Labeling the Enclosures
Before connecting the cables:
Labels (A, B, C, and D) are provided to help identify the enclosures in the storage system.
Apply the labels to each enclosure in a visible location and avoid covering other labels
Apply label A to the controller enclosure with nodes 0 and 1. Alternate the labeling (A/B) on
each enclosure below the controller enclosure
If applicable, a system using four nodes, apply label C to the controller enclosure with nodes 2
and 3. Alternate the labeling (C/D) on each enclosure above the controller enclosure.
The illustration below describes a typical configuration using two nodes and a combination of
large and small drive enclosures.
NOTE: The illustrative depiction may not reflect the configuration setup of your system but the
labeling pattern is similar.
