P2000 G3 SAS MSA single-controller, single-domain, standard cabling This example illustrates standard cabling for a single-controller P2000 G3 SAS MSA enclosure. In this configuration, note the following: • One cable from the switch to the MSA controller offers single-path connectivity. NOTE: Restrictions exist, depending on the controller, storage enclosure, and drive model.

P2000 G3 SAS MSA single-controller, single-domain, standard cabling
This example illustrates standard cabling for a single-controller P2000 G3 SAS MSA enclosure.
In this configuration, note the following:
•
One cable from the switch to the MSA controller offers single-path connectivity.
NOTE:
Restrictions exist, depending on the controller, storage enclosure, and drive model. For
more information, see
“External SAS device, controller, drive, and cabling support matrices”
(page 77)
Devices and quantities
P2000 G3 SAS MSA controller enclosures: 1
P2000 drive enclosures: 0
BladeSystem c7000 enclosures: 1
6G SAS BL Switches: 1
Server blade types: half-height and full-height
Connection details
•
Switch in interconnect bay 5:
◦
Port 1: to P2000 G3 SAS MSA port A1
Notes
•
If additional ports on the MSA controllers
or HP 6Gb SAS BL Switch are available,
HP recommends connecting an additional
cable from the switch to the MSA
controllers, for additional performance and
fault tolerance. For an example, see
“P2000
G3 SAS MSA dual-controller, single-domain
optimal cabling” (page 81)
