Configuration 0
There is no SAS cable connection Configuration table for this Configuration. This is because the host
servers do not rely on any order of connection to see the 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 10 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 image
below represented by six different colors. Each zone group matches to a single SAS port on each side of
the rear IOM to allow for the connections to six different hosts.
