Using the CR8e

SAFTE CHAIN ID

This option allows the administrator to establish the intercabinet SAF-TE

communication to support a master and slave cabinets. The master cabinet can

report component failure for both the master cabinet and up to two slave cabinets

to the AdminiStor Storage Management software. Each cabinet’s individual OCP

will function normally for that cabinet’s components.

Once the slave cabinets have been established, the administrator must use the slave

cabinet’s OCP to manually take that slave cabinet SAF-TE card off bus, refer to

“SCSI ID Menu” on page 46.

1 Choose the SAFTE CHAIN ID selection and press the Enter button.

2 Use the up/down arrow buttons and choose between the options: None,

Master, Slave 1, and Slave 2, then press the Enter button.

NOTE:

Choose “NONE” when the cabinet is used in a stand-alone conﬁguration

or the master/slave option is not desired.

3 You will be prompted to cycle the power on the CR8e for the changes to take

effect.
