Hard Drive Question
Good day,

I have an rs/6000 server, model 7044-270. I bought a 2nd hard drive for it but im not sure its the right one. (fru:H13060) As you surely know, the 7044-270 hard drives are put in some sort of tray/carrier. There is a cable that will interface the HDD with the tray/carrier so the carrier can connect inside the PC.

My peoblem is.. The cable i have does not fit on my HDD (FRU:H113060). I

The cable i have got 1 large scsi connecor (to connect in the server) on 1 end and a 3 way connector on the other end. (SCSI, POWER and another connection). What i need is a 1 to 1 SCSI extention. not a 1 to 3.

I have a single large connector on my HDD and 1 single large connector inside the server. The cable is have a 1 large connector (attached to the tray) and a 3 way connector on the otherside.

So whats wrong here?

Did i bought the wrong hard drive? did the guys ship methe wrong Case carrier?


Any help woulf be much apreciated.

P.S: Sorry for any typos/sentence structure, english is not my 1st language.

Merci.

NAME

       emlxs - Emulex-Sun LightPulse Fibre Channel host bus adapter driver

SYNOPSIS

       SUNW,emlxs

       The emlxs host bus adapter driver is a Sun Fibre  Channel transport layer-compliant nexus driver for the Emulex Light-Pulse family of Fibre
       Channel adapters. These adapters support Fibre Channel SCSI and IP Protocols, FC-AL public loop profile, point-to-point	fabric	connection
       and Fibre Channel service classes two and three.

       The emlxs driver interfaces with the Sun Fibre Channel transport layer to support the standard functions provided by the SCSA interface. It
       supports auto request sense and tagged queueing by default. The driver requires that all devices have  unique  hard  addresses  in  private
       loop configurations. Devices with conflicting hard addresses are not accessible.
