Cabling for the HP Integrity rx7640 Server Recabling for RAID Step 9. Carefully route the round SCSI cable through the cable guide attached to the system backplane to the front of the server. The cable follows the same path as the flat SCSI ribbon cable already installed in the server. See Figure 5-3. Figure 5-3 SCSI Cable Routed Through Cable Guide Step 10. Unplug the existing SCSI ribbon cable for the top left HDD and fold the SCSI connector on the ribbon cable so it will lay in front of the connector on the Mass Storage Backplane. See Figure 5-4. Figure 5-4 Folded SCSI Connector Step 11. Plug the new cable into the mass storage connector for the top left drive. Step 12. Pull any excess cable into the PCI card cage of the server. Step 13. Install the HP Smart Array Controller Card into slot 8 of IO chassis 1 of the server. Step 14. Install the LAN SCSI Core IO card into slot 7 of IO chassis 1 of the server. Step 15. Connect the flat SCSI cable to port A1 of the HP Smart Array Controller Card. (closest to the front of the server). Step 16. Connect the round SCSI cable to port A2 of the HP Smart Array Controller Card. (closest to the rear of the server). Step 17. Re-connect any other cables disconnected during installation. 48 Chapter 5

Step 11.
Plug the new cable into the mass storage connector for the top left drive.
Step 12.
Pull any excess cable into the PCI card cage of the server.
Step 13.
Install the HP Smart Array Controller Card into slot 8 of IO chassis 1 of the server.
Step 14.
Install the LAN SCSI Core IO card into slot 7 of IO chassis 1 of the server.
Step 15.
Connect the flat SCSI cable to port A1 of the HP Smart Array Controller Card. (closest to the front
of the server).
Step 16.
Connect the round SCSI cable to port A2 of the HP Smart Array Controller Card. (closest to the
rear of the server).
Step 17.
Re-connect any other cables disconnected during installation.
