Note: If additional cables are required, Order the Option Kit Number.
IMPORTANT: If you will be replacing an existing Smart Controller with the new Smart
Array 431 Controller without reconfiguring the arrays, it is recommended that all of the
drives are connected exactly as they were on the old controller (port 1 to port 1, controller
1 to controller 1, and so on).
External Cabling Instructions
One SCSI port may be available for connection to external storage devices,
depending on whether or not internal drives are connected to the Smart Array
431 Controller.
1.
On the rear of the server, connect the Offset VHDCI SCSI end of the
cable to the Compaq Smart Array 431 Controller.
2.
