To connect two HP host servers to a RAID subsystem located on the end of the
SCSI bus (e.g., an End-Bus RAID cluster layout), reference Figure 2-3 and
follow these steps:
1. Attach a Y-cable (BN21W-0B) to the HD68-pin host adapter on Host A.
2. Attach a Y-cable (BN21W-0B) to the HD68-pin host adapter on Host B.
3. Attach one end of the HD68-pin straight-thru cable (BN21K-05) to a
convenient end of the Y-cable attached to Host A.
4. Connect the other end of the cable to a convenient end of the Y-cable
attached to Host B.
5. Attach the compatible end of the 5M adapter cable (BN38C-05) to the
available end of the HD68-pin Y-cable attached to Host B.
6. Connect the other (VHDCI-compatible) end of the adapter cable to the
available end of a tri-link connector on a subsystem controller.
7. Connect terminator H8863-AA to the available end of a tri-link connector on
a subsystem controller.
