Designating the Server as a Maintenance Terminal

Connect a server to the storage controller to designate a maintenance terminal (refer

to Figure 2-1).

NOTE: Designate only one server as the maintenance server.

To connect the server to the storage controller:

1. Connect the RJ-12 connector (1) on the communications cable to the

maintenance port on the storage controller.

2. Connect the 9-pin serial connector (2) on the communications cable to either the

COM1 or COM2 port on the server.

NOTE: Note which serial port you use. You will need this information when setting up the

communications program and configuring the controller.
