the end of the chain must have a terminating plug installed.
See SCSI Termination on page 2-14 for additional information.)
Figure 2-8. Attaching Multiple External SCSI Devices
Note:
If you are connecting a combination of both 8-bit and
16-bit devices to the external connector of a channel, you
must connect the 8-bit devices after the 16-bit devices; once
you step the cable down to 8 bits, you cannot step back up
to 16 bits. You will also need a 68-pin-to-50-pin connector to
attach the last external 16-bit device to the first 8-bit device.
Connecting SCSI Array Enclosures (Storage Subsystems)
To help you conveniently manage your SCSI storage sybsystems, a
variety of array enclosures are available from different
manufacturers. Figure 2-9 shows a typical setup between the
Hewlett-Packard array enclosure and the server.
Figure 2-10 illustrates how to cable a Hewlett-Packard array
enclosure in a cluster.To install your SCSI devices in these
