1.3System Configuration

Figure 1.8 shows the system configuration. The IDDs are connected to the SCSI bus of host systems and are always operated as target. The IDDs perform input/output operation as specified by SCSI devices which operate as initiator.

Figure 1.8 System configuration

(1)SCSI bus configuration

Up to eight SCSI devices operating as an initiator or a target can be connected to the SCSI bus for the 8-bit SCSI and up to 16 SCSI devices operating as an initiator or a target can be connected to the SCSI bus for the 16-bit SCSI in any combination.

For example, the system can be configured as multi-host system on which multiple host computers that operate as initiator or connected through the SCSI bus.

Using disconnect/reconnect function, concurrent input/output processing is possible on multi- SCSI devices.
