3. Install the elements. Install the disk drives. Make sure you install blank panels
in any unused bays.
Fibre Channel cabling information is shown to illustrate supported
configurations. In a dual-bus disk enclosure configuration, disk enclosures 1,
2, and 3 are stacked below the controller enclosure—two SCSI Buses per
enclosure
(see Figure 27). In a single-bus disk enclosure configuration, disk
enclosures 6, 5, and 4 are stacked above the controller enclosure and disk
enclosures 1, 2, and 3 are stacked below the controller enclosure—one SCSI
Bus per enclosure (see Figure 28).
4. Connect the six VHDCI UltraSCSI bus cables between the controller and disk
enclosures, as shown in Figure 27 for a dual-bus system and Figure 28 for a
single-bus system. Note that the supported cable lengths are 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10
meters.
5. Connect the AC power cords from the appropriate rack AC outlets to the
controller and disk enclosures.
