Cabling for the HP Integrity rx8640 Server Dual Partition Configurations Step 5. Route the cables as shown in Figure 2-3 towards the front of the server and over to the Mass Storage Backplane connectors. WARNING The cables must be routed along the side of the server. They must not lay on top of the flat SCSI ribbon cable bundle or the PCI air dam. Doing so will damage the cables when the top is installed. Step 6. Unplug the existing SCSI ribbon cable for the top left HDD. This is the left most connector on the Mass Storage Backplane when viewed from the front of the server. See Figure 2-3 Step 7. Fold the SCSI connector on the ribbon cable so it will lay in front of the connector on the Mass Storage Backplane. See Figure 2-5. Figure 2-5 Folded SCSI Connector Step 8. Plug the new cable from the Smart Array card Port A2 into the mass storage connector for the top left drive. Step 9. Unplug the existing SCSI ribbon cable for the top right HDD. This is the second connector from the right on the Mass Storage Bacplane when viewed from the front of the server. See Figure 2-3 Step 10. Fold the SCSI connector on the ribbon cable so it will lay in front of the connector on the Mass Storage Backplane.See Figure 2-5. Step 11. Plug the new cable from the Smart Array card Port A1 into the mass storage connector for the top right drive. 18 Chapter 2

Step 5.
Route the cables as shown in Figure 2-3 towards the front of the server and over to the Mass
Storage Backplane connectors.
WARNING
The cables must be routed along the side of the server. They must not lay on
top of the flat SCSI ribbon cable bundle or the PCI air dam. Doing so will
damage the cables when the top is installed.
Step 6.
Unplug the existing SCSI ribbon cable for the top left HDD. This is the left most connector on the
Mass Storage Backplane when viewed from the front of the server. See Figure 2-3
Step 7.
Fold the SCSI connector on the ribbon cable so it will lay in front of the connector on the Mass
Storage Backplane. See Figure 2-5.
Figure 2-5 Folded SCSI Connector
Step 8.
Plug the new cable from the Smart Array card Port A2 into the mass storage connector for the top
left drive.
Step 9.
Unplug the existing SCSI ribbon cable for the top right HDD. This is the second connector from the
right on the Mass Storage Bacplane when viewed from the front of the server. See Figure 2-3
Step 10.
Fold the SCSI connector on the ribbon cable so it will lay in front of the connector on the Mass
Storage Backplane.See Figure 2-5.
Step 11.
Plug the new cable from the Smart Array card Port A1 into the mass storage connector for the top
right drive.
