    Drive-side trunking cabling Notes: 1. The EXP5060 storage expansion enclosure requires firmware version 7.60.13.05, or higher for drive-side trunking cabling. 2. The actual improvement in throughput depends on your logical drive configuration and workload. In addition, this cabling scheme is also recommended because it provides additional redundancy between the storage subsystem controllers and EXP5060 ESMs.
  • Page 102 DS5100/DS5300 and the EXP5060: 1. Port 1B of the EXP5060 ESM A can only be connected to an even-numbered drive channel port in the DS5100/DS5300 controller A (port 8, 6, 4, 2) or port 1A of the adjacent EXP5060 ESM A.

    3, that port 2B of EXP5060 ESM A can only be connected to an odd-numbered drive channel port in DS5100/DS5300 controller A (port 7, 5, 3, 1). This controller drive port must be part of the same drive channel of controller A as the ESM port is connected to in rule 1.

  • Page 105: Ds5100 And Ds5300 Drive Cabling Best Practices And Rules

    For example, if you have four EXP5000s to be cabled to the DS5100 and DS5300, instead of cabling all four EXP5000s to one drive port of a drive channel, distribute the enclosures to all drive ports, which results in one enclosure per drive port of a drive channel.
