Fibre Channel Loop Configurations
The 2C12D configuration contains four Fibre Channel loops. A Fibre Channel loop is formedwhen the FC drive enclosures and the controller pair are connected by Fibre Channel cables.The 2C12D configuration can use an FC loop switch or an expansion panel to achieve thedesired Fibre Channel loop configuration.
When a configuration uses FC loop switches, each FC drive enclosure in a loop is directlyconnected to the associated FC loop switch. The controller pair is also connected directly tothe associated FC loop switch. When the FC loop switch is powered on, it completes a FibreChannel loop.
When a configuration uses an expansion panel, a Fibre Channel loop is achieved byconnecting two FC drive enclosures directly to the controllers and linking each FC driveenclosure together in a chain.
Table 4provides the locations for the Fibre Channel loops in a storage rack.
Figure 13, Figure 14, Figure 15, and Figure 16show the 2C12D Fibre Channel loopconfigurations with the FC loop switches. Figure 17, Figure 18,Figure 19, and Figure 20show the 2C12D Fibre Channel loop configurations with expansion panels.

Cable Management ConfigurationsA configuration can have two different cable management configurations. If the configurationuses FC loop switches, the configuration uses a combination of cable containment spools and acable management arm to organize the Fibre Channel cables. If the configuration usesexpansion panels, the configuration uses cable containment spools to organize the FibreChannel cables.
Cable Management Arms
When the configuration uses FC loop switches, the configuration contains two cablemanagement arms. All of the Fibre Channel cables in the configuration pass through one of thecable management arms. Each cable management arm can hold several radial clips. Each
radial clip can hold a maximum of seven Fibre Channel cables. The cable management armscan hold all of the Fibre Channel cables within a storage system configuration.
Each rack contains four flumes. These flumes are placed next to the cable management armson the left and right sides of the rack. Each flume guides the Fibre Channel cables from thecable containment spools to the cable management arms.

The 0C6D rack connects to the 2C12Drack with enclosure address bus cables and Fibre Channel cables.
Enclosure Address Bus Configuration
Each rack contains enclosure address bus junction boxes at 6U increments in the left rear railof the rack. The 0C6D rack contains six enclosure address bus junction boxes; however, theFC drive enclosures use only three of the enclosure address bus junction boxes. The 2C12Drack contains seven enclosure address bus junction boxes. The FC drive enclosures andcontroller pair in the 2C12D rack use all seven enclosure address bus junction boxes.
The two racks are connected by one enclosure address bus cable, which connects to the bottomenclosure address bus junction box on each rack. The enclosure address bus cable between theracks is polarized. The P1 end of the cable connects to the bottom enclosure address busjunction box on the 2C12D rack. The P2 end of the cable connects to the bottom enclosureaddress bus junction box on the 0C6D rack.
Note: Make sure the P1 end of the enclosure address bus cable is plugged into the 2C12D rackand the P2 end of the enclosure address bus cable is plugged into the 0C6D rack. If the cable isconnected to the racks incorrectly, Command View EVA places the FC drive enclosures in theUnmappable Hardware folder.
In order to connect two racks with an enclosure address bus cable, the HP Authorized ServiceRepresentative will have to remove the bottom terminator on the master rack (2C12D rack).
