Designating the Server as a Maintenance Terminal
A server must be connected to the storage controller to provide a maintenance
terminal.
NOTE: Only one server should be designated as the maintenance server. It is recommended
that a separate stand-alone server that is not part of the cluster be designated as the
maintenance server.
To connect the server to the storage controller (see Figure 2-2):
1. Connect the RJ-12 connector on the communications cable to the maintenance
port (1) on the storage controller.
2. Connect the 9-pin serial connector on the communications cable to either the
COM1 or COM2 port (2) on the server.
NOTE: Be careful to note which serial port is used. This information will be needed when
setting up the communications program and configuring the controller.
