SCv3020 and 2xR640 - SAS connected, multipath on ESXi issue

Hi All, I have an issue with initial config of my set for Virtualisation. Both servers have Dell 12Gbps SAS HDA adapters (2 ports). Connected as Two SAS Fault Domains - 1st port to top controller, 2nd port to bottom. Installed ESXi Dell Customized. ALUA set to RR. In Storage Devices in Paths one is Active (I/O) and second Standby. Do I need to have 2 HBA adapters to make this Active/Active or I have issue with config? Many thanks for replies! M

Hello M_PL,

Here is a link to the deployment guide, I would check to make sure that you have everything setup correctly as the cable map is on page 45. https://topics-cdn.dell.com/pdf/storage-scv3000_deployment-guide_en-us.pdf

With an SCv3020 there is not a way to have an Active Active on the controllers.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
