Abstract

Techniques provide communication between storage processors (SPs) of a storage array. The techniques involve electrically coupling the SPs with an interconnect of the storage array. The techniques further involve electrically coupling a storage device having dual on-device controllers with the interconnect. The techniques further involve establishing a communications pathway between the SPs through the interconnect and the storage device having the dual on-device controllers while the SPs are electrically coupled with the interconnect and while the storage device is electrically coupled with the interconnect.
