HP StorageWorks D2700 User Manual

Cabling the disk enclosure to the controller
To connect the first disk enclosure to the controller, use a standard mini-SAS cable.
IMPORTANT:
When connecting this disk enclosure to single-path HP Smart Array P212 or P411 6Gb SAS controllers,
the second I/O module (I/O module B) in the disk enclosure is not supported for use.
The following illustration shows an HP ProLiant DL380 G6 server with a two-port HP Smart Array
P411 controller connecting to Small Form Factor (SFF) disk enclosures. Your environment might include
a different model server, controller, or disk enclosure, but the cabling principles are the same. For
additional examples of cabling scenarios, see Chapter 6 on page 49
