Figure 247:
Configuration 0
There is no SAS cable connection table for this configuration, because the host servers do not rely on
specific ports to see specific drives and drive slots.
Configuration 1
Configuration 1 allows up to six redundantly configured hosts to view a specific zone group of drives. Each
host will be able to view up to 17 drives that are mapped to both IOMs. Each zone group will display all
of the devices that are contained within that zone. If a drive slot is not populated, it will still be part of
that zone group, but it will not display any results in enclosure management until the drive slot has been
populated. In this configuration, the enclosure is divided into six zone groups as shown in the folloing
image (represented by six different colors). Each zone group matches to a single SAS port on each IOM
(represented by a matching color) to allow for the connections to six different hosts.

In-band management
: Configuration 1 can be initiated in-band with the
sg_senddiag
command by
passing

senddiag command.
•
Out-of-band management
: Configuration 1 can be initiated out-of-band by passing
1
as the
ZoningConfig

Redfish POST:
/redfish/v1/Systems/Self/Storage/<Enclosure Logical ID>/Actions/Storage.Zoning
{ "ZoningConfig": "1" }
cURL POST:
curl -X POST -k -u admin:admin -H "Content-type: application/json"
https://<IP Address>/redfish/v1/Systems/Self/Storage/<Enclosure Logical ID>/Actions/
Storage.Zoning -d
