Listen bucko that's how they told us to deploy it 10+ years ago and dang nabbit you're gonna do the same.I'm not quite understanding the need for daisy chaining. Couldn't I just use a dual port card, connecting each to the top controller of each shelf and keep them separate?
It's supposed to daisy chain to whatever the head unit is I believe.
Likea-dis. Big beefy boys at the bottom are SPA and SPB for a VNX. Everything with a number would be your disk shelves. If cabled properly you should see the shelves in sequential order. When not connecting to a head unit like a VNX though you got me there. You silly homelab users!
