Connecting SCSI Devices

The server supports up to 10 internal SCSI devices.  Additional SCSI devices can be added to the server by
using an EISA- or PCI-based SCSI host adapter installed in an available expansion slot in conjunction with
an external SCSI expansion box.  The PRIORIS HX MP supports the following configurations.

Storage Backplane

The storage backplane supports seven hot-swap devices split between two SCSI bus sections: SCSI bus A
and SCSI bus B (see Figure 3-21).  SCSI bus A is the upper section and consists of four SCSI device
connections.  SCSI bus B is the lower bus section and consists of three SCSI device connections.  These
buses can be configured as two independent SCSI channels or as one channel by installing a wide SCSI
jumper cable.  Figures 3-22 through 3-26 show the available cable configurations.
The server has been supplied with three SCSI cables and three SCSI bus terminators to configure the server
for up to three internal SCSI channels.  Additional cables are available to support external SCSI devices or
as replacement cables.
