Property Definition
Enclosure ID Displays the enclosure ID assigned to the enclosure by Storage Management.
Storage Management numbers the enclosures attached to the controller
starting with zero. This number is the same as the enclosure ID number
reported by the omreport command. For information on Command Line
Interface, see the Server Administrator Command Line Interface User’s Guide.
Target ID Displays the SCSI ID of the backplane (internal to the server) or the enclosure
to which the controller connector is attached. The default value is six.
Configuration Displays the mode in which the enclosure is operating. Possible values are:
• Joined — Indicates that the enclosure is operating in the joined-bus mode.
• Split — Indicates that the enclosure is operating in the split-bus mode.
• Unified — Indicates that enclosure is operating in the unified mode.
• Clustered — Indicates that the enclosure is operating in cluster mode.
Clustered mode is only available on cluster-enabled RAID controllers. For
more information, see Background Initialization On PERC Controllers.
For more information on joined, split, and cluster modes, see the enclosure
hardware documentation. For information on how to cable the enclosure to
accommodate these different modes, see the enclosure hardware
documentation.
The bus configuration switch when toggled on a 220S or 221S enclosure, the
enclosure should be turned off. For more information, see Changing The Mode
On 220S And 221S Enclosures.

display Split Bus mode and not Joined Bus mode. Joined Bus or Clustered
modes may display when applicable in these circumstances.

version appears as upstream and downstream versions.
