Installing the SF7x Storage Enclosure in a DECarray Cabinet

6.6 Cabling the SF7x in a DECarray Cabinet

This section describes the step-by-step procedure for cabling the SF7x storage

enclosure to the existing DSSI bus conﬁguration of the DECarray.

Refer to Section 6.6.1 for instructions on cabling the SF7x storage enclosure

in a DECarray conﬁgured for single-system. Refer to Section 6.6.2 for

instructions on cabling the SF7x storage enclosure in a DECarray conﬁgured

for DSSI VAXcluster systems.

Once cabling of the DECarray is complete, each bus must be connected to

match one of the following eight buses. Figure 6–15 shows the ﬁve possible

single-system conﬁgurations, Figure 6–16 shows the three possible DSSI

VAXcluster conﬁgurations, and Figure 6–17 shows two possible stripeset

conﬁgurations.
