Safte Chain Id - nStor CR8e User Manual

Using the CR8e

SAFTE CHAIN ID

This option allows the administrator to establish the intercabinet SAF-TE
communication to support a master and slave cabinets. The master cabinet can
report component failure for both the master cabinet and up to two slave cabinets
to the AdminiStor Storage Management software. Each cabinet's individual OCP
will function normally for that cabinet's components.
Once the slave cabinets have been established, the administrator must use the slave
cabinet's OCP to manually take that slave cabinet SAF-TE card off bus, refer to
"SCSI ID Menu" on page 46.
