Redundancy is established by installing separate data paths between the host

and the storage array, in which each path is to one of the two RAID controller

modules installed in the storage array. Redundancy protects the host from

losing access to data in the event of path failure, because both RAID

controller modules can access all the disks in the storage array.

For detailed information about all cabling configurations including direct and

SAN-attached hosts, cabling for remote replication environments, the use of

zoning, and HBA installation, see Configuring Fibre Channel With the Dell

MD3600f Series Storage Array, at support.dell.com/manuals.

Cabling PowerVault MD1200 Series Expansion

Enclosures

You can expand the capacity of your PowerVault MD3600f series storage array

by adding PowerVault MD1200 series expansion enclosures. You can expand

the physical disk pool to a maximum of 96 physical disks using a maximum of

seven expansion enclosures.

Expanding With Previously Configured PowerVault MD1200 Series

Expansion Enclosures

Use this procedure if your expansion enclosure is directly attached to and

configured on a Dell PERC H800 adapter. Data from virtual disks created on

a PERC H800 adapter cannot be directly migrated to a PowerVault MD3600f

series storage array or to a PowerVault MD1200 series expansion enclosure

connected to a PowerVault MD3600f series storage array.

CAUTION:

If a PowerVault MD1200 series enclosure that was previously attached

to PERC H800 adapter is used as an expansion enclosure to a PowerVault MD3600f

series storage array, the physical disks of the expansion enclosure are

reinitialized and data is lost. You must backup all data on the expansion enclosure

before attempting the expansion.

To attach previously configured PowerVault MD1200 series expansion

enclosures to the PowerVault MD3600f series storage array:

1 Back up all data on the expansion enclosure(s).

2 While the enclosure is still attached to the PERC H800 controller,

upgrade the expansion enclosure firmware to the latest version available

at support.dell.com.
