MSA2000sa G2 switch-connect configurations IMPORTANT: • Any number or combination of LUNs can be shared among a maximum of 32 single-density blade servers or 16 dualdensity blade servers as long as the total adds up to no more than 512 LUNs per MSA2000sa G2. NOTE: A volume cannot be mapped to LUN 0. • Single density configurations support two 3Gb SAS BL Switches per blade enclosure. • Dual density configurations support four 3Gb SAS BL Switches per blade enclosure. • Only use supported mini-SAS 4x cables with 3Gb connectors. Blade enclosures - blade servers/two 3Gb SAS BL switches Cables required: eight (8) mini-SAS 4x cables.
