Using the DS-DWZZH-05 UltraSCSI Hub

2.1 DS-DWZZH-05 UltraSCSI Hub Description

The DS-DWZZH-05 UltraSCSI hub is supported on TruCluster Available
Server Software Version 1.4A and TruCluster Available Server Software
Version 1.5 and TruCluster Production Server Software Version 1.4A and
TruCluster Production Server Software Version 1.5.
The DS-DWZZH-05:
Is a 5.25-inch StorageWorks Building Block (SBB)
Has five VHDCI differential SCSI bus connectors
Uses SCSI ID 7 whether or not fair arbitration mode is enabled.
Therefore, you cannot use SCSI ID 7 for a RAID array controller or for
the member systems' SCSI bus adapter.
Contains internal termination for each port; therefore, it terminates the
hub end of each SCSI bus segment.
_____________________
Do not put trilinks on the DS-DWZZH-05 as it is not possible
to remove the DS-DWZZH-05 internal termination.
Requires that termination power (termpwr) be provided by the SCSI
bus host adapters on each SCSI bus segment.
_____________________
The DS-DWZZH-05 is designed to sense loss of termination
power (such as a cable pull or termpwr not enabled on the
host adapter) and shut down the applicable port to prevent
corrupted signals on the remaining SCSI bus segments.
