Best practices for integrating cable and system placement

These guidelines ensure that your system and its cables have optimal clearance for maintenance and
other operations. The guidelines also provide guidance in correctly cabling your system and using the
appropriate cables.
The following guidelines provide cabling information for installing, migrating, relocating, or upgrading
your system:
v Position drawers in racks to allow enough space, where possible, for routing cableson the bottom and
top of the rack, and between drawers.
v Shorter drawers are not placed between longer drawers in the rack (for example, do not place a 19-inch
drawer between two 24-inch drawers).
v When a specific cable plugging sequence is required, for example, for concurrent maintenance
(symmetric multiprocessing cables), label the cables appropriately and note the sequence order.
v To facilitate cable routing, install cables in the following order:
1. System power control network (SPCN) cables
2. Power cables
3. Communications (serial-attached SCSI, InfiniBand, remote input/output, and peripheral component
interconnect express) cables
Note: Install and route the communications cables, starting with the smallest diameter first and
then progressing to the largest diameter. This applies to installing them into the cable management
arm and retaining them to the rack, brackets, and other features that may be provided for cable
management.

Recovery steps
1. Verify that power cords are plugged in correctly in
the following locations:
v Drawer
v Power distribution unit (PDU), if applicable
v Battery backup unit (BBU), if applicable
v Input source power receptacle
2. Verify that the power supplies are seated and latched
into position.
Ensure that you are using the correct power voltage.
Refer to your server's specifications to learn more about
the power voltage that your server requires.
These errors are often caused by ports that are not used.
Every port must have a cable or wrap plug installed.
Whenever a cable is not installed, ensure that a wrap
plug is installed for each unused port. Wrap plugs are
shipped automatically when a Fibre Channel feature
code is ordered.
Ensure that you have entered the correct IP address.
