Predefined storage configuration 04

Use predefined storage configuration 04 to implement a single blade server, two SAS connectivity modules, and up to two disk storage modules, each with up to six hard disk drives. The blade server can access all hard disk drives in both disk storage modules and all external ports on both SAS connectivity modules.

This configuration has the following characteristics:

• The blade server has access to all hard disk drives in both disk storage modules (for a maximum of 12 hard disk drives if you are implementing both disk storage modules).
• The SAS connectivity module in I/O module bay 3 controls access to the hard disk drives in disk storage module 1.
• The SAS connectivity module in I/O module bay 4 controls access to the hard disk drives in disk storage module 2.
• The blade server has access to all external ports on both SAS connectivity modules.

Note

This configuration maps the hard disks to the blade servers and the blade servers to the external ports on the SAS connectivity module. You will need to use the LSI Configuration Utility, MegaRAID Storage Manager, or ServerGuide to set up mirroring.
