d. For the I/O module that you connected, check that the overall operational state and the connection and operational states for each port displays Good. The other I/O module that is not yet connected will display Not installed for the overall operational state and Not available for each port operational state. NOTE: If the newly added disk enclosure is at a different I/O module firmware version, the overall operational state will display Loading firmware. The state will remain as Loading firmware until the other I/O module is connected. At that point, the I/O module firmware will be upgraded. e. Once you connect the other I/O module, repeat Step 5.b through Step 5.d to verify that I/O module's status. 6. Complete the connections to I/O module A: a. Unplug the cable between DP-A on controller 1 and I/O module A port P1 on the nearest disk enclosure below the controller enclosure. Connect the cable from DP-A on controller 1 to I/O module A port P1 on the newly installed disk enclosure (3, Figure 11). b. Using a long cable, plug one end into port P1 of I/O module A on the existing disk enclosure below and closest to the controller enclosure and I/O module A port P2 on the newly installed disk enclosure (4, Figure 11). 7. Repeat step 5 to verify the I/O module A connections. 8. Verify that I/O modules A and B on the added enclosure have been assigned a unique (but not necessarily sequential) index number. 12 Cabling the enclosure

d.
For the I/O module that you connected, check that the overall operational state and the
connection and operational states for each port displays
Good
. The other I/O module that
is not yet connected will display
Not installed
for the overall operational state and
Not
available
for each port operational state.
NOTE:
If the newly added disk enclosure is at a different I/O module firmware version,
the overall operational state will display
Loading firmware
. The state will remain as
Loading
firmware
until the other I/O module is connected. At that point, the I/O module firmware
will be upgraded.
e.
Once you connect the other I/O module, repeat
Step 5.b
through
Step 5.d
to verify that I/O
module's status.
6.
Complete the connections to I/O module A:
a.
Unplug the cable between DP-A on controller 1 and I/O module A port P1 on the nearest
disk enclosure below the controller enclosure. Connect the cable from DP-A on controller 1
to I/O module A port P1 on the newly installed disk enclosure (3,
Figure 11
).
b.
Using a long cable, plug one end into port P1 of I/O module A on the existing disk enclosure
below and closest to the controller enclosure and I/O module A port P2 on the newly installed
disk enclosure (4,
Figure 11
).
7.
Repeat step 5 to verify the I/O module A connections.
8.
Verify that I/O modules A and B on the added enclosure have been assigned a unique (but not
necessarily sequential) index number.
