Installing the RAID Controller

If you are adding the DAC960PDU controller to an existing system, you must install and cable the controller. Refer to The Installing an Option Board section in the Upgrades and Options chapter of this guide to install the controller in PCI slot P05. Once you have installed the controller, perform the following cabling procedure.

1.Power off the system.

2.Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this chapter.

3.Remove the left side panel as described in Chapter 5 “Removing a Side Panel”.

4.Carefully remove the ultra wide SCSI interface cable connector from its connector on lower right- hand side of the system board (see Figure A-1, J).

5.Route the ultra wide SCSI interface cable (just removed from the lower right-hand side of the system board) up to the RAID controller and plug it into the channel 0 connector on the RAID controller board (see Figure A-4).

6.Replace the left side panel, power on the system and run the DACCF utility to configure your new RAID array (refer to Configuring the RAID Controller).
