Cabling for the HP Integrity rx8640 Server Dual Partition Configurations Step 4. Plug the end of one of the cables with the pull-tab into the SCSI connector Port A2 on the Smart Array card (Port 1 is near the rear of the server). Repeat for SCSI connector Port A1 (Port 2 is near the center of the board). Step 5. Route the cables as shown in Figure 2-7 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 PCI card cage and PCI fans. They must not lay on top of the PCI fans or the PCI air dam. Doing so will damage the cables. Step 6. Unplug the existing SCSI ribbon cable for the bottom left HDD. This is the second connector from the left on the Mass Storage Backplane when viewed from the front of the server. See Figure 2-7 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. 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 right most connector on the Mass Storage Bacplane when viewed from the front of the server. See Figure 2-7 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. Step 12. Arrange the new cables as shown in Figure 2-7 so that all of the slack is located in the PCI card cage. The cables must be routed behind the removable media cable bundle and to the side of the air dam as shown. Step 13. Loop the cable slack as shown in Figure 2-7. Step 14. Use the Kwik Wrap ties to secure the cables in the chassis and to maintain the slack. One tie should secure the cables to the PCI card cage through the lift handle Step 15. Arrange the new cables as shown in Figure 2-7 so that all of the slack is located in the PCI card cage. Step 16. Loop the cable slack as shown in Figure 2-7. Use the Kwik Wraps to fasten the cables in place and maintain the slack (this allows servicing of the other PCI cards). 20 Chapter 2

Step 4.
Plug the end of one of the cables with the pull-tab into the SCSI connector Port A2 on the Smart
Array card (Port 1 is near the rear of the server). Repeat for SCSI connector Port A1 (Port 2 is near
the center of the board).
Step 5.
Route the cables as shown in Figure 2-7 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 PCI card cage and PCI fans.
They must not lay on top of the PCI fans or the PCI air dam. Doing so will
damage the cables.
Step 6.
Unplug the existing SCSI ribbon cable for the bottom left HDD. This is the second connector from
the left on the Mass Storage Backplane when viewed from the front of the server. See Figure 2-7
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.
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 right most connector on
the Mass Storage Bacplane when viewed from the front of the server. See Figure 2-7
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.
Step 12.
Arrange the new cables as shown in Figure 2-7 so that all of the slack is located in the PCI card
cage. The cables must be routed behind the removable media cable bundle and to the side of the air
dam as shown.
Step 13.
Loop the cable slack as shown in Figure 2-7.
Step 14.
Use the Kwik Wrap ties to secure the cables in the chassis and to maintain the slack. One tie
should secure the cables to the PCI card cage through the lift handle
Step 15.
Arrange the new cables as shown in Figure 2-7 so that all of the slack is located in the PCI card
cage.
Step 16.
Loop the cable slack as shown in Figure 2-7. Use the Kwik Wraps to fasten the cables in place and
maintain the slack (this allows servicing of the other PCI cards).
