Step 4: Making Management and Data Connections
Configuring Direct Attached Storage
This arrangement requires:
• A network switch
• A network interface card (NIC) in the PC
• A SCSI HBA card in the PC
• A SCSI cable that fits your HBA card and has a VHDCI connector to fit the
VTrak SCSI channel
Data Path
To establish the data path:
Connect a SCSI cable to the Host PC's SCSI HBA card and one of the VTrak's
SCSI channels.
VTrak's SCSI connectors are bi-directional. However, the internal termination
feature works only on the "Out" connector. Internal termination is set to Automatic
by default.
To use the internal termination feature, attach the SCSI cable to the "In"
connector. An external terminator is not required for this arrangement.
If you plan to connect multiple VTraks on a SCSI chain, connect the "Out"
connector of the same SCSI channel on the first VTrak to "In" connector of a
SCSI channel on the second VTrak.
See Chapters 4 or 5 of the VTrak Product Manual on the software CD for more
information.
Management Path
To establish the management path:
Connect the PC's standard NIC and VTrak's Management Port to your network
switch to establish the management path.
