21. Cable Block to Target System
After applying power to the enclosures, if the LEDs on a PMF CRU or IOMF CRU
remain unlit, see CRU Does Not Start on page 7-6.
21. Cable Block to Target System
21.1 Install Components on Target System If Necessary
The target system might require components such as extra SEBs or MSEBs to
accommodate the block you are adding. Install these components now.

Cautions. After the AC power cord on the target system or any enclosure in the block is
connected to an AC power source, do not unplug and replug it. If you do, see AC Power Cord
Was Unplugged or Replugged on page 7-2.
