AO Nodes:0&1 NL PDs need to be attached to this Node pair
ao suggestion action
Use the following CLI commands to view PD distribution: showpd, showpd -p -devtype NL, showpd
-p -devtype NL -nodes 0,1, and showcage. In the following example, there are 72 NL PDs
attached to nodes 2&3, but none attached to nodes 0&1. Contact the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Support
Center to request support for moving NL PDs (and possibly cages) from nodes 2&3 to nodes 0&1 for your
system.

cabling
Displays issues with cabling of drive enclosures (cages).
• Cages cabled correctly to controller nodes
• Cages cabled correctly to drive enclosure I/O modules and ports
• Cages with broken cables
• Cable daisy chain lengths balanced and supported length
• Cable daisy chain order
• Cages with no PDs with primary path to controller nodes
NOTE: To avoid any cabling errors, all drive enclosures must have at least one or more hard drives
installed before powering on the enclosure.
