Connecting the Subsystem to the Host

This section describes how to connect your subsystem to a host. It also
includes instructions for connecting a single (nonredundant) controller
and dual-redundant controllers to the host.

Caution Do not attempt to configure dual-redundant controllers using
one hub with a loopback cable. This configuration will cause data
corruption and is not supported.

Connecting a Single Controller to the Host Using One Hub

There are two possible configurations for a single controller, one that
uses a single hub, and a second that uses two hubs. The second
configuration can be used if you have two hosts to which you’re
connecting to your controller.
