When connecting to a dual-controller JBOD, it will display in "Show PD for:" of "/ Volume configuration / Physical disk". For example, Local, JBOD 1 (DSN6020), JBOD 2 (DSN-6020), ...etc. Local means disks in local controller, and so on. The hard drives in JBOD can be used as local disks. "/ Enclosure management / Hardware monitor" can display the hardware status of SAS JBODs. "/ Enclosure management / S.M.A.R.T." can display S.M.A.R.T. information of all PDs, including Local and all SAS JBODs. SAS JBOD expansion has some constraints as described in the followings: 1 User could create RAID group among multiple chassis, max number of disks in a single RAID group is 32. 2 Global spare disk can support all RAID groups which located in the different chassis. 3 When support SATA drives for the redundant JBOD model, the SATA bridge board is required. 4 The following table is the maximum JBOD numbers and maximum HDD numbers with different chassises can be cascaded.

Connecting JBOD
D-LINK
DSN-6000 series support up to 4 additional SAS/SATA JBODs for capacity
expansion. When connecting to a dual-controller JBOD, it will display in
“Show PD for:”
of
“/ Volume configuration / Physical disk”
. For example, Local, JBOD 1 (
DSN-
6020
), JBOD 2 (
DSN-6020
), …etc. Local means disks in local controller, and so on. The
hard drives in JBOD can be used as local disks.
“/ Enclosure management / Hardware monitor”
can display the hardware status of
SAS JBODs.
“/ Enclosure management / S.M.A.R.T.”
can display S.M.A.R.T. information of all PDs,
including Local and all SAS JBODs.
SAS JBOD expansion has some constraints as described in the followings:
1
User could create RAID group among multiple chassis, max number of disks in a
single RAID group is 32.
2
Global spare disk can support all RAID groups which located in the different chassis.
3
When support SATA drives for the redundant JBOD model, the SATA bridge board is
required.
