Viewing Enclosure Status and Attributes
CMC displays the health of the enclosure based on the physical components. Data of the enclosures attached to shared storage is

Reporting up to two Enclosures per Connector
Each External Shared PERC 8 card supports up to two enclosures per connector. However, there are two different configurations with
different restrictions. In a single PERC (non-fault tolerant) configuration you can connect up to two enclosures per card. Because of
redundant cabling, a Fault Tolerant External Shared PERC 8 card solution supports up to two enclosures per fault tolerant pair.
If more than two enclosures are detected on any connector, a warning message is logged to the chassis log. This affects chassis health
and provides an active alert or chassis log entry.
Setting Asset Tag and Asset Name of the Enclosure
To identify the enclosures, set the asset name and asset tag of the enclosures.
NOTE:
• Error is displayed if you enter an invalid value.
• Initially the value which is saved in the firmware is displayed.
• You must have Chassis Configuration Privileges to set asset tag and asset name of the enclosure.
• You can set Asset Tag and Asset Name only for external enclosures.
