Lights of the Advanced SerialRAID Adapters

Each pair of connectors has a green light that indicates the operational status of its
related loop:

Status of Light Meaning

Off

Both SSA connectors are inactive. If disk drives or other SSA
adapters are connected to these connectors, either those disk drives
or adapters are failing, or their SSA links are not active.

Permanently on

Both SSA links are active (normal operating condition).

Slow Flash

Only one SSA link is active.

Port Addresses of the Advanced SerialRAID Adapters

The port addresses used in some SRNs that relate to these adapters can be numbers 0
through 3. They correspond to the port connectors on the SSA adapter:

0 = Connector A1
1 = Connector A2
2 = Connector B1
3 = Connector B2

SSA Adapter ID during Bring-Up

All adapters that can be used on RISC using systems generate a three-digit
configuration program indicator number. During system bring-up, this indicator number
appears on the three-digit display of the using system. The numbers are:
