SP Cables
The server contains two dual-redundant SPs (SP0 and SP1) on the front of the server.
One of the SPs functions as the Active SP to manage the server, and the other one
acts as a Standby SP that will assume the Active SP role in the event of an SP failure.
Note – Either SP (SP0 or SP1) can take the Active SP role. Do not assume that SP0
will take the Active SP role and that SP1 will take the Standby SP role.
