Configuration Guidelines

Use the following guidelines for installing and cabling or reconfiguring your system.

■

Do not exceed a SCSI bus length of 25 meters.

■

Make sure that the last Sun StorEdge A3000 controller module in any daisy chain
has a total of two terminators, one in each SCSI OUT port.

■

If you are adding a controller module to an already existing configuration, halt all
activity on the SCSI bus before removing any SCSI cables.

■

Once you finish cabling the devices and powering on, reboot the system by
typing

boot -r

at the

ok

prompt before beginning any SCSI bus activity.

Perform a system check to make sure that SCSI connections are secure. Look for fault
LEDs on the hardware or error messages in the RAID Manager GUI.

Note –

Refer to your server and rack documentation for instructions on grounding

the StorEdge A3500 cabinet.
