Model 4300 Family Ultra3 LVD Disk Enclosure Addendum for Use with the MA8000/EMA12000 Storage System

Addendum for Use with the MA8000/EMA12000 Storage System 5
NOTE: Fibre channel cabling information is shown to illustrate supported configurations. In a
dual-bus disk enclosure configuration, disk enclosures 1, 2, and 3 are stacked below the
controller enclosure—two SCSI Buses per enclosure
(see Figure 3). In a single-bus disk
enclosure configuration, disk enclosures 6, 5, and 4 are stacked above the controller enclosure
and disk enclosures 1, 2, and 3 are stacked below the controller enclosure—one SCSI Bus per
enclosure(see Figure 4).
4. Connect the six VHDCI UltraSCSI bus cables between the controller and disk
enclosures as shown in Figure 3 for a dual bus system and Figure 4 for a single bus
system. Note that the maximum supported cable lengths are 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10 meters.
