1.11 Setting the PVA SCSI Address

The SCSI bus address switch on the front of the PVA module (see Figure 1-20) controls
the SCSI address (device ID) of each storage device in the enclosure. The following
configuration rules (restrictions) apply in establishing the PVA SCSI bus address:
1) The master PVA address is always 0.
There is only one master PVA in any subsystem installation.
2) The first expansion cabinet (if used) address is 2.
The second expansion cabinet (if used) address is 3.
In an expansion subsystem, no two enclosures can have the same address.
3) Compaq does not support any PVA address that assigns SCSI bus device addresses 6
or 7 to any storage device.
4) Compaq does not support any combination of PVA addresses that assign the same
SCSI bus device address to more than one device on any SCSI bus.
