2. Connect each SP to the optional DAE to create BE2 enclosure 0 through BE5
enclosure 0, as needed.
a. For SP A, connect the lowest available port in the SAS module in the bottom
slot of the DPE to port A on the link control card A (LCC A) at the bottom of
the DAE.
b. For SP B, connect the lowest available port in the SAS module in the top slot
of the DPE to port A on the link control card B (LCC B) at the top of the
DAE.
Example 1 Connect the DAE to the DPE SP slot 0 port 0 to create back-end bus 2, BE2
Connect the DAE to the DPE SP slot 0 port 0 to create back-end bus 2 (BE2) and
designate this DAE as enclosure 0 of this bus. We refer to the address of this
enclosure as BE2 EA0 (2_0).
