Task 6: Making Data Connections

Connecting the RAID Subsystem
The VTrak RAID subsystem connects to the VTrak appliance using a Fibre
Channel (FC) or a SAS data connection.
Fibre Channel Interface
The VTrak FC subsystem uses four (4) 8-Gb SFP+ transceivers, two per RAID
controller on its two FC ports.
SAS Expansion Port
To connect the FC subsystem:
Connect one of the FC ports on the left RAID controller to one of the
1.
down stream FC ports on the HBA card in the VTrak appliance.
2. Connect one of the FC ports on the right RAID controller to one of the
down stream FC ports on the HBA card in the VTrak appliance.
See the diagram below.
