BL680 G7 adapter question

Prosenjit had a BL680c G7 question:

****************

BL680 G7 is having Six (6) embedded HP NC553i 10Gb FlexFabric adapter ports.

Does this mean that there are three dual port cards embedded ? I am checking in terms of failure of one card ( two ports ) should not hamper the other four ports.

Reply from Monty:

The Onboard Administrator 3.50 User Guide port mapping section contains the BL680c G7 port mapping information for the c7000 and c3000 enclosures.

There are three embedded 10Gb FlexFabric dual-port NICs and seven Mezzanine card slots in that server blade.

The BL680c G7 quickspec indicates these are NC553i ports.

******************

The loss of one LOM will not impact the others. Each LOM has a dual-port NIC. Any other questions?
