You are creating a Logical Interconnect Group (LIG) that will be used to configure SAS connectivity. What is the maximum number of frames that can be inducted in this LIG?

Question

Options

• A2 frames
• B4 frames
• C3 frames
• D1 frame
• E5 frames

• B
  4% (1)
• C
  4% (1)
• D
  93% (26)

Explanation

When configuring a Logical Interconnect Group (LIG) for SAS connectivity in HPE Synergy, only 1 frame is supported - SAS modules (such as the HPE Synergy 12Gb SAS Connection Module) operate locally within a single frame, connecting compute modules to shared storage resources inside that same enclosure. SAS connectivity cannot span across multiple frames, which is why options A (2), C (3), B (4), and E (5) are all incorrect - those frame counts apply to other fabric types like Ethernet or Fibre Channel, which can form multi-frame Logical Interconnects. The key distinction is that SAS is a frame-local technology by design, whereas Ethernet LIGs can scale up to 5 frames in a multi-frame stack.

Memory tip: Think "SAS = Single frame, Always Stays local" - the "S" in SAS can remind you it's limited to 1 (singular) frame in a LIG.
