8. Map Logical Drive 0 to channels 0 and 4 of the primary controller
9. Map Logical Drive 1 to channels 1 and 5 of the secondary controller.
10. If more than two logical drives were created, map even-numbered logical drives to
channels 0 and 4 of the primary controller and odd-numbered logical drives to
channels 1 and 5 of the secondary controller.
11. Connect the first switch to port FC0 of the upper controller and port FC1 of the
lower controller.
12. Connect the second switch to port FC4 of the lower controller and port FC5 of the
upper controller.
