To connect the drive robotics and one drive to one shared SCSI bus and the second drive to a second shared SCSI bus, follow these steps:

1.Connect a BN21K or BN21L between the last trilink connector on one shared SCSI bus to the leftmost connector (as viewed from the rear) of the TL892.

2.Connect a BN21K or BN21L between the last trilink connector on the second shared SCSI bus to the left DLT2 connector (the fifth connector from the left).

3.Install a 0.3-meter SCSI bus jumper between the rightmost robotics connector (the second connector from the left) and the left DLT1 connector (the third connector from the left).

4.Install an H879-AA terminator on the right DLT1 connector (the fourth connector from the left) and install another H879-AA terminator on the right DLT2 connector (the rightmost connector).

Figure 8–9 shows an example of a TruCluster Server cluster with a TL892 connected to two shared SCSI buses.
