The BL2x220c Blade has a different I/O mapping for server I/O ports to expansion bays than existing half-height servers. The
BL2x220c contains 2 server nodes that share a single half-height bay. Each server has 2x 1-Gbit Ethernet ports, so each half-height
bay must therefore support 4 1Gbit Ethernet connections to the Interconnect bays. Full access to all embedded Ethernet ports
therefore requires 64 Ethernet connections in the HP BladeSystem c7000 Enclosure or 16 Ethernet connections in the HP
BladeSystem c3000 Enclosure. Single server half-height devices, such as the HP ProLiant BL460c and HP ProLiant BL465c Server
Blades, only require 32 connections (c7000) and 16 connections (c3000).
As each Ethernet Interconnect device only supports 16 downlinks to the servers it is necessary to dedicate additional bays to Ethernet.
To gain access to all embedded Ethernet connections users must install 4 Ethernet Interconnects in Bays 1,2,3,4 for the c7000
enclosure and 2 Ethernet Interconnects in Bays 1 & 2 in the c3000 enclosure.
When installing a BL2x220c into an existing enclosure the following rules must be followed otherwise the Blade will not boot due to
an e-keying error.
