Compaq ProLiant Storage System /U User Guide
Cabling
Cabling requirements vary depending on the system configuration. See your
specific system configuration below for cabling instructions.
Rack-Mountable Systems
To ensure that the cabling in the back of a rack system does not interfere with
system operation or maintenance, follow these suggestions for cable
management on those systems. See Figure 2-10.
This configuration will allow removal of either hot-pluggable power supply in
redundant power supply systems without disturbing system operation. With the
cables out of the way, status indicators will be easily visible.
■
All cables, including SCSI and power, for each storage system should be
bundled together along the plane of the top of the system. Use one or
more cable ties to hold the cables together securely at the back of
the unit.
■
All cables should run through the cable channel on the left side of
the rack.
■
Tie the cable bundle securely to the cable channel to relieve the stress on
the connectors at the back of the storage system.
