X2-SC1-PSU-R and X2-SC2-PSU-R
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

In preparation for a single-to-dual online cluster expansion, the power cables that are pre-staged by being connected to Power Distribution Unit B (PDU-B) only are for the right-side Power Supply Units (PSUs) of the Storage Controllers (SCs). Specifically, these would be the power cables for X2-SC1-PSU-R and X2-SC2-PSU-R. This configuration ensures that there is a balanced power distribution across the PDUs and that the new cluster components will have power connectivity once they are physically installed1.

The process typically involves:

Identifying the correct power cables for the SCs' PSUs.

Connecting these cables to the designated ports on PDU-B.

Ensuring that the cables are properly managed and labeled for easy identification during the expansion process.

This procedure is part of the standard practices for expanding an XtremIO cluster, as detailed in the Official Dell XtremIO Maintenance Achievement document1.
