• Ready — The enclosure or backplane is functioning normally.
• Degraded — The enclosure has encountered a failure and is operating in a 
degraded state. This state does not apply to backplanes.
• Failed — The enclosure or backplane has encountered a failure and is no 
longer functioning.
Connector Displays the number of connectors attached to the enclosures or backplanes. 
This number matches the number connector on the controller hardware. 
Depending on the controller type, the connector can be either a SCSI channel 
or a SAS port.
Enclosure ID Displays the enclosure ID assigned to the enclosure by Storage Management. 
Storage Management numbers the enclosures attached to the controller 
starting with zero. This number is the same as the enclosure ID number

• Split — Indicates that the enclosure is operating in the split-bus mode.
• Unied — Indicates that enclosure is operating in the unied mode.
• Clustered — Indicates that the enclosure is operating in cluster mode. 
Clustered mode is only available on cluster-enabled RAID controllers. For 
more information, see Background Initialization On PERC Controllers.
For more information on joined, split, and cluster modes, see the enclosure 
hardware documentation. For information on how to cable the enclosure to 
accommodate these dierent modes, see the enclosure hardware 
documentation.
The bus conguration switch when toggled on a 220S or 221S enclosure, the 
enclosure should be turned o. For more information, see Changing The Mode 
On 220S And 221S Enclosures.
Older 200S enclosures with a version 1.8 kernel that only have one EMM may 
display Split Bus mode and not Joined Bus mode. Joined Bus or Clustered 
modes may display when applicable in these circumstances.

NOTE: For systems supporting multiple backplanes, the rmware 
version appears as upstream and downstream versions.
