Configuring Direct Attached Storage
Direct attached storage (DAS) requires:
• Two SAS HBA cards in the Host PC or Server
• A network switch
• A network interface card (NIC) in the Host PC or Server
To establish the data path:
On the VTrak controller, connect a SAS data port or a SAS data/cascade port to
one of your SAS HBA cards. See Figure 16.
To establish the management path:
1. On the VTrak controller, connect the Management Port on each Controller to
your network switch. See Figure 16.
2. Connect the Host PC’s or Server’s standard NIC to your network switch.
