Technical data

Channel adapters, hubs (if necessary), cables, and network adapters) have
been installed, you can connect your host bus adapter to the UltraSCSI
hub or storage subsystem.
Follow the steps in Table 9–1 to start the TruCluster Server hardware
installation procedure. You can save time by installing the Memory Channel
adapters, redundant network adapters (if applicable), and KZPSA-BB or
KZPBA-CB SCSI adapters all at the same time.
Follow the directions in the referenced documentation, or the steps in the
referenced tables for the particular SCSI host bus adapter, returning to the
appropriate table when you have completed the steps in the referenced table.
After you complete installing host bus adapters, Memory Channel adapters,
and network adapters, see Chapter 10 and connect your cluster member
systems to shared storage.
_____________________ Caution _____________________
Static electricity can damage modules and electronic components.
We recommend using a grounded antistatic wrist strap and a
grounded work surface when handling modules.

SCSI Adapter
Step
Action Refer to:
1
Install the Memory Channel modules,
cables, and hubs (if a hub is required).
Chapter 5
a
2
Install Ethernet or FDDI network
adapters.
User’s guide for the applicable
Ethernet or FDDI adapter,
and the user’s guide for the
applicable system
Install ATM adapters if using ATM. See the documentation that came
with the ATM adapter
3
Install a KZPSA-BB PCI SCSI adapter or
KZPBA-CB UltraSCSI adapter for each
shared SCSI bus in each member system:
—
Internally terminated host bus adapter
for radial connection to DWZZH
UltraSCSI hub:
Section 9.1.1 and Table 9–2
Externally terminated host bus adapter: Section 9.1.2 Table 9–3
a
If you install additional KZPSA-BB or KZPBA-CB SCSI adapters or an extra network adapter at this time,
delay testing the Memory Channel until you have installed all hardware.
