Loading a simple trace when Unit A of a DBX is connected last
If you collect a simple trace le when Unit A of a DBX drive tray is connected last in the
conguration, Unit B of the DBX in the Logical conguration gure and DBX in the
Physical conguration gure are displayed in cyan in the Conguration screen. This
indicates Unit B is not connected because the unit connected last is Unit A of the DBX,
which consists of Unit A and Unit B. You can reference the cable gure where only Unit A
of the DBX is connected.
Procedure
1. In the Array Unit Type dialog box, click Load log to load a simple trace of the
conguration, where Unit A of a DBX is connected last.
After it is loaded, Unit B of the DBX in Logical conguration gure and the DBX in
Physical conguration gure are shown in cyan.
The number of drive slots in Unit B of DBX is not reected in the Array system
drive slot count and Path drive slot count because Unit B of the DBX is not
connected.
2. Click Cable Figure to display the cable gure.
No SAS (ENC) cable is connected to Unit B of the DBX because the Unit A of the DBX
is connected last.
If you collect a simple trace le when Unit A of a DBX drive box is connected last in
the conguration, you cannot click Create on the conguration screen. When the
Logical and Physical conguration gure can be edited, Unit B of a DBX is not
displayed in cyan and Create can be clicked.
