numberandside(AorB).Pre‐madelabelsareprovidedforSC200/220enclosures.Labels
arenotprovidedforEN‐SASx6x12/24enclosures,solabelsmustbecreatedmanuallyfor
cablesthatconnecttothoseenclosures.
Prerequisites
IftheStorageCenterhasEN‐SASx 6x12/24enclosures,youmusthavealabelmaker,orfour
blanklabelsandawritingutensil.
Steps
1 Locate orcreatelabelsfortheback‐endcables.

number,andside(AorB).
Example:Backend1A
 SC200/220enclosures:Locatetheback‐endcablelabelsthatshippedwiththe
enclosures.Thepre‐madelabelsincludethepurpose(Backend),chainnumber,and
