1. Use the power verification and addressing (PVA) module ID switch to set the
SCSI ID number for the BA370 rack-mountable enclosure.
See “Setting the PVA Module ID Switch,” page 5–29, for details about PVA
switch settings.
2. Remove the program card ESD cover, and insert the controller’s program card.
Replace the ESD cover.
3. Turn on the power to the enclosure by turning on the ac input boxes.
4. Establish a local connection to the controller.
See “Establishing a Local Connection to the Controller,” page 5–33, for details
about creating a local connection.
5. If the controller reports a node ID of all zeros (0000-0000-0000-0000), set the
subsystem worldwide name (node ID) to the worldwide name that came with
your subsystem. See “Restoring Worldwide Names (Node IDs),” page 3–17.
