PV220 question ...

Ok, not strictly Linux but the machine that these are attached to runs 
Linux.

I have a PV200 that is currently configured with 2 EMMs and has been 
running in split bus mode.  I connected two different channels to each 
side for two
channels with 7 drives each.  That worked great. 

I now want to use one SCSI channel to access all 14 drives.  I know I 
need to use single bus mode.

The question is do I need to replace the second EMM with a special 
"Terminator Card" or can I just use an external SCSI terminator ?

The docs are not real clear.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
Alan

PS If I need the terminator card, anyone know the Dell part number so I 
can order some.
