Technical data

______________________ Note _______________________
The RA3000 is supported on a shared SCSI bus only with the
KZPBA-CB UltraSCSI host bus adapter.
Table 10–4 provides the steps necessary to connect TruCluster Server
member systems to an RA3000 storage subsystem using external
termination and Y cables.
Table 10–4: Installing Cables for RA3000 Configuration Using External
Termination and Y Cables
Action Refer to:
Install SCSI bus cables:
RA3000 pedestal with active/passive failover: Install
a BN38C HD68 to VHDCI cable between the BN21W-0B Y
cable of one member system and the RA3000 Host 0 port.

Install a BN21K, BN21L, or BN31G cable between the
BN21W-0B Y cables of all other member systems.
b
RA3000 controller shelf with active/passive failover:
Install a BN38C HD68 to VHDCI cable between the
BN21W-0B Y cable of one member system and the
RA3000 Host 0 I/O module Host In port.

b
RA3000 controller shelf with active/active or
active/passive failover: Install a BN38C HD68 to VHDCI
cable between the BN21W-0B Y cable of one member system
and the RA3000 Host 0 I/O module Host In connection.

Install a BN37A-0E 50-centimeter (19.7-inch) VHDCI cable
between the RA3000 controller shelf Host 0 I/O module Host
Out port and the Host 1 I/O module Host In port.
Install a BN21K, BN21L, or BN31G cable between the
BN21W-0B Y cables of all other member systems.
b
RA3000 mid-bus controller shelf with active/active or
active/passive failover: Install a BN38C HD68 to VHDCI
cable between the BN21W-0B Y cable of one member system
and the RA3000 Host 0 I/O module Host In connection.
Install a second BN38C HD68 to VHDCI cable between
the BN21W-0B Y cable of another member system and
the RA3000 Host 1 I/O module Host Out connection. This
disables the termination on the Host 1 I/O module.
