Validating cables in the 9080-M9S system
You can use the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI) to validate cables in the system and to identity issues such as unplugged cables, incorrect connection, and incorrect cable length.
About this task
Cable validation occurs automatically during system power on. To validate cables manually:
- If the system is at the FSP standby state, go to Validating FSP, UPIC, and SMP cables in the 9080-M9S system at the FSP standby state.
- If the system firmware level is FW940.00, or later, and if the system power is turned on, go to Validating UPIC cables in the 9080-M9S system with the system power turned on.
To display cable status, go to Displaying the status of FSP, UPIC, and SMP cables in the 9080-M9S system.
Notes:
- The FSP and SMP cables cannot be manually verified with the system power turned on. The cable status that is displayed is the result of the last cable validation that occurred. Cable validation occurs automatically during system power on.
- If the system firmware level is earlier than FW940.00, the UPIC cables cannot be manually verified when the system power is turned on. The cable status that is displayed is the result of the last cable validation that occurred. Cable validation occurs automatically during system power on.
