Chapter 3: Host Connection 39

Host Connection
This chapter provides examples of possible cabling topologies between one or more
hosts and a controller tray or a controller-drive tray. Direct-attach topologies, fabric
topologies, and mixed topologies are addressed. You are not limited to using only
these topologies. Examples are provided to show basic concepts to help you define an
optimal host-cabling topology. A table that lists the maximum supported number of
hosts is included.
For host port locations on the specific controller tray model or controller-drive tray
model that you are installing, see the topics under “Component Locations.”
NOTE If you are using the Synchronous Mirroring premium feature, see the topics
under "
Hardware Installation for Synchronous Mirroring" on page 189 for
information on connecting using a host port between two storage arrays.
NOTE iSCSI or Infiniband host ports do not support the Data Assurance (DA) feature.
