the next module. The module update is complete when it becomes visible within the Chassis Viewer GUI. Listed below are the approximate times to fully update each module type: – Spines modules: up to 4 minutes – Leaf modules: up to 2 minutes • When a management spine is hot swapped, the rest of the chassis will continue to move packets without interruption. • There is no need to reboot the chassis when replacing either a spine or leaf module. Step 1 Remove the module by pushing up on the handles to disengage from the lock notch. Once the handles are disengaged, gently pull the handles out and slide the module out of the slot. Step 2 To install a module, hold it so that the ejector handles are on the bottom. Step 3 Pull the handles out to extend them. Slide the module into the appropriate slot of the chassis until it makes contact with the backplane. As the module seats in the chassis, the handles will begin to close. Step 4 Push the handles in to fully close. Hot Swapping the Fan Unit Step 1 Loosen the captive panel screw. Step 2 Pull the panel screw down to partially disengage the unit. Step 3 Slowly pull the unit. The unit will disengage from the connector. Step 4 Carefully slide the fan out until it is completely removed from its slot.

Port Statistics Field Descriptions Port Name/Port Number: Corresponds to external leaf module number/port number, spine module number/port number, and all interswtich links. Link State: Indicates whether the InfiniBand link associated with the physical port is up or down. Possible values are no state change, down, init, armed, active, and unknown. Physical State: Indicates whether the internal connection to the InfiniBand port is up or down. Possible values are No State Change, Sleep, Polling, Disabled, Training, Up, and Error Recovery. Link Down Default: Indicates the default down state as set by the subnet manager. Possible values are No State Change, Sleep, Polling, and Unknown. Active Link Width: Indicates the number of full duplex serial links that are currently being used on a port. The current bandwidth capability of a port is determined by multiplying this value by the Active Link Speed of this port. For instance a 4X DDR link has a bandwidth capability of 20Gb/s. Note Values of 1X are possible in this field with 4X IB cables if poor cable connections or defective 4X IB cables are used. Link Width Enabled: Link Width Enabled is the allowed link width(s) that a port can arbitrate to. Normally, this defaults to the Link Width Supported value, but can be overridden by the subnet manager. Link Width Supported: Indicates the link width in terms of multipliers of 2.5 Gbit/sec full duplex serial links supported by the port. Active Link Speed: Indicates the speed of the full duplex serial link. This is either 2.5Gbps (single data rate, or SDR), or 5.0Gbps (double data rate, or DDR). Link Speed enabled: Link Speed Enabled is the allowed link speed(s) that a port can arbitrate to. Normally this defaults to the Link Speed Supported value, but can be overridden by the subnet manager. Link Speed supported: The supported link speed of the port. This could be 2.5Gbps (SDR), 5.0Gbps (DDR) or both.

OL-8787-05 A P P E N D I X B Command Line Interface This appendix includes the following information: • Commands and Functional Groups, page B-2 • Accessing the CLI, page B-3 • Groups and Commands, page B-4 Overview This section details the usage of the Command Line Interface (CLI) feature for the Cisco SFS 7012™. The CLI allows the user to perform remote configuration and management tasks, which in many respects mirrors the functionality of the Chassis Viewer GUI. The CLI is accessed via a terminal attached to the SFS 7012 spine module(s) RS232 port(s) or via the OOB management port using Telnet and secure shell (SSH). For a standalone SFS 7012, the user would Telnet to the unit's IP address(es). Once connected, the CLI works as any telnet session does. To access the CLI, a login and password is required. There are two user modes, operator and administrator with the following access privileges: Operator: – Read only access. Administrator: – Read and write Access. – Reboot access. – Can change operator and administrator passwords. – Can disable user login and passwords. This would allow all users administrator-level access without the need for a user name or password. – Can view all current user sessions – Can access all of the commands executed from any open operator session. – Can log out any open user sessions – Can send messages to the open user sessions The CLI allows multiple users to be logged in simultaneously. However, some commands will be locked to a user(s) if another user is executing the same command.

Cisco SFS 7012 InfiniBand Server Switch Hardware Users Guide

OL-8787-05 The CLI is also accessible through the RS232 serial port of the SFS 7012. Providing access through the serial port means that users will always have access to the SFS 7012, even if Telnet and SSH are not functioning. Commands and Functional Groups The list of available commands can be accessed by typing list. To keep the list short, the commands are grouped into functional groups, which are: General: General administrative commands Deprecated: Commands that have been deprecated. Note The Deprecated group contains CLI commands that been replaced or are to be removed. Please use the new command where appropriate. Chassis: Provides commands for configuring and managing chassis-level functionality. This includes commands for changing the SFS 7012 IP address, and displaying fan tray, power supply, and FRU information. Network: General network commands. Firmware: Provides commands for updating the firmware via a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server or Secure Copy Protocol (SCP) (if using SSH to access the SFS 7012). The SFS 7012 has the ability to store the location of the firmware files for future upgrades. Additionally, the Firmware functional group includes commands for viewing the current firmware revisions and for changing the boot image. SubnetManagement: InfiniBand subnet manager configuration and management. Log: Provides commands for viewing log files as well as configuring logging parameters. This includes commands for changing the SFS 7012 IP address, and displaying fan tray, power supply, and FRU information. KeyManagement: Provides commands for adding, removing and displaying license keys on the SFS 7012. IbSwitchInfo: Provides commands for displaying InfiniBand (IB) statistics for all IB ports on the SFS 7012.
