Cabling Your Solution
This section provides information about cabling the Dell™ PowerVault™
NX1950 storage system to the PowerVault MD3000 storage array or to the
Dell|EMC storage array.
Cabling the Integrated Solution
Before you turn on the system, ensure that the PowerVault MD3000 storage
array is cabled to the PowerVault NX1950 storage system(s). Figure 2-1
and Figure 2-2 illustrate how to cable the SAS 5/E HBA controllers in the
PowerVault NX1950 storage system to the PowerVault MD3000 storage
array. The PowerVault NX1950 storage solution supports single-node and
two-node cluster configurations only.
NOTE:
If you turn on the PowerVault NX1950 storage system before turning on the
storage arrays, the PowerVault Storage Management Console does not detect the
PowerVault MD3000 storage array. Ensure that you turn on the storage arrays and
the storage arrays complete bootup before you turn on the PowerVault NX1950
storage system.
