Connecting external options, Installation procedure | IBM 220

Connecting external options

You can attach a SCSI storage expansion enclosure to your server if you install an optional SCSI adapter in one of the five PCI adapter slots on the system board.

Installation procedure

To attach an external device, do the following:

1.Read “Before you begin” on page 31 and the documentation that comes with your options.

2.Be sure that your server and all attached devices are turned off.

3.Follow the instructions that come with the option to prepare it for installation and to connect it to the server.

Note: If you are attaching a SCSI device, see “SCSI port” on page 67 for SCSI ID and cabling information.

I/O connector locations

The following illustration shows the external input/output connectors (ports) on the rear of the server. The SCSI and system-management connectors are internal and located on the system board (see “System-board internal cable connectors” on page 29 and “System-board option connectors” on page 28, respectively for connector locations). For pin assignments and other details about these connectors, see

“Input/output ports” on page 62.
