Connecting multiple ES30 shelves to the DD9500
system
The cabling diagrams in this section show the maximum configurations for the DD9500 systems. Not all systems will have all the
disk shelves shown in the diagrams.
Add shelf-to-shelf cables between shelves in a loop and to the controller as shown in the diagrams.
1. Cable from the B Controller EXPANSION
port of the lower shelf to the B controller HOST
port of the next higher
shelf.
2. Then cable from the A Controller HOST
port of lower shelf to the A controller EXPANSION
port of the next higher
shelf
3. There are no specific placement or cabling requirements for SSD shelves, or the metadata shelves for DD Cloud Tier
configurations. These shelves can be installed and cabled the same way as standard ES30 shelves.
4. The SSD shelf counts towards the total number of shelves connected to the system.
5. Data Domain recommends installing the SSD shelf in the V1.1 positon, but if that is not possible, the shelf can be placed in a
different location in the rack so long as cables of sufficient length are available.
NOTE:
V1.1 is recommended for better performance because this will the 1
st
hop where data will be written. If the SSD
shelf is connected to the last enclosure in a chain, then each read/write request has to go through many hops, which
introduces latency issues when compared to when the SSD shelf is on the 1
st
shelf of a chain.
6. Use the cable management assembly to support and organize all cables from theDD9500 system.
Select the appropriate configuration from the following list, and connect the disk shelves to the Data Domain controller.
