Steps
1. Use the cable labels to reconnect the cables in the same configuration as they were before starting the replacement
procedure.
CAUTION:
When connecting SAS cables to the SAS cards, ensure there is sufficient slack in the cable to
avoid unnecessary strain on the cable connector and the SAS card when the controller is fully extended from
the rack.
