Planning Storage 2–5
The Model 2200 controller enclosure can be combined with the following:
■ Model 4214R disk enclosure — Ultra2 SCSI with 14 drive bays, single-bus I/O
module.
■ Model 4254 disk enclosure — Ultra2 SCSI with 14 drive bays, dual-bus I/O module.
NOTE: The Model 4214R uses the same storage maps as the Model 4314R, and the Model
4254 uses the same storage maps as the Model 4354R disk enclosures.
■
Model 4310R disk enclosure — Ultra3 SCSI with 10 drive bays, single-bus I/O
module. Figure 2–3 shows the addresses for each device in a six-shelf, single-bus
configuration. A maximum of six Model 4310R disk enclosures can be used with each
Model 2200 controller enclosure.
NOTE: The storage map for the Model 4310R reflects the disk enclosure’s physical location in
the rack. 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.
■
Model 4350R disk enclosure — Ultra3 SCSI with 10 drive bays, dual-bus I/O
module. Figure 2–4 shows the addresses for each device in a three-shelf, dual-bus
configuration. A maximum of three Model 4350R disk enclosures can be used with
each Model 2200 controller enclosure.
■ Model 4314R disk enclosure — Ultra3 SCSI with 14 drive bays, single-bus I/O
module. Figure 2–5 shows the addresses for each device in a six-shelf, single-bus
configuration. A maximum of six Model 4314R disk enclosures can be used with each
Model 2200 controller enclosure.
NOTE: The storage map for the Model 4314R reflects the disk enclosure’s physical location in
the rack. 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.
■
Model 4354R disk enclosure — Ultra3 SCSI with 14 drive bays, dual-bus I/O
module. Figure 2–6 shows the addresses for each device in a three-shelf, dual-bus
configuration. A maximum of three Model 4354R disk enclosures can be used with
each Model 2200 controller enclosure.
NOTE: Appendix A contains storageset profiles you can copy and use to create your own
system profiles. It also contains an enclosure template you can use to help you keep track of the
location of devices and storagesets in your shelves.
