Connectivity topology

The E1012 and E1024 support single and dual expansion module configurations. Standard models of the E1012 and E1024 ship with one or two expansion modules (see Table 2). Single module configurations can be upgraded to dual module configurations non-disruptively.

Each expansion module has two 6 Gb SAS x4 ports (Mini-SAS SFF-8088 connectors) labeled IN and OUT. These ports are used for connections to a supported RAID adapter installed in a server and for daisy chaining the E1012 and E1024 enclosures between each other. The external port on the RAID controller is connected to the IN port on the expansion module, and the OUT port on the expansion module is connected to the IN port on the expansion module in the adjacent enclosure and so on.

Single I/O module configurations can be used with a supported RAID adapter or HBA. In this topology, each port on the adapter is connected to a separate chain of single I/O expansion enclosures, as illustrated in the following figure.


Figure 5. Single I/O module connectivity topology

Dual I/O module configurations can be used with 2-port RAID adapters for high availability and performance. In this topology, each port on the RAID adapter is connected to a different I/O module chain within the same chain of dual I/O enclosures.

Dual I/O connectivity topology without enclosure redundancy is shown in the following figure.

Dual I/O connectivity topology with enclosure redundancy is shown in the following figure.

Warranty

The E1012 and E1024 have a three-year parts only warranty with 9x5/next business day (NBD) terms. Lenovo offers the service upgrades through warranty maintenance upgrades and post-warranty maintenance agreements with a well-defined scope of services, including service hours, response time, term of service, and service agreement terms and conditions.

Lenovo warranty service upgrade offerings are region-specific. Not all warranty service upgrades are available in every region. For more information about Lenovo warranty service upgrade offerings that are available in your region, go to the Lenovo Data Center Solution Configurator (DCSC):
http://dcsc.lenovo.com

The following table explains warranty service definitions for the E1012 and E1024 enclosures.

Table 8. Warranty service definitions
Term Description
On-site service A service technician will arrive at the client location for equipment service.
24x7x4 hour A service technician is scheduled to arrive at the client location within four hours after remote problem determination is completed. Lenovo provides service around the clock, every day, including Lenovo holidays.
9x5x4 hour A service technician is scheduled to arrive at the client location within four business hours after remote problem determination is completed. Lenovo provides service 8:00 am - 5:00 pm in the client's local time zone, Monday-Friday, excluding Lenovo holidays. For example, if a customer reports an incident at 3:00 pm on Friday, the technician will arrive by 10:00 am the following Monday.
9x5 next business day A service technician is scheduled to arrive at the client location on the business day after remote problem determination is completed. Lenovo provides service 8:00 am - 5:00 pm in the client's local time zone, Monday - Friday, excluding Lenovo holidays. Calls received after 4:00 pm local time require an extra business day for service dispatch. Next business day service is not guaranteed.

In general, the types of Lenovo warranty service upgrades for the E1012 and E1024 are as follows:

  • Warranty and maintenance service upgrades:
    • Onsite support for 9x5 NBD coverage
    • 4-hour target response time with onsite, 9x5 or 24x7 service coverage
    • Up to five years of warranty extension for all service levels in one or two year increments
  • Hard Drive Retention

    Lenovo's Hard Drive Retention service is a multi-drive hard drive retention offering that ensures your data is always under your control, regardless of the number of hard drives that are installed in your Lenovo system. In the unlikely event of a hard drive failure, you retain possession of your hard drive while Lenovo replaces the failed drive part. Your data stays safely on your premises, in your hands. The Hard Drive Retention service can be purchased in convenient bundles with our warranty upgrades and extensions.
