   no devices are available to the system. 2. Verify that the internal SCSI cables to the backplane
      are correctly connected.
  3. Send the command from the system to spin-up the drives
      Refer to the system publications for more information
      for more information. Remove the following FRUs, then
      run the system diagnostics after each FRU is replaced.
   
        a. System SCSI Cable
      b. Internal SCSI Cable
      c. Backplane
   
    4. If there is still a problem after all the FRUs have been
      replaced, one of the hot-swap hard disk drives may be
      defective.
   
        a. Unseat all of the hot-swap hard disk drives
      except the one in hot-swap bay 0.
      b. Disconnect the internal SCSI cable, if installed,
      from the manual-plug devices. (tape)
      c. Send the command from the system to spin-up the
      drives. Refer to the systems publications for
      more information.
   
    5. If the command is successful, reseat the next hot-swap
      hard disk drive and send the command from the system
      to spin-up the drive.
  6. Repeat step 5, until the failure symptom returns. Then
      remove and replace the FRUs in the following order, and
      run the system diagnostics after each FRU is replaced.
   
        a. Hot-swap hard disk drive carrier.
      a. Hot-swap hard disk drive.
   One hot-swap hard disk drive is not 1. Verify that the hot-swap hard disk drive carrier
   available to the system     cables are correctly connected
  2. If the green light on the hot-swap hard disk drive is
      flashing, press the power switch on the drive.
  3. Send the command from the system to spin-up the drive.
      Refer to the systems publications for more information.
  4. If the hot-swap hard disk drive is still not available to
      the system, remove and replace the FRUs in the following
      order, and run the system diagnostics after each FRU is
