Drives are missing
from the show
config display.
Drives have
duplicate SCSI IDs.
Correct SCSI IDs.
Note: Internal hard disk drives are
automatically assigned SCSI IDs 0,
1, 2, and 3 (from left to right for
pedestal systems; and bottom to top
for rackmount systems). The
onboard controller is assigned SCSI
ID 7, and the CD-ROM, SCSI ID 4.
SCSI bus not
properly
terminated.
Check the following jumpers and
terminator to ensure that proper
termination is provided for all
internal SCSI devices.
The SCSI terminator jumper
(J51) on the system
motherboard should be set to
“on.” Refer to Appendix A.
The J5 jumper on the hard disk
drive backplane should be set
as shown in Appendix A.
The cable terminator at the end
of the SCSI removable media
cable should be properly
seated.
For controllers other than the
onboard controller, the
pk*0_soft_term environment
variable is used to enable/disable
SCSI terminators. Refer to
Table 6-1.
