Note:
When connecting any multi-initiator configuration that includes dual SAS adapters, ensure
that all of the same disk devices are attached to both adapters and that the disk devices are cabled
to the same numbered ports on each adapter.
v
To cable a configuration that includes two hard-disk-drive partitions, nine disks per
hard-disk-drive partition, and a dual SAS adapter pair with connectivity to all drives, go to step
1b.
Notes:
– This is a multi-initiator high-availability configuration.
– This configuration can be used with the following operating systems: AIX, IBM i, Linux
v
To cable a configuration that includes one hard-disk-drive partition, 18 disks, and one SAS
adapter, go to step 1c on page 20.
Note:
This configuration can be used with the following operating systems: AIX, Linux
v
To cable a configuration that includes two hard-disk-drive partitions, nine disks per
hard-disk-drive partition, and one SAS adapter, go to step 1d on page 21.
Note:
This configuration can be used with the following operating systems: AIX, IBM i, Linux
v
To cable a configuration that includes two hard-disk-drive partitions, nine disks per
hard-disk-drive partition, and two SAS adapters, go to step 1e on page 22.
Note:
This configuration can be used with the following operating systems: AIX, IBM i, Linux
v
To cable a configuration that includes two hard-disk-drive partitions, nine disks per
hard-disk-drive partition, a dual SAS adapter pair per hard-disk-drive partition that controls the
disks in the partition, and dual SAS connectivity to all drives, go to step 1f on page 22.
Notes:
– This is a multi-initiator high-availability configuration.
– This configuration can be used with the following operating systems: AIX, IBM i, Linux
v
To cable a configuration that includes one hard-disk-drive partition, 18 disks, and a dual SAS
adapter pair with connectivity to all drives, go to step 1g on page 23.
Notes:
– This is a multi-initiator high-availability configuration.
– This configuration can be used with the following operating systems: AIX, Linux
v
To cable a configuration that includes four hard-disk-drive partitions, 18 disks, and one SAS
adapter per hard-disk-drive partition, go to step 1h on page 24.
Notes:
– The 18 disks in this configuration are divided among the four hard-disk-drive partitions as
follows:
- Partition 1: Disk drives 01 - 05.
- Partition 2: Disk drives 06 - 09.
- Partition 3: Disk drives 10 - 14.
- Partition 4: Disk drives 15 - 18.
– This configuration is optimized for boot partitions.
– This configuration can be used with the following operating systems: AIX, Linux
b.
Complete the following steps to cable a configuration that includes two hard-disk-drive partitions,
nine disks per hard-disk-drive partition, and a dual SAS adapter pair with connectivity to all
drives.
