Installing the A4800A Adapter

Looking at Adapter Installation

Chapter 2 23

Step 4. Locate the card separator/extractor slot where you intend to install the

adapter.

Step 5. Remove the blank panel aligned with the PCI slot you intend to use. If

the blank panel has a bracket screw, save it for reuse during the

installation.

Step 6. Following the instructions in the server manual, insert the adapter into

an available PCI slot.

The adapter is keyed to be inserted in only one way. The components on

the adapter may face the opposite way from other boards on the system.

NOTE If the internal bus is not connected to any peripherals it MUST be

terminated using the supplied low proﬁle, internal terminator.

Step 7. Verify that the connectors on the adapter and the bus converter are

aligned properly and ﬁrmly seated. The card’s bracket should ﬁt where

the blank panel was removed. Secure the bracket with the bracket screw

from the blank panel, if there is one. Note that, for N-Class systems, a

screw is not used to secure the card.

NOTE If the adapter will only be used with internal SCSI devices, install the

A4700-67098 (1252-6520) differential terminator into the external port.

Step 8. Connect peripheral devices and terminate the SCSI bus.

NOTE A cable for connecting the PCI Ultra SCSI Host Bus Adapter to a disk

tray A or B port connector is supplied with the A5068A product. Cables

for connecting external devices are not supplied with the controller and

must be purchased separately.

Step 9. Set the SCSI ID, if needed.

The default SCSI ID is 7. To change this to a different value for

High-Availability (HA) applications, you must use the Boot Console

Handler (BCH). There are no SCSI address switches or jumpers. You
