Example Configurations of the IOAM Enclosure and

Fibre Channel Disk Module

This illustration shows an example of cable connections between the two FCSAs and

four Fibre Channel disk modules in a single daisy-chain configuration.

A single IOAM enclosure, two FCSAs, and four Fibre Channel disk modules with ID

expander does not provide fault-tolerant mirrored disk storage. Installing each mirrored

disk in the same corresponding FCDM and bay number as its primary disk is not

required, but it is recommend to simplify the physical management and identification of

the disks.

This table list the FCSA group-module-slot-port (GMSP) and disk

group-module-shelf-bay (GMSB) identification for the factory-default system disk

locations in a daisy-chained configuration:

Disk Volume Name FCSA GMSP Disk GMSB

$SYSTEM 100.2.3.1 and 100.3.3.1 100.231.101

$DSMSCM 100.2.3.1 and 100.3.3.1 100.231.102

$AUDIT 100.2.3.1 and 100.3.3.1 100.231.103

$OSS 100.2.3.1 and 100.3.3.1 100.231.104

For an illustration of the factory-default slot locations for the Fibre Channel disk module,
