proLiant(2) This is a ProLiant Storage System.

proLiant2(3) This is a ProLiant-2 Storage System.

proLiant2Internal(4) This is an internal ProLiant-2 Storage System that is found in some servers.

proLiant2DuplexTop(5) This is the top portion of a ProLiant-2 Storage System that has dual SCSI busses which are duplexed.

proLiant2DuplexBottom(6) This is the bottom portion of a ProLiant-2 Storage System that has dual SCSI busses which are duplexed.

proLiant2InternalDuplexTop(7) This is the top portion of a ProLiant Server into which the internal SCSI busses are duplexed.

What is cpqSsBoxType?

This read-only enumerated value identifies the model family of an external drive box, such as ProLiant, ProLiant-2, or an internal ProLiant-2 storage system. Administrators use it to know what kind of storage enclosure they're managing without physically inspecting the hardware. For example, a value of proLiant2Internal(4) tells the admin the box is actually a storage bay built into the server chassis rather than an external enclosure.
