For the DuraStor 7320SS, see
Basic Connections –
DuraStor 7320SS
on page 2-21
.
Basic Connections – DuraStor 6320SS
Note:
This section provides cabling information for basic
topologies. For more advanced topology information, see
Appendix C,
Advanced Configurations and Cabling
. See
Appendix A,
Theory of Controller Operation
for descriptions of
each operating mode.
1
Install your host bus adapter(s) into the host system(s). Refer to
your HBA user’s guide for specific details.
2
Enable multiple LUN support. Make sure that your host
operating system is properly configured to support this feature.
Refer to your host operating system’s documentation for
instructions.
3
Connect the SCSI data cables. Refer to the topology described
for your installation on the following pages, and cable your
system based on the diagrams shown.
a
Connect the required SCSI data cable(s) to the host system’s
SCSI host bus adapter port connector(s).
b
Connect the other end of the SCSI data cable(s) to the storage
enclosure Host Channel ports on the host I/O card(s) as
indicated.
