Starting the Enclosure
With the enclosure installed in a rack or tower it is necessary to:
1. Connect the SCSI bus cables.
2. Apply power.
3. Verify proper operation.
Connecting the SCSI Bus Cables
Connecting the enclosure to a host adapter or SCSI bus controller is simply a matter of
connecting cables to the I/O module. All I/O modules has 68-pin, very high density
computer interface (VHDCI) connectors.
Figure 2–1 shows the cable connectors for a single bus configuration.
CAUTION: Connecting or disconnecting a SCSI bus cable while data is being
transferred causes the loss of data.
To prevent inducing an error,
always quiesce the SCSI bus before connecting or
disconnecting a cable.
