Controller

Configuration

In this configuration only one RAID controller is installed in
the enclosure’s I/O slot. The second I/O slot must contain an
I/O module or a blank plate.
Note: The following configuration procedures refer to
connecting the 2Gb SANbloc Series direct ly to the host
system. It is also possible to connect the system using a Hub/
Switch.
CAUTION: Before working on the enclosu r e , ensure that anti-
static precautions have been taken. The minimum requirement is
an anti-static wrist strap and grounding wire.
To connect this configuration to a host system, follow this
procedure:
Connecting a Single RAID Controller to a Host
1Plug both host cables into the host connectors on the RAID
controller (see Figure 4-5).
Note: For single HBA configurations only one of the host
connectors should be used.
2Connect the opposite ends of these host cables, to the HBA’s of
the host system.
Note: For details on your host and/or HBA refer to the doc umen-
tation that was supplied with the host / HBA.
