They expect to have exclusive control over 'their' disks.

But what i don't understand is that when you config the raid on one card using saconfig, how does the other card know what array configuration the other one has? <BR /><BR />Or do i need to use regular u320 scsi cards instead of the 6402 and use mirrordisk?<BR /> Wed, 09 Nov 2005 11:55:06 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/msa30-mi-and-6402-raid-array-cards-failover-questions/m-p/3667966#M18386 Hansel777 2005-11-09T11:55:06Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/msa30-mi-and-6402-raid-array-cards-failover-questions/m-p/3667967#M18387 No, I don't thnik you can run two backplane RAID controllers on the same set of disks.
