Configuration Rules
These rules must be applied when implementing the 2Gb
SANbloc Series configurations:
When daisy chaining, both 2Gb enclosures must be configured
identically.
1Gb and 2Gb systems cannot be daisy chained together.
Two LS modules and two I/O modules are required for dual
drive loops.
Cannot mix optical and copper I/O modules in the same
enclosure (both I/O Modules must be the same).
Cannot mix 1Gb and 2Gb LS and I/O modules, and 1Gb and
2Gb cables.
2Gb JBOD enclosures require 2Gb cables.
2Gb JBOD enclosures require 2Gb disk drives.
Disk drive blanks must be ordered for any empty drive slots.
