Cabling the Expansion Enclosure to a Storage System

Connect an SC100/SC120 expansion enclosure to the back-end SAS ports on an SCv2000/SCv2020 storage system.

NOTE: In an SC100/SC120 expansion enclosure, the top storage controller is storage controller 1 and the bottom storage controller is storage controller 2.

1.If you are installing more than one expansion enclosure, cable the expansion enclosures in series by connecting a SAS cable from the top EMM, port B of one expansion enclosure to the top EMM, port A of the next expansion enclosure. Continue cabling the expansion enclosures in series until all of the expansion enclosures are connected together.

2.Connect a SAS cable from storage controller 1: port A to the first expansion enclosure in the SAS

chain: top EMM, port A.

3.Connect a SAS cable from storage controller 2: port B to the last expansion enclosure in the SAS

chain: top EMM, port B.

4.Connect a SAS cable from storage controller 1: port B to the last expansion enclosure in the SAS

chain: bottom EMM, port B.

5.Connect a SAS cable from storage controller 2: port A to the first expansion enclosure in the SAS

chain: bottom EMM, port A.
