E.1

Setting Up the Serial Port Connection

The RAID controller can be configured by means of a Solaris workstation running a 
VT100 terminal emulation program, or by a Microsoft Windows terminal emulation 
program such as HyperTerminal. 

You can also monitor and configure a RAID array over an IP network with the 

SANscape program once you have assigned an IP address to the array. For details, see 
“Configuring a Host COM Port to Connect to a RAID Array” on page 4-26 and refer 
to the SANscape User’s Guide. 

1. Use a null modem serial cable to connect the COM port of the RAID array to an 

unused serial port on a Solaris workstation. 
A DB9-to-DB25 serial cable adapter is included in your package contents for 
connecting the serial cable to a DB25 serial port on a workstation.
