D. Connecting the Serial Cable

NOTE: If you need to change the array host port behavior or the array loop IDs, follow the steps in this

section. Otherwise, go to Section E.

Changing the array host port behavior: If your array is connected to a host that is running Windows

2000, Windows NT, or Linux, you need to change the array host port behavior using the Virtual Front Panel

(VFP).

Changing the array loop IDs: Your array comes preset with the following default fibre channel loop

identifiers (IDs): 108 (controller 1) and 110 (controller 2). If the default loop IDs conflict with the loop IDs of

any other devices in your configuration, you need to change the array loop IDs using the Virtual Front

Panel (VFP).

1. Connect one end of the null-modem

serial cable to the controller 1

RS-232 port or the controller 2

RS-232 port on the array rear panel

(see Fig. 41).

NOTE: The RS-232 port on either

array controller can communicate

with either array controller 1 or array

controller 2.

2. Connect the other end of the serial

cable to the RS-232 port on a laptop

PC, desktop PC, or any RS-232

terminal.
