storage implementation can accommodate redundant controllers. See Figure 2 in section 6.1. This is

modeled using SNIA Multiple Computer Systems profile and uses HPSA_RedundancySet to show a

collection of controllers in a redundant configuration. The controllers are associated to the Top Level

System via CIM_ComponentCS. In the case of externally connected controllers, the front end port is

modeled on the connection type to the host (e.g. CIM_SPIPort).

PhysicalPackage package is used to model the chassis (containing the array controller(s) and optionally a

storage enclosure) that is external to the host. The top level system, HPSA_arraySystem of the external

storage is associated to the top level system of the PCI based smart array HBA via instance of

HPSA_arraySystemExternalArraySystem. See Section 9.4 for specific use cases
