Re: media for the heartbeat connection in SG
To be specific, I have A6847 Fibre Gig lan card, I'm going to use Fibre cable to directly connect these two nodes .Is this right?

SolutionSeems like somewhat of a waste to use Gig-E for heartbeats, but you can certainly do it.
Just remember to hook the Tx of one to the Rx of the other if you're directly connecting them.

Re: media for the heartbeat connection in SG
It may be that you have a "caddy" that forces the left/right orientation, but it can be removed & the fibres oriented as you wish.
But I also "think" that the Gig-E fibre spec allows for auto-sync anyway, so it may not make a difference.
Rgds,
Jeff

Re: media for the heartbeat connection in SG
It is best to plug into a switch (well - for rendundacy - 2 switches).

Re: media for the heartbeat connection in SG
I will advised you to have a pair of redundant heartbeat communication. It can be a Ethernet or FC, depends how would you manage with the cost. FC is always better and reliable. If u have multi cluster environment go with redundant switches instead of cross cable connectivity.
