Subsequently, use the DE diagnosis cable provided with the additional disk
enclosure or the DE diagnosis cable of the separately priced DE cable
(NF9120-SJ04E). Push the connector at either end of the DE diagnosis cable into
the DE-DIAG connector [PORT1] on adapter 0 (ADP0) of the existing disk
enclosure until a click is heard. The DE diagnosis cable has the same connectors at
both ends. Either connector may be connected to the adapter of the existing disk
enclosure.
Push the connector at the other end of the DE diagnosis cable into the DE-DIAG
connector [PORT0] on adapter 0 (ADP0) of the additional disk enclosure until a
click is heard.
Similarly, connect the DE-DIAG connector [PORT1] on adapter 1 (ADP0) of the
existing disk enclosure to the DE-DIAG connector [PORT0] on adapter 1 (ADP1) of
the additional disk enclosure.
(4) Setting of switches
a)
Setting of AL-PA switch on array controller
Set AL-PA by using the AL-PA switch on each controller.
The factory-set AL-PA switch is as follows:
CONT0: 00, CONT1: 01
Set AL-PA so that it may not be the same as that of another FibreChannel
device in the same host FC loop.
The corresponding table between the AL-PA switch and AL-PA is shown on
the next page.
b)
Setting of AL-PA switch on disk enclosure
Set the AL-PA by using the AL-PA switch on each adapter.
Set the AL-PA so that it may not be the same as that of another disk enclosure
on the same FC loop.
Set the AL-PA switches of both the adapters installed in the first disk enclosure
connected to the array controller via FC cable (HSSDC) to "0". If additional
disk enclosures are added, set the AL-PA switches of the adapters installed in
each additional disk enclosure to "1", "2", ..., "5", or "6" in the connection
order.
When the AL-PA switches of the left and right adapters are set differently, the
FAULT LEDs on the adapters flash and the disk enclosure is not started. If
different values are set for the AL-PA switches, turn off the power of the
system including the disk enclosure, reset the AL-PA values properly, and turn
on the power again.
c)
Setting of DE-DIAG ID switch on disk enclosure
Set "0" for all the DE-DIAG IDs of the adapters installed in the disk enclosure
that is connected with the standard controller in the array controller via the FC
cable (HSSDC).
If an additional control card (NF2300-SP02E) is installed in the array
controller, set "1" for all the DE-DIAG IDs of the adapters installed in the disk
