D-10 Failover
The SAS-216EL2 backplane has two expanders which allow effective failover and
recovery.
Single Host Bus Adapter
In a single host bus configuration, the
backplane connects to one Host Bus
Adapter (HBA).
Single Host Bus Adapter
Failover
If the expander or data path in Port A
fails, the system automatically switches
to Port B.
Dual Host Bus Adapter
In a Dual Host Bus Configuration, the
backplane connects to two Host Bus
Adapters (HBA).
Dual Host Bus Adapter
Failover
If the Expander or data path in Port A
fails, the system automatically switches
to Port B. This maintains a full connec-
tion to all drives.
