1.3.1 Connecting the Cable
To connect a maintenance terminal to a RAID controller follow these steps:
1. Locate the connecting cable that came with the RAID subsystem. It has an RJ12
connector (similar to standard telephone plug) on one end and a 9-pin serial
connector on the other end.
2. Plug the serial connector into the 9-pin serial port/com port 1 of the maintenance
terminal. If a 9-pin serial port is not available, use the 9-pin to 25-pin adapter
(P/N: 12-45238-01) supplied with your StorageWorks RAID Array 450 Subsystem.
3. Plug the RJ12 connector from the maintenance terminal into the maintenance port on
the RAID Array 410 controller (see Figure 1–1).
4. Set the terminal communications parameters to:
•
9600 baud
•
8 bits
•
1 stop bit
•
No parity
