Yes - bottom of master cab to bottom of expansion cab.
Make sure you have the terminators at both ends of the EAB master/exp
Most important - the connection cable has "P1" at one end and "P2" at the other.
P1 end connects to the master cab
P2 end connects to the expansion cab

Re: EVA5000 2C12D UPGRADE TO 2C18D
NOT SUPPORTED disk bays in the expansion rack:
there is the disk placement limitation in the enclosures 14,15,17,18 which equals to the enclosure addresses 16, 17, 19, 20:
DO NOT install any drives in the bays 12-14 of these enclosures - use of these bays is not supported:
The reason is that some AL-PA of these bays conflict with the AL-PAs of the controllers and others conflict with the new 4GB back end loops switches
ONLINE ENCLOSURE addition is supported
yes it is supported:
Note:
should be done in off peak hours
steps:
...
1. install the disk enclosure to the rack but not connect the cables
2. insert/seat all the disk drives
3. connect AC power/wait for all disk drives to spin up
NOTE
the first drive in the drive enclosure could have orange drive failure icon lit. This is expected behaviour
4. verify that the EMU is showing 00 - this indicates, that the disk enclosure is not connecting to the EAB
5. verify that the power LEDs are steady on
6. verify that both A/B IO modules power LEDs are steady on and port 1, 2 are off
7. connect the new disk enclosure to I/O loop 1A
NOTE - AS LONG AS one I/O loop (1A or 1B) is operational, the storage system operation will not be interrupted. Therefore disconnect only one loop at a time.
8. verify all the LEDs
upper and lower port LEDs on I/O module A (steady on)
device port 1A on the controller steady on
NOTE
the orange drive failure icon on the first drive in the drive enclosure is turned off
9. verify the good status of the disk enclosure/disk drives via the Command view
10. connect the new disk enclosure to the I/O loop 1B
11. check all the status LEDs as whilst connecting to the I/O loop 1A
12. connect the newly added drive enclosure to the EAB
13. verify that the EMU displays a unique enclosure number
14. verify also the original enclosure continues to display its valid number
