HP Blade C3000 & Cisco 3020 questions

$

Hi There,

 

I have been trying to set-up my first blade system and have a couple of questions that I can’t seem to find the answers too.

 

My blade system is a C3000, with 2 x Cisco 3020,  and 8 x BL460c G7's I want to install Ubtuntu 13.04 LTS, and run HPCC and want to ensure high abvailability.

 

  1. Can the Cisco 3020 be configured for high availability? For example can I port map each of the blade servers’ NIC’s to each switch? then team them so that they continue to run in the event of a hardware failure?
  2. Can the Port mapping be configured from the Blade server OA? or do I need to add mezzanine card to give each blade two more NIC’s?
  3. Does the Cisco 3020 have Web management built into the firmware? I am currently running : flash:/cbs30x0-ipbasek9-mz.122-55.SE5.bin and I am not sure if that has the Web management. or not after looking here :
  4. https://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=280348753&flowid=7449&softwareid=280805680&release=15.0.2-SE8&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=MD&reltype=latest

 

Any advise or pointers would be greatly apprecaited as I am still trying to get a coomplete understanding of how a blade system works.

 

Thanks

 

Antony
