Complete the following steps to cable an ASM interconnect network:
1. Follow the instructions for cabling a C2T chain.
2. Connect an ASM interconnect module (which comes with the Remote
Supervisor Adapter) to the RS-485 connector on the Remote Supervisor Adapter
in the first server. If the network contains more than 23 servers, do the same on
the 24th server.
3. Connect an ASM link cable (which comes with the Remote Supervisor Adapter)
from the ASM interconnect module to the ISM connector in the first computer.
Insert a terminator into the second connector on the ASM interconnect module.
If the network contains more than 23 servers, do the same on the 24th server.
Updating the server configuration
When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal
option or an external SCSI device, you might see a message telling you that the
configuration has changed. The Configuration/Setup Utility program automatically
starts so that you can save the new configuration information. See “Using the
Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 10 for more information.
