Chapter 3 Mount the Drive in the NetServer E 45 NOTE HP SCSI-3 drives must connect to the actively terminated cable. Using an incorrect cable (or not using an active termination module) will cause data transmission errors. Do not use passively terminated cables with Ultra SCSI-3 hard disk drives. CAUTION The active termination module belongs on the last connector on the cable. Do not remove this terminator. • Connect the internal power supply cable to the hard disk drive with one of the unused cables from the power supply unit. • Select an available connector on the SCSI cable and connect it to the disk drive. CAUTION The connector is keyed. Do not force the connector in the slot. (The red stripe on the edge of the cable denotes the position of Pin 1 on the cable.) • Record information about the new hard disk setup, including: model number, capacity, and SCSI. • Reassemble the HP NetServer. • Connect all the cables and power cords. • Turn on power to the HP NetServer. Step 4: Configure the Drive Configure the SCSI controller for the drive using the SCSI SelectTM utility. • If the SCSI controller is not yet configured, run the SCSI Select utility, included with your system. • Consult your operating system documentation for information on how best to format the disk drive for this HP NetServer. Typically, you create one or more partitions on your new hard drive, using the guidelines in Appendix B, "Disk Drive Characteristics." 27

NOTE
HP SCSI-3 drives must connect to the actively terminated
cable. Using an incorrect cable (or not using an active
termination module) will cause data transmission errors.
Do not
use passively terminated cables with Ultra SCSI-3 hard disk
drives.
CAUTION
The active termination module belongs on the last connector
on the cable.
Do not remove this terminator
.
Connect the internal power supply cable to the hard disk drive with one of
the unused cables from the power supply unit.
Select an available connector on the SCSI cable and connect it to the disk
drive.
CAUTION
The connector is keyed. Do not force the connector in the slot.
(The red stripe on the edge of the cable denotes the position of
Pin 1 on the cable.)
Record information about the new hard disk setup, including: model
number, capacity, and SCSI.
Reassemble the HP NetServer.
Connect all the cables and power cords.
Turn on power to the HP NetServer.
Step 4: Configure the Drive
Configure the SCSI controller for the drive using the SCSI Select
TM
utility.
If the SCSI controller is not yet configured, run the SCSI Select utility,
included with your system.
Consult your operating system documentation for information on how best
to format the disk drive for this HP NetServer. Typically, you create one or
more partitions on your new hard drive, using the guidelines in Appendix
B, "Disk Drive Characteristics.
