Connecting the 2104 to the Using System

1.Referring to your preinstallation planning information or 2104 configuration information, check how the 2104 is to be connected to the using system. Verify your configuration by referring to “Valid 2104 Model DU3 Configurations” on page 38.

2.Attach identification labels to the external SCSI signal cables (see the appropriate Adapters, Devices and Cables Information manual for details).

3.Refer to Figure 24.

 

Figure 24. Plug in the SCSI Signal Cable

4.

Plug the SCSI signal cables into the connectors 1 on the SCSI interface

 

cards.

 

Note: Each SCSI interface card can be attached to only one using system. A

 

2104 that has one SCSI interface card can be attached to only one using

 

system. A 2104 that has two SCSI interface cards can be attached to two

 

using systems running AIX. No SCSI terminators are needed.

 

5.

Tighten the retaining screws 2. You might need a small screwdriver to do this.

 

 

DO NOT USE A POWER-DRIVEN SCREWDRIVER.

 

6.

Ensure that all signal cables are correctly connected. An incorrect connection

 

 

can prevent the 2104 from becoming ready.
