Checking cables

Procedure

  1. If you are installing Rack-2, at the rear of each I/O enclosure gently push on each PCIe cable (P1-C7-T1 and P1-C7-T2; also P1-C7-T5 or P1-C7-T6, if present) to ensure that it is fully seated and latched. See Figure 1.

    Note: I/O enclosure PCIe storage interface card (locations C3 and C6) not shown.
    Note: The older generation I/O enclosure PCIe and PCN card might not include T3, T4, and T10 ports.
  2. At the rear of the rack, ensure all power cables that are connected to each power distribution unit connector J1-J12 are fully seated. Figure 2.
