Cabling Tables and Diagrams for Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Racked System ZS9-2 HE Capacity Configurations

The following table describes the locations and port connections for two controllers and nine disk shelves in the base cabinet, using 3-meter optical SAS cables. The first disk shelf is located in RU01, and each disk shelf has two IOMs.

The following tables are for configurations of two chains in the base cabinet and two chains per expansion cabinet, therefore allowing a maximum of 39 disk shelves.

Note:

Two Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE3-12C disk shelves are the equivalent of one Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE3-24C disk shelf. Configuration information for both of these disk shelves is located in Overview of Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Racked System ZS9-2 HE Capacity Configurations. Also, Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE3-12C cabling guidelines are provided in Cabling Guidelines for Adding an Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE3-12C. Example Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE3-12C cabling diagrams are located in Example Mixed Disk Shelf Configurations.

The following diagrams illustrate how pre-racked systems are cabled, as well as how to expand your system in the future. The legend for each diagram is as follows:

A hollow circle indicates the cable connection to the top IOM (IOM 1).
A solid circle indicates the cable connection to the bottom IOM (IOM 0).
