Netfinity 5000 - Changing Jumper Positions

Applicable to: World-Wide

Changing Jumper Positions

The DASD backplane, which is the Netfinity 5000 SCSI backplane, contains two-pin jumper blocks, which are behind the daughterboard (SAF-TE) on the DASD backplane. Jumper block J4 controls the addressing of the SCSI hard disk drive hot-swap bays. See SCSI Jumpers for details.

Two-Pin Jumper Blocks: Covering both pins with a jumper specifies one function of the jumper block. Covering one pin only or removing the jumper entirely changes the function of the jumper block. To change a jumper's position for a two-pin jumper block:

1. Turn off the server; then disconnect the server power cord.

2. Remove the server cover (see Option Installation).

3. Locate the jumper block, removing any adapters or components that may hinder access to the jumper block.

4. Do one of the following:
Remove a jumper by performing either action:
- Lift the jumper straight off the pin block.
- Align one of the holes in the bottom of the jumper with one of the pins on the pin block, and then slide the jumper onto that pin only.



Place a jumper by aligning the holes in the bottom of the jumper with the two pins on the pin block, and then sliding the jumper onto these pins.

5. Replace any components or adapters that you might have removed.

6. Reinstall the server cover and connect the cables (see Completing the Installation for instructions).
