Configuring blades with the SAS Connectivity Card
Follow these steps for blades that have the SAS Connectivity Card instead of an
SAS Expansion Card. For configurations with the SAS Connectivity Card, the
internal hard drive and external drives are on the same storage bus. To configure
the blade to operate the SAS Connectivity Card, the Onboard SAS Controller BIOS
must be set to scan LUN0 only during the boot and the external drives must be
mapped with numbers higher then 0.
Note: If you map drives to the host through the RAID Controller command line
interface, you must start the drive mapping with LUN1 or higher. If you start the
drive mapping at LUN0, a boot delay will occur.
