MX5016s
Hard drives connected to MX5016s can be mapped to PowerEdge Modular servers in two ways:
- Slot Mapping: In slot mapping, hard drives can be mapped to specific PowerEdge Modular servers slots. Slot level mapping of MX5016s is possible from compute. If you have 1 compute and 3 MX5016s, you can have any individual slots of any MX5016s mapped to the compute. Storage Management discovers and lists only the slots with hard drive present in MX5016s.
NOTE: This release supports slot level mapping.
- Enclosure Mapping: In enclosure mapping, Storage Management discovers and lists the complete enclosure.
NOTE: Storage Management does not monitor the inventory when MX5016s is not mapped to the specific PowerEdge Modular servers.
|
NOTE: Storage Management does not enumerate any slot information when dynamic assign or unassign of empty MX5016s or drive is not present before the dynamic assign or unassign is performed.
|
NOTE: For a fully populated PowerEdge MX7000 chassis, the Storage Management system takes a few minutes to load the storage components.
|
NOTE: While hot-plug-in multiple drives of MX5016s physically, wait for each insert alert to avoid the wrong enumeration.
