11. Install the adapter:
a. Carefully grasp the adapter by its top edge or upper corners, and align it
with the expansion slot on the system board.
b. Press the adapter firmly into the expansion slot.
Attention: When you install an adapter in the server, be sure that it is
completely and correctly seated in the system-board connector. Incomplete
insertion might cause damage to the system board or the adapter.
c. Lower the adapter-retention tab over the top corner of the adapter. When
the adapter-retention tab is completely closed, the adapter-retention latch
snaps (locks) into place.
12. If you installed a full-length adapter, move the adapter locking lever to the
locked (closed) position on the adapter-support bracket as indicated by the
arrows.
13. Connect any needed cables to the adapter.
14. If you installed a non-hot-plug adapter, continue with the next step.
If you installed a hot-plug adapter or used the hot-add feature, enable the
PCI-X slot from your operating system. (See the documentation that comes
with your operating system for information about enabling a hot-plug PCI-X
slot.) Make sure that the power-on LED for the hot-plug PCI-X slot comes on.
If the power-on LED does not come on, see “Identifying problems using status
LEDs” on page 30.
15. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, go to
“Completing the installation” on page 104.
Cabling a RAID or SCSI adapter
You can install an optional RAID or SCSI adapter in your server to control the
internal hot-swap hard disk drives, for example, so that you can configure the
internal hot-swap hard disk drives into disk arrays. The illustrations in this section
show the cabling for internal hot-swap hard disk drives. You can also cable a RAID
or SCSI adapter to external hard disk drives. See your RAID or SCSI adapter
option documentation for complete instructions about installing a RAID or SCSI
adapter in your server and for additional information about RAID or SCSI adapters.
Your server comes with one SCSI cable. One end of this cable is attached to the
connector on the standard SCSI backplane, and the other end is attached to the
internal SCSI channel connector (J15) on the system board.
The following procedures describe the single-channel cable routing that is
necessary when you install a RAID or SCSI adapter. The illustrations in this section
are examples. The cabling that you use for your server depends on your system
configuration.
Notes:
1. For details on connecting two SCSI channels, see “Working with the optional
xSeries 6-Pack Hot-Swap Hard Drive Expansion Kit” on page 61.
2. See the documentation that comes with your adapter for any cabling
instructions.
3. Cable identifiers are printed on the cables that come with your server and
options. Use these identifiers to connect the cables to the correct connectors.
For example, the hard disk drive cables are labeled “HDD option.”
