placed in the enclosure to the left of the server blade (maximum of eight server blades and eight storage
blades).
When using full-height server blades, the storage blade must be placed into the lower slot in the enclosure to
the left of the server blade. Placing the storage blade to the top left slot of the enclosure causes a partner
device error. You can have a half-height server blade in the slot to the top-left of a full-height server blade
while a storage blade is to the lower left of the full-height server blade.
Full-height server blades require a mezzanine card to communicate with the appropriate storage blade. If a
storage blade is placed correctly next to a full-height server blade but the server blade is missing the proper
mezzanine card, then a Configuration error (not a Partner Device Error) occurs.
If power to a server blade is disconnected, power to the associated storage blade is also disconnected.
