Configure the Cable Covers on the CMAs
To accommodate the volume of cables routed through the cable management
arms (CMAs) of the Controllers, you might have to replace the standard cable
covers on the CMAs with the large cable covers.
The large cable covers are included in the packaging. As a guideline, replace the
standard cable covers with the large cable covers for Oracle FS Systems with
eight SAS cables connected to the SAS HBAs on each Controller. For larger
systems configured with three SAS HBAs per Controller, you can remove the
cable covers completely from the CMAs to allow for the volume of SAS cables.
1
Open the cable cover currently attached to the Controller CMA.
2
Pull the cover off of the CMA.
Start at one end of the cable cover and work towards the other end of the
cable cover as you pry off the cable cover.
3
Snap the pins of the large cover into place on the CMA.
For systems with three SAS HBAs per Controller, leave the cable cover off
of the CMA.
4
Repeat these steps for the partner Controller.
