Setting up Redundant Path Support on the PERC 6/E Adapter

The PERC 6/E adapter can detect and use redundant paths to drives contained in enclosures. With redundant paths to the same port of a device, if one path fails, another path can be used to communicate between the controller and the device. For more information about redundant paths, see "Redundant Path With Load Balancing Support" on page 37.

To set up a configuration with redundant paths, both ports on a controller must be cabled to the IN ports of a single enclosure.

To add multiple enclosures, both OUT ports of the first enclosure must be cabled to the IN ports of the next enclosure.

If the connection between an OUT port on the controller and an IN port on an enclosure fails, an alternate path exists through the second OUT port on the controller and the second In port on the enclosure. For more information, see Figure 4-11, Figure 4-12 and Figure 4-13.

NOTE: The PERC 6/E adapter supports redundant paths when used with Dell PowerVault MD1000 and Dell PowerVault MD1120 disk storage enclosures.
