  • Page 10: Sca Connection And Hot-Swapping

    This chapter covers SCSI device installation for 4-bay 1U rackmount enclosures. SCA Connection and Hot-Swapping The unit uses SCA-2 type connectors which provide a safe means of connection/disconnection when hot-swapping devices. In order to utilize this feature, the host adapter or RAID controller and host operating software must support the feature.

    Betriebs verursachen kann. Basic Personality Card Setup This section covers 4-bay 1U SCSI JBOD units using the basic personality card. This card does not have a controller interface built-in. The following Figure shows the slot numbering sequence used to refer to device bays and additionally shows the factory ID value for each slot.
  • Page 13: Setting Id

    Setting ID The basic personality card has jumpers available on the personality card to set the ID for each slot. To access the jumpers the top cover must be removed. The following picture indicates the location of jumpers W1-W4. NOTE: View is from rear of the unit. There are 4 jumpers on the personality card (W1, W2, W3, and W4) for hard setting the ID of each slot.
  • Page 14: Id Conflict

    ID Conflict When two devices share the same SCSI ID, a conflict occurs. This conflict must be corrected before the SCSI bus will work properly. If a conflict occurs, check all jumper settings to ensure that no devices on the bus share the same ID. Also check all other devices on the bus outside of the enclosure.

    The SCSI In ports are used to connect to a host and require an external cable with a 68-pin High-Density male connector to mate at the enclosure side. Cables are not included. Each SCSI channel must use a separate external cable connection from the rackmount to the host adapter or RAID controller.
