JBOD Expansion to DAS or SAN

The 16- and 12-bay VessRAID models have a JBOD expansion port.
JBOD expansion is not possible with 8-bay VessRAID models.
Configuring a Data Path
To establish the data path:
1. Connect the SAS Expansion port (with a diamond icon) of the VessRAID
controller to the SAS IN port (with a circle icon) on the I/O module of the first
VessJBOD.
2. Connect the SAS OUT port (with a diamond icon) of the VessJBOD I/O
module of the first VessJBOD to the SAS IN port (with a circle icon) on the
I/O module of the second VessJBOD.
3. Connect the remaining VessJBOD units in the same manner.
Be sure to connect circle icon to diamond icon and vice versa.
All SAS ports have SFF-8088 connectors. SAS cables are not included.
