Establishing a Serial Connection, Single Controller

The simplest connection to a storage subsystem is a direct, cable connection
from the Client’s host system to one of the storage subsystem's serial ports. To
establish a serial connection, connect a serial cable from one of the computer’s
COM ports to the storage subsystem's CTR TOP (controller in top slot) or
CTR BOTTOM (controller in second slot) configuration port and proceed as
follows:

1.

Open the HSZ22 storage window (Start|Programs|Command
Console|HSZ22 Storage Window). The connection choice dialog box
appears.

2.

Select the Serial option, and then click OK. The HSZ22 Management:
Serial Connection dialog box (Figure 2–3) appears.

3.

From the drop-down menu, select the COM port that connects to your
RA3000 controller, and then click the Connect button. When the
storage window appears, you are connected to your storage subsystem.
