I have these components NetApp IOM12 (2) inside DS4243 connecting to Dell PE R620 with 2 H830 and 1 Dell HHJD7 ASA-80165H Quad port

I need some instructions or guidance on how to cable these components together to get the server to see the NetApp box....I am not sure I want to run an actual RAID, but I definitely would like the server to see the NetApp box as JBOD set up....can someone please provide me this guidance?

There's a few red flags, here...

First, an IOM12 shelf module is not supported in a DS4243 chassis.

Second, a DS4243 (or any NetApp shelf) cannot be connected as a JBOD to any arbitrary host.
NetApp shelves are only attached to NetApp FAS or AFF controllers.

This is probably for a homelab type setup.

I typically point people at reddit and the /r/homelab sub for this type of question.

Some folks might be able to answer this question on this forum, but keep in mind that this isn't anything netapp support.
