RS-232 Ports
Located below the I/O card slots are the SAF-TE service and
VT-100 RAID controller RS-232 serial ports. See
Figure 5-20
for the
location of these ports on the rear panel.
Figure 5-20
RS-232 Service and Controller Ports
The SAF-TE service port provides an RS-232 serial interface to the
SAF-TE disk I/O card allowing firmware uploads, and
maintenance/service monitoring of the SEPs. This port is labeled
SAF-TE.
The two RAID controller ports, which are labeled CTRL 1 and
CTRL 2, provide an RS-232 serial interface to each RAID controller.
These connectors provide access to the Disk Array Administration
software onboard the controllers and allow for firmware updates.
The ports are standard DB9 connectors that provide a connection
via a null-modem serial cable for VT-100 terminal and host serial
portion communication via emulation software.
