Hot-Plug SCSI Hard Drive Options
When adding SCSI hard drives to the server, observe the following general
guidelines:
•
•
•
•
•
•
A maximum of 14 SCSI devices per channel can be added.
Each SCSI drive must have a unique ID. The system automatically sets all
SCSI IDs.
The SCSI ID for each hot-plug hard drive is set automatically to the next
sequential ID number in a series beginning with ID0.
If only one SCSI hard drive is used, install it in the bay with the lowest
number.
Hot-plug hard drives must be either Wide Ultra2 or Ultra3 SCSI types.
Mixing these types with other drive standards degrades the overall
performance of the drive subsystem.
Drives must be the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space
efficiency when drives are grouped together into the same drive array.
SCSI IDs
The server supports single- or dual-channel hard drive configurations. The
single-channel configuration (simplex) supports up to six hard drives on one
channel. The dual-channel configuration (duplex) supports two hard drives on
one channel (SCSI IDs 0 and 1) and up to four hard drives on the other channel
(SCSI IDs 2 through 5).
