Systems

PCI Configuration Guidelines	Modules designed for 5.0V signaling and 33-MHz bus speed can only operate in 5.0V/33-MHz slots (slots 5 and 6). A maximum of two 5V modules can be installed in the system. Modules designed for 3.3 V signaling and 66-MHz bus speed can only operate in 66-MHz slots (slots 1, 2, 3, 4). Universal PCI modules can operate in all slots (3.3V and 5.0V). Universal PCI modules can operate at a maximum bus speed of 33 MHz or 66 MHz. Universal PCI modules operating at 33 MHz placed in a 66-MHz slot will reduce the entire hose to operate at 33 MHz. Universal PCI modules capable of operating at 66 MHz when placed in a 33-MHz slot will operate at 33 MHz.
	PCI Module Descriptions: PCI modules listed in this document as 33 MHz or 66 MHz refers to the module's maximum PCI bus speed.
	Modules that can only operate at 5V are designated as 5V – 33-MHz modules. Universal PCI modules are designated as 3.3/5V and can be installed into 33-MHz or 66-MHz slots.
	The AlphaServer DS25 provides three PCI buses (hoses) that drive the six slots. A fourth hose drives the on-board Gbit Ethernet and dual channel Ultra3 SCSI adapter. Hose 0 – 33 MHz driving slots 5 and 6 Hose 3 – 66 MHz driving slots 3 and 4 Hose 1 – 66 MHz driving slots 1 and 2 The DS25 PCI bus and slot specifications follow:

PCI Slot	PCI Bus Speed	Signal Voltage	PCI Hose Number
1	66 MHz	3.3V	1
2	66 MHz	3.3V	1
3	66 MHz	3.3V	3
4	66 MHz	3.3V	3
5	33 MHz	5.0V	0
6	33 MHz	5.0V	0

Step 12 – MEMORY CHANNEL – Optional

Tru64 UNIX Systems (V5.1A)	Each system node in the cluster requires a TruCluster software license (QL-6BRAC-AA) or TruCluster Plus Software Package (QP-6R9AC-AA)

OpenVMS Systems	OpenVMS V7.3-1 and OpenVMS Cluster license (QL-MUZAC-AA) are required

Configuring Information	Memory Channel adapters (CCMAB-BA) must be configured in 5-volt PCI slots. Up to two PCI-to-System Area Network adapters (CCMAB-BA) are supported in a single system. Two-node clusters can be configured by ordering a CCMAB-BA for each node and one BN39B-04 or BN39B-10 cable; cable connects directly to CCMAB-BA in each node. For a two-node cluster that will not need to be rebooted when adding additional members, order one CCMAB-BA adapter and one BN39B-04 or BN39B-10 cable for each node, and one CCMHB-AA hub for the cluster. For three- or four- node clusters, order one CCMAB-BA adapter and one BN39B-04 or BN39B-10 cable for each node, and one CCMHB-AA hub for the cluster. If two CCMAB-BAs are configured in each system, a second CCMHB-AA is required. CCMHB-AA includes four CCMLB-AA line cards and supports up to four nodes; expansion up to eight system nodes can be achieved by adding up to four CCMLB-AA line cards. If nodes must be separated by a distance longer than standard copper cables allow the CCMFB option converts the output of the standard CCMAB controller or CCMLB line card to single-mode fiber optic cable. The fiber optic connection may be up to 2,000 meters long between two CCMAB controllers connected in virtual hub mode, or 3,000 meters between a CCMAB controller and a CCMHB hub. (The connection from the CCMHB hub to a second system may also be 3,000 meters.) The CCMFB option requires a second PCI slot in the system from which it draws power only. It is normally connected to the corresponding CCMAB controller with the short BN39B-01 cable. The CCMFB is also used in the CCMHB hub where it occupies a slot normally used by the CCMLB line card, limiting expansion to four radial fiber optic connections. CCMHB-BA hub expansion box provides additional slots for up to eight fiber optic connections. Two standard length single-mode fiber optic cables are available (BN34R-10 and BN34R-31); however, users normally provide this fiber optic connection. Fiber optic connectivity is completely transparent to the systems using it and has no performance impact. NOTE: When configuring with two Memory Channel Controllers (CCMAB-BA), all nodes in a Memory Channel cluster must have the window size jumper set to the same size, specifically 128
