Re: adding a shelf to an AFF220

Hey Randy

It’s exactly that. You take the return cable from the A side and connect it to the new shelf and the new shelf back to the controller. After this you see the new shelf single-pathed in the console. After that you do the same on the B side and you are multi-pathed all the way. I’ve done this dozens of times on live systems
