B.7 Connecting Sun StorEdge 3510 FC JBOD
Arrays
You can connect a Sun StorEdge 3510 FC JBOD array directly to a host server. Use
your standard host system disk management utilities for all disk management of
disks in a Sun StorEdge 3510 FC JBOD array, such as partitioning and formatting.
Refer to your host system documentation for more information about disk
management.
There are two ways to verify that you have a Sun StorEdge 3510 FC JBOD array (or
expansion unit) rather than a Sun StorEdge 3510 FC RAID array:
■
The back panel of a Sun StorEdge 3510 FC JBOD array resembles that shown in
“Sun StorEdge 3510 FC JBOD Array Attached to a Single HBA Port” on
page B-10
.
■
Remove the front bezel and look at the labels on the bottom lip of the chassis. If
you have a a Sun StorEdge 3510 FC JBOD array, one label contains this
designation:
3510 AC JBOD (alternating current model) or 3510 DC JBOD (direct current
model).
B.7.1 Single-Port Connections to Sun StorEdge 3510 FC
JBOD Arrays
