Hardware Installation
This chapter explains how to connect the controller in your RAID enclosure to your
network and host computer.
Connecting the Controller
Your controller is already installed in an enclosure. Before you configure the
controller and create arrays, you must connect the controller, which has two types of
data connections:
!
SCSI channel (G5312 and K5312)—permitting connection to a server (host).
!
Fibre Channel (G7313 and K7313)—permitting connection to other FC
devices, typically through an arbitrated loop or SAN with fabric.
!
RS-232 serial port—for configuration and management of the controller.
Connecting to the SCSI Port
You can connect the controller (G5312 and K5312) to a SCSI port. Refer to your
enclosure documentation for the type of connector required.
To connect to the SCSI port:
1
Be sure the enclosure is turned off.
2
Connect one end of the SCSI cable to the SCSI port on the enclosure.
3
Connect the other end of the SCSI cable to a server’s SCSI port.
Connecting to the Fibre Channel Port
You can connect the controller (G7313 and K7313) to an FC HBA or to an FC switch
or hub. You must use proper FC components. Refer to your enclosure documentation
for the type of connector required.
