Drive Enclosures for a SuperTrak RAID Controller
Configuring a Data Path
To establish the data path:
1.
Connect the SuperTrak RAID Controller in the Host PC to the SAS IN port on
the I/O module of the first VessJBOD. See page 16, Figure 7.
2.
Connect the SAS OUT port of the I/O module of the first VessJBOD to the
SAS IN port on the I/O module of the second VessJBOD.
3.
Connect the remaining VessJBOD units in the same manner.
All SAS ports have SFF-8088 connectors.
Configuring a Management Path
The SuperTrak RAID Controller installs in the Host PC, therefore it does not
require a separate network management connection.
You can monitor the VessJBOD subsystems using the WebPAM PRO software
installed on the Host PC.
Direct Management of VessJBOD
A management connection directly to the VessJBOD uses a serial connection to
the Host PC. See “Chapter 3: Management” on page 21 for more information.
