Connecting the SAN Volume Controller to the uninterruptible power
supply 5115
There are a few restrictions you should be aware of before you connect the SAN
Volume Controller node to the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) 5115.
Each SAN Volume Controller of a pair must be connected to a different UPS. Each
UPS can support up to two SAN Volume Controllers.
Attention: Do not connect two clusters to the same pair of uninterruptible power
supplies. Both clusters will be lost in the event that a power failure occurs on both
of those uninterruptible power supplies.
