components of the disk array. CAUTION: Only your HP support representative can remove or replace hardware. XP24000 system architecture As Figure 2 shows, the basic XP24000 disk array consists of a DKC cabinet containing two main sections: a logic box and an HDD box. The logic box includes channel - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array Owner Guide (AE131-96081 - Page 20
Figure 2 XP24000 system architecture . XP20000 system architecture Figure 3 shows, the basic XP20000 disk array consists of three main sections: the power supply, a DKC, and a DKU. The power supply section consists of the AC-DC power supplies and battery boxes. The DKC consists of the channel - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array Owner Guide (AE131-96081 - Page 21
DKUs) To monitor and manage the array, a management server supplied by the customer is also required. The following figure shows the disk array with the maximum of four DKUs. The DKC alone constitutes the minimum configuration. Figure 4 Disk array frames . XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array Owner Guide 21 - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array Owner Guide (AE131-96081 - Page 22
frame The DKC controls the disk array. It contains the control panel, connection hardware, power supplies, SVP, and control boards for the disk array. It also contains up to 128 disk drives for the XP24000 and contains up to 120 disk drives for the XP20000. DKC clusters As the following figure - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array Owner Guide (AE131-96081 - Page 23
