6. Install the outer connector of the lower CMA assembly (
9
) to the outer member of the right support
rail
10
, as shown in Figure 54 on page 54.
7. Attach the support rail connector on the lower CMA assembly (
11
) to the connector on the left
support rail (
12
), as shown in Figure 54 on page 54.
Ensure that the lower CMA assembly is securely attached to the hooks on the end of the support rails.
8. Route the cables and power cords on the CMA. If needed, secure them with cable ties or hook-and-
loop fasteners.
Notes:
• Use the cable straps that are provided on the rear of the system to retain the cables and prevent
them from sagging.
• Allow slack in all of the cables to avoid tension in the cables as the CMA moves.
9. Reconnect the power cords and other cables, as needed.
Removing and installing a SAS cable: 2077-92F, 2077-A9F
Use the following procedures to attach SAS cables to the 2077-92F, 2077-A9F enclosure during the initial
installation process. You can also remove a faulty SAS cable and replace it with a new one received from
FRU stock.
About this task
Be careful when you are replacing the hardware components that are located in the back of the system.
Do not inadvertently disturb or remove any cables that you are not instructed to remove.
If you replace more than one cable, record which two ports, canisters, and enclosures each cable
connects, so you can match the connections with the replacement cables. The system cannot operate if
the SAS cabling to the expansion enclosure is incorrect.
When the 2077-92F, 2077-A9F expansion enclosure is installed in the rack, the expansion canisters are
upside down. The input cable connects to the right port (port 1) on the expansion canister. The output
cable connects to the left port (port 2) on the canister.
Procedure
Removing a SAS cable
1. Locate the connector at the end of the SAS cable that is to be removed from the expansion enclosure.
2. Grasp the connector by its blue tag. Pull the tag.
3. Release the connector and slide it out of the SAS port.
4. Repeat steps “2” on page 55 and “3” on page 55 on the other end of the SAS cable.
Replacing a SAS cable
5. Ensure that the SAS connector is oriented correctly, as shown in Figure 55 on page 56. The blue tab
must face towards the top of the enclosure canister.
