Figure 2–1 shows an example of an AlphaServer GS60E system with seven
modules. The GS60E has seven slots, which will only allow for two logical parti-
tions. Two I/O modules are present, each attached to a DWLPB.
One DWLPB is shipped with the system. This DWLPB must be connected to
the I/O module in slot 8 of the TLSB. A second DWLPB with a KFE72-DA
adapter is needed to support logical partitions, to provide the connection to the
secondary console terminal. This DWLPB must be connected to any I/O module
other than the one in slot 8.
Two KZPBA-CA adapters are shown to support the two CD-ROM drives used as
console load devices for the two partitions.
If you wish to have floppy drives available for one or both partitions, you must
order two KFE72-LA adapters, one for each DWLPB.
