Part 2: 201i Server Hardware Installation 49
Installing the 201i server in the large
Meridian 1 switch
Introduction
The 201i server occupies two slots. You can install the 201i server in slots
0 through 14. Ensure that both slots have electrical backplane connectivity.
To position the 201i server on the switch shelf
1 Ensure that no cables are connected to the slots in which you are
installing the 201i server.
2 Open the lock latches at the top and bottom of the 201i server faceplate.
Note: When you open the top lock latch, you break the yellow backplane
warning label, if it has not been removed. You must move the secondary
backplane connector before you install the 201i server. For details, see
Repositioning the secondary backplane connector on page 44.
3 Slide the 201i server into an unoccupied pair of slots.
Ensure that the 201i server is positioned correctly between the slots.
4 Connect the low-profile right-angle SCSI cable connector to the SCSI
connector on the 201i servers faceplate.
ATTENTION
Do not push the 201i server into place against the
backplane until you are ready to observe the startup
cycle.
The 201i server receives power and starts as soon as
the 201i server makes contact with the switch
backplane.
