In line number 10, Port B is shown as ″Connected_to″ RXE100 Side B, Port B. In line number 15, Port 1 is the internal port connecting to Side A, and it is ″Ready″. Testing the scalability and RXE cabling There are 12 ports on each xSeries 445 chassis that can be tested: 1. The six scalability ports 2. The two RIOG ports (Port A and Port B) 3. The four ports on the Remote Expansion Enclosure: a. The two internal ports (Port A and Port B) b. The two internal ports (between Side A and Side B) Depending on the BIOS determination of what is present on the system, some of the ports will not be selectable (greyed out), shown with a Note: When starting the diagnostic programs, make sure that Esc is pressed on the primary server first (see step 2 on page 70 of "Starting the diagnostic programs" on page 70). The merge must be bypassed on the primary server first. If Esc is pressed on the secondary server first, some ports will be disabled, greying out the test for those ports. v If SMP2 is not present, all 4 entries under SMP2 will be greyed out. v If RXE100 is not present, all 4 RXE100 entries will be greyed out; or, if either side is not present, that side will be greyed out. (The SideB shown below is not present.) v If the port being tested blocks access to the chip controlling that port, that entry will be greyed out. An example is shown below, ″RXE100, SideA Port″. Testing that port will drive traffic on the cable between SideA and the xSeries 445 so that the Summit chip on the RXE100 cannot be accessed to stop the test. 74 xSeries 445 Type 8870: Hardware Maintenance Manual and Troubleshooting Guide
