AlphaServer ES47/ES80/GS1280 Server Management CLI Reference
3.52 show cables
Displays the cabling configuration. This command shows the physical cabling layout.
Interprocessor (IP) cables connect external 8P pairs of CPU routing ports. The six IP ports are
two North, two South, one East and one West. There are eight IO cables in a drawer. Each
corresponds to an IO7.
For IP cables, each system building block is labeled "SBB(c, d)," where "c" is the cabinet number
and "d" is the drawer number in that cabinet. Connections are indicated by dashes. Each pair of
matching symbols indicates a wrap-around. "X" means wrong connection and "x" means
expected but missing connection. "?" means unknown cable status.
For IO cables, dashes indicate a connection between the IOR and the IO port of the CPU.
Otherwise, there is no connection.
There are four IORs per Expanded I/O shelf; otherwise, there is only one IOR per standard PCI
drawer.
