Cabling the Enclosure
Ä
CAUTION:
Do not connect external devices to the enclosure link (RJ-45)
connectors unless the device is listed as a supported device on the
Quickspecs. Connecting an unsupported external device to the enclosure
link (RJ-45) connectors may damage your external device.
To cable a ProLiant BL e-Class blade enclosure already installed in a
rack:
1. For accessing and configuring the Integrated Administrator
locally, connect a client device (running VT-100 terminal
emulation software) to the Integrated Administrator console
connector using a null-modem cable (provided with your
enclosure). For accessing and configuring the Integrated
Administrator over your network, connect the Integrated
Administrator to your management network via the management
connector.
2. Connect the Blade PC network connectors to your network
For the interconnect switch, be sure that at least one of the
uplink connectors is cabled. Any Blade PC NIC can be routed
to any of the uplink connectors. However, because only
NIC 1 is PXE-enabled by default on each Blade PC, it is
recommended that either port 25 or 26 of switch A be used
for PXE functions.
For the RJ-45 patch panel, be sure that cables are connected
for each Blade PC you intend to install in the enclosure. Only
the NIC 1 RJ-45 connector for each blade PC provides
PXE-enabled connectivity by default.
3. Connect an AC power cord to each hot-plug power supply.
Ä
CAUTION:
The enclosure will power up as soon as an AC power cord is
connected to a power source and a power supply.
