2.1 Setting Up a Syncro CS 9286-8e Two-Server Cluster Configuration
Follow these steps to set up the hardware for a Syncro CS 9286-8e configuration.
1. Unpack the Syncro CS 9286-8e controllers and the CVPM02 modules from the kit and inspect them for damage.
If any components of the kit appear to be damaged, or if any items are missing from the kit, contact your LSI
Customer and Technical Support representative.
2. Turn off the power to the server units, disconnect the power cords, and disconnect any network cables.
3. Remove the covers from the two server units.
Refer to the server documentation for instructions on how to do this.
4. Review the Syncro CS 9286-8e jumper settings and change them if necessary. Also note the location of the two
external Mini-SAS SFF8088 connectors J1A4 and J1B1.
You usually do not need to change the default factory settings of the jumpers. The following figure shows the
location of the jumpers and connectors on the controller board.
