EMC VNX8000 Hardware Information Guide 115
As shown in Figure 96 on page 114, an enclosure ID

indicator is located on each ICM.
Each ICM also includes a bus (back-end port) identification indicator. The SP initializes
the bus ID when the operating system is loaded.
Table 48 describes the ICM status LEDs.
ICM input/output ports and connectors
The 4U, 60 DAE ICM supports the following I/O ports on the rear:
◆ Four 6-Gb/s PCI Gen 2 mini-SAS ports
◆ One management (RJ-12) connector to the SPS
◆ One USB connector
6-Gb/s mini-SAS x8 ports — The DAE ICM supports four (two input and two output) 6-Gb/s
mini-SAS x8 ports on the rear of each ICM (A and B). This port provides an interface for
SAS and NL-SAS drives in the DAE. The port is a 26-circuit mini-SAS small form-factor
8088 (SFF-8088) specification (socket or receptacle) using an SFF-8088 specification
mini-SAS 26-circuit cable (plug) with a pull tab.
Note: Each SAS cable is keyed with an
in
and
out
connection to prevent incorrect cabling.
A video describing how to properly connect mini-SAS HD cables and mini-SAS cables to a
DPE and a DAE, respectively, in a VNX product is available online at:
https://edutube.emc.com/, in the Search box, type in Mini-SAS HD Cable Connectivity.
The video will start immediately.
Note: The first half of the video shows an example of how to connect a mini-SAS HD cable
to a mini-SAS HD port while the second half shows how to connect a mini-SAS cable to a
DAE LCC port.
