Details on possible uses of the alternative loading options:
The alternative two cell blade partition with cell blades in slots 7 and 8 in enclosure 1 (shown in
the light blue) is provided to allow 2 3-blade partition and 1 2-blade partition to co-exist in the
same enclosure. The alternative two cell blade partition in slots 4 and 8 (bright green) is provided
to support a two cell blade partition if two alternative three blade partitions are used. The alternative
three cell blade partition in slots 4,6, and 8 allows both a 5 cell blade and 3 cell blade partition
to co-exist in the same enclosure.
Example 1: 3 nPartitions: nPar1 = 6 blades, nPar2 = 4 blades, nPar3 = 2 blades
nPar1: Blades = enclosure 1/slots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7
nPar2: Blades =enclosure 2/slots 1, 3, 5, 7
nPar 3: Blades = enclosure 2/slots 2, 4
