Cabling the Cluster Hardware 2-3
T
wo SDS 100 Storage Systems
Cabled to a Single RAID Controller
Connecting the cluster to two SDS 100 storage systems is
similar to connecting to a single SDS 100 storage system.
First, connect the channel 0 connector of each Power-
Edge Expandable RAID Controller to the back of the first
storage system, as described in the preceding section.
Then connect the channel 1 connector of each RAID con-
troller to the second storage system (see Figure 2-2).
