Two external SAS 4x ports are supported with the expanded function storage configuration. The SAS port
connectors are located on the rear bulk head. The external SAS ports are used for expansion to external
SAS storage drawers.
SAS subsystem service considerations
There are several considerations to review before servicing features within the SAS subsystem for the
5105-22E, 9008-22L, 9009-22A, 9009-22G, 9009-41A, 9009-41G, 9009-42A, 9009-42G, 9223-22H,
9223-22S, 9223-42H, or 9223-42S system.
Before servicing any features, review the I/O configurations for each logical partition on your system. It is
important to understand the differences between the various configurations and the resulting service
considerations. In addition, consider possible impacts to the following areas:
• Logical partitions and their I/O adapter assignments
• RAID array configurations
• Physical disk locations
• Path to your boot device

Problem determination and recovery
Review information about using problem determination and recovery procedures for the 5105-22E,
9008-22L, 9009-22A, 9009-22G, 9009-41A, 9009-41G, 9009-42A, 9009-42G, 9223-22H, 9223-22S,
9223-42H, or 9223-42S system.
Attention: To maintain system availability and to prevent possible data loss, contact your next
level of support for any service that is related to the SAS storage subsystem on the 5105-22E,
9008-22L, 9009-22A, 9009-22G, 9009-41A, 9009-41G, 9009-42A, 9009-42G, 9223-22H,
9223-22S, 9223-42H, or 9223-42S system.
