Setting SCSI IDs for External Devices

Setting SCSI IDs for External Devices

Each SCSI device that is connected to a SCSI controller must have a unique SCSI ID, so that the SCSI controller can identify the devices and ensure that different devices do not attempt to transfer data at the same time. SCSI devices that are connected to different SCSI controllers can have duplicate SCSI IDs. See 'SCSI IDs' and to the instructions that come with the SCSI devices for more information about setting a SCSI ID.

Installation Procedure: To attach an external device:

1.  Turn off the server and all attached devices.
2.  Follow the instructions that come with the option to  prepare it for installation and to connect it to the  server.
