4. Using one of the 6m cables from the expansion kit, connect P2 (I/O-A) on the middle disk
enclosure in the main rack to P1 (I/O-A) on the top disk enclosure in the expansion rack (1,

disk enclosure are not unplugged until cabling is complete on the first I/O module and you
have completed Step
6. Once you connect one I/O module (for example, A), verify the status of the I/O module A
ports and the presence of the newly added disk enclosures before you connect the other I/O
modules (in this example, B). Failure to complete this verification could result in potential loss
of data access for an extended period of time. Complete the following steps to verify:
