Technical data

TruCluster Server clusters using the preferred method of radial connection
with internal termination.
______________________ Note _______________________
The KZPSA-BB can be used in any configuration in place of the
KZPBA-CB. The use of the KZPSA-BB is not mentioned in this
chapter because it is not UltraSCSI hardware, and it cannot
operate at UltraSCSI speeds.
The use of the KZPSA-BB (and the KZPBA-CB) with external termination is
discussed in Chapter 9.
It is assumed that when you start to install the hardware necessary to create
a TruCluster Server configuration, you have sufficient storage to install the
TruCluster Server software, and that you have set up any RAID storagesets.
Follow the steps in Table 4–2 to start the procedure for TruCluster Server
hardware installation. You can save time by installing the Memory Channel
adapters, redundant network adapters (if applicable), and KZPBA-CB SCSI
adapters all at the same time.
Follow the directions in the referenced documentation, or the steps in the
referenced tables, returning to Table 4–2 when you have completed the steps
in the referenced table.
_____________________ Caution _____________________
Static electricity can damage modules and electronic components.
We recommend using a grounded antistatic wrist strap and a
grounded work surface when you handle modules.
