7320 Clustered to Mixed Disk Shelves

The following figures show a subset of the supported configurations for Oracle ZFS Storage 7320 clustered controllers with one HBA. To cable the controller to the disk shelves, see Getting Started with Cabling.

Using mixed disk shelves on a controller, requires the following:

  • The controller must use only 4X4 port SAS-2 HBAs

  • Do not use mixed disk shelves in the same chain


Note -  For port locations, see the hardware overview section for the corresponding controller in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Installation Guide. 4X4 port SAS-2 HBAs are only supported with release AK 2013.1.0 and later.
