* When using c7000 enclosures and P721m controllers, the 6Gb SAS BL Switch can be installed only in c7000
interconnect bays 5, 6, 7, and 8, because the P721m controller cannot be installed in server expansion slot 1, which
maps to c7000 interconnect bays 3 and 4.
For more information about mappings, see the BladeSystem Deployment Guide for solutions
with 6Gb SAS BL Switches and External SAS Storage Enclosures and user documents for your
BladeSystem c-Class enclosure model. For information about supported SAS controllers, see
the 6Gb SAS BL switch QuickSpecs.
