Cabling the RAID Subsystem Cluster
Components
This chapter provides the procedures for interconnecting two HP host servers and a
shared StorageWorks RAID subsystem through the SCSI bus, and externally terminating
the bus as applicable. Interconnection procedures for locating the RAID subsystem in a
Mid-Bus, Hub-Radiant and End-Bus layout are provided, based upon the basic cluster
layout selected in Chapter 1.
2.1 Connecting RAID Subsystem Components through the SCSI Bus
Based on the basic RAID cluster (SCSI bus) layout option you have selected,
locate the procedures in this section (cross-referenced in Chapter 1,
Table 1-1
of
this guide), to cable and terminate the cluster components through the SCSI bus.
When you have finished, reboot all the servers in the cluster.
NOTES
• The following procedures assume that the SCSI
host adapters have been prepared (e.g., on-
board resistor packs removed and SCSI IDs
set) as described in Chapter 1.
• For clarity in Figures 2-1 through 2-3, the
VHDCI
SCSI cables and terminators are shaded
and the HD68-pin (fast, wide SCSI) components
are white.
• Cables and terminators supplied with your RAID
subsystem supplement the components in your
RAID SCSI Connection Kit
. (See Chapter 1,
Table 1-2
).
