Zoned storage—with two c-Class enclosures
This example illustrates cabling from
two
BladeSystem c-Class enclosures to
one
MDS600 storage
enclosure. In this configuration, note the following:
This example shows a dual-domain MDS600 with wide-port cabling. Dual-domain standard
cabling and single-domain devices are also supported.
Devices and quantities
MDS600 storage enclosures: 1
c7000 enclosures: 2
3Gb SAS BL Switches: 4 (2 in each c-Class
enclosure
Server blade types: half-height and full-height
Connection details
Top c7000, Switch in interconnect bay 5:
Port 1: to MDS600 drawer 2, primary I/O
module, port 1
Port 2: to MDS600 drawer 2, primary I/O
module, port 2
Top c7000, Switch in interconnect bay 6:
Port 1: to MDS600 drawer 2, secondary
I/O module, port 1
Port 2: to MDS600 drawer 2, secondary
I/O module, port 2
Bottom c7000, Switch in interconnect bay 5:
Port 1: to MDS600 drawer 1, primary I/O
module, port 1
Port 2: to MDS600 drawer 1, primary I/O
module, port 2
Top c7000, Switch in interconnect bay 6:
Port 1: to MDS600 drawer 1, secondary
I/O module, port 1
Port 2: to MDS600 drawer 1, secondary
I/O module, port 2
Notes
When connecting one MDS600 storage
enclosure to two BladeSystem c-Class
enclosures, each c-Class enclosure has
exclusive access to one of the MDS600
storage drawers.
As shown in this illustration, server bays 1–8
in the top c7000 may access MDS600
drawer 2 and server bays 1–8 in the bottom
c7000 may access MDS600 drawer 1. For
more information, see
“HP 3Gb SAS BL
Switch port information” (page 83)
