Separate Logical SCSI Buses
The key part of the ProLiant CL380 SCSI ID configuration is to understand
that there are two separate logical SCSI buses, each with its own SCSI ID
numbering (see Figure H-1). The CR3500 Controllers participate in both the
Host Side Bus and the Disk Side Bus. Because there are two logical SCSI
buses, it is possible for it to appear that there are duplicate SCSI IDs in the
system. However, because the buses are separate, each bus may use the same
SCSI IDs.
