Cabling for additional enclosures
NOTE In a configuration with two XR RAID enclosures, the number of XE extension enclosures per XR RAID enclosure must be the same. The total number of enclosures in the storage assembly must be an even number.
Connecting Archiving Storage
NOTE This section does not apply to Autodesk Lustre.
Visual Effects and Finishing applications support archiving to USB 2.0, FireWire® (IEEE 1394) and fibre channel devices. This includes filesystems, VTRs and tape drives. This section discusses the requirements for filesystem and tape drive devices. For information on connecting a VTR, see Connecting Video Components.
Filesystem Devices
USB 2.0 and FireWire (IEEE 1394) attached devices must be formatted with one of the following filesystems: XFS, ext2, ext3, or HFS (Mac®). NTFS is not supported.
NOTE Care must be taken to ensure that the filesystems used to store archives are reliable, stable and properly backed up so as to protect the archive integrity. This functionality is not provided by the application.
SCSI Tape Drive Devices
SCSI tape drives can be connected to a fibre channel port of the workstation by way of a
