If the Slot Was Previously Configured
If the slot that you installed the 6760 adapter in was previously configured for another
adapter, you get an Event Management Service (EMS) event message when you
install the 6760 adapter. A storage event number 1041 is generated and the 6760
adapter is not configured. For information about storage event 1041 and other storage
events, see Appendix C, SCF Storage Subsystem Events.
To delete the previous configuration of the slot, do the following:
1. Partially remove the 6760 adapter from the slot it is installed in.
2. Use the SCF INFO ADAPTER command to find out what adapter is currently
configured for that slot. For example:
-> INFO ADAPTER $ZZLAN.*
3. Delete that adapter from the system configuration database if you no longer plan
on using it. For example, if you want to install a 6760 adapter in slot 53 but slot 53
is configured for the adapter $ZZLAN.E4SA0, use SCF commands to do the
following:
a. Stop all operations on the adapter you want to delete. For example:
-> ABORT ADAPTER $ZZLAN.E4SA0, SUB ALL
b. Delete the adapter from the configuration database. For example:
-> DELETE ADAPTER $ZZLAN.E4SA0
4. Reinstall the 6760 adapter in the slot.
Now you are ready to connect the 6760 adapter to the external devices. Continue with
Connect External Devices on page 2-14.
Connect External Devices
Now that the 6760 adapter is installed and configured, you can connect cables from
the external devices to the SAC ports on the adapter.
Connecting a Fiber-Optic Cable to an F-SAC
Follow this procedure for each fiber-optic cable you are connecting to the adapter.
Install the connectors in the SACs starting with SAC 1 at the bottom of the adapter.
1. If you are using a K-series fiber-optic cable that you want to connect to a 6761
F-SAC, you must use a coupler to connect the K-series fiber-optic cable to a
NonStop S-series fiber-optic cable (which is required by the 6761 F-SAC). For
details about fiber-optic cables, see Fiber-Optic Cables and Connectors on
page 1-14.
2. Grasp the fiber-optic cable connector so that the raised keyway is on the left (see
Figure 2-6).
