Replacing a SAS cable

This topic describes how to replace a SAS cable.
About this task
Be careful when you are replacing the hardware components that are located in the

you are not instructed to remove.
To replace a SAS cable, perform the following steps:
Procedure
1. Record which SAS cable is plugged into the specific port of the expansion
canister. The cable must be inserted back into the same port after the
replacement is complete; otherwise, the system cannot function properly.
Note: If you are replacing a single cable, this step is not necessary.
2. Pull the tab with the arrow away from the connector.
