P4800 and support for additional SAS Switches + MDS600 for DAS Storage ?

[chuckk281]

Friedrich had a storage controller question:

***********************

In a P4800 configuration, do we support additional SAS Switches + MDS600 for a VDI DAS Storage ?

Customer want to add non-persistent VDI VMs DAS Storage to the existing P4800/C7000 System.

Do we support 4 SAS Switches within a C7000 ?

2 SAS Switches for P4800 (includes MDS600)

2 SAS Switches for DAS Storage MDS600

*******************

from Alex:

***********************

Yes you can have 2 sets of SAS switches on a C7000. You just need to ensure the RAID cards in the VM hosts are in the correct mezzanine slots to map to the 2nd SAS switch.

Any comments or quesitons? Have you used this configuration?
