Figure 22 I/O module A

Enterprise supports only dual-controller, dual-loop operation. Each controller is connected to both the I/O

module A and I/O module B in each drive enclosure.
The A and B I/O modules are functionally identical, but they are not interchangeable (see

Figure 23

for

I/O module locations). The physical differences between the modules ensure that you can install:

The A module (1) only at the right end of the enclosure, behind drive

bay

1.

The B module (2) only at the left end of the enclosure, next to the EMU.
