Jumpers and Connectors

Step 4

Install the MegaRAID SAS 84016E RAID
Controller

Insert the SAS 84016E in a PCI-E slot on the
mainboard, as shown in

Figure 2

. Press down

gently but firmly to seat the card properly in the
slot. Secure the SAS 84016E to the computer
chassis with the bracket screw.

Note:

Refer to your mainboard guide for information
about the PCI-E slot.

Note:

This is a PCI Express x8 card, so it fits only in a
PCI Express slot that is x8 or larger.

Jumper/
Connector Type

Description

J1

IPMI-style I

2

C

connector

3-pin connector.

Provides support for enclosure
management using the SAF-TE
(SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant
Enclosure) protocol.

J2

Individual Activity
LED header for 8
ports (8-15)

16-pin (8x2) header.

Provides LED interface individually
to 8 SAS ports (0-7). The LED
indicates activity on particular
ports.

J3

LED Drive
Fault Connector
Interface

16-pin (8x2) connector.

Provides LED interface individually
to eight SAS ports (8-15). The
LED indicates a drive fault on par-
ticular ports.

J4

x8 SAS Ports 12-15 The x4 SAS connectors connect

the cables from the adapter to
SAS or SATA II physical drives, or
to a SAS expander.

J5

x8 SAS Ports 8-11

The x4 SAS connectors connect
the cables from the adapter to
SAS or SATA II physical drives, or
to a SAS expander

J6

Cache Write
Pending LED

2-pin header.

Connector for enclosure LED.
Provides a signal that indicates
when the on-board cache contains
data and a write from the cache to
the hard drives is pending.
Optional.

J9

x8 SAS Ports 4-7

The x4 SAS connectors connect
the cables from the adapter to
SAS or SATA II physical drives, or
to a SAS expander

J11

Mode Select

2-pin connector.

If the firmware flashed onto the
board is corrupted, you need to
jumper J5 (this holds the CPU core
in reset), so you can flash the firm-
ware. Remove the jumper after
you flash the new firmware.

No jumper: This is the setting dur-
ing normal operation (Mode 3).
This is the default.

Jumper: This holds the CPU core
in reset (Mode 0).

Note: The card does not function
as a RAID controller if this jumper
is mounted.

J12

UART

4-pin connector.

Used for diagnostic purposes. You
need a LSI RS232 adapter to inter-
face with a PC.

J13

x8 SAS Ports 0-3

The x4 SAS connectors connect
the cables from the adapter to
SAS or SATA II physical drives, or
to a SAS expander

J14

Individual Fault
LED header for 8
ports (0-7)

16-pin (8x2) header.

Provides LED interface individually
to 8 SAS ports. The LED indicates
errors on particular ports.

J15

Individual Activity
LED header for 8
ports (0-7)

16-pin (8x2) header.

Provides LED interface individually
to 8 SAS ports. The LED indicates
activity on particular ports.

J16

Battery Backup
Connector (located
on the back side of
the RAID controller)

20-pin connector.

Provides interface to the remote
LSIiBBU01 battery pack.

J17
