Storage Device Installation Guidelines
Consider the following guidelines when adding SCSI devices:
■
As a general rule, a maximum of seven devices may be added per
channel. Your server is equipped with two Wide Ultra3 SCSI channels.
■
The configuration settings on each SCSI device should be set to the
SCSI ID of the bay (Bay 0 = SCSI ID 0) that it will occupy.
■
If only one SCSI hard drive is used, it should be installed in the
lowest-numbered bay (0).
■
Be sure to remove all terminating jumpers from third-party SCSI
devices.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the equipment, make sure that the server is
powered down, all cables are disconnected from the back of the server, and the
power cord is disconnected from the grounded (earthed) AC outlet before
installing devices.
CAUTION:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components.
Make sure that you are properly grounded (earthed) before beginning any
installation procedure. See Appendix B, “Electrostatic Discharge,” for more
information.
