cable ordering.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury due to high-current electrical energy,
be sure that all power is completely disconnected at the source before beginning any power
connections to the power bus bars or power bus box.
WARNING: Be sure that all circuit breakers are locked in the off position before connecting
any power components.
To cable the system:
1. Connect the Onboard Administrator modules ("HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator cabling" on
page 44).
2. Connect the network cables to the interconnect modules. See the documentation that ships with the
interconnect modules, or the HP ProLiant BL System Best Practices Guide on the Documentation CD or
the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/bizsupport
).
3. Connect to the AC or DC power source in your facility and power up the enclosure.
