Setting The Enclosure Address (Ea) - Dell DAE2-ATA Hardware Reference Manual

CAUTION
!
Each drive reads its FC-AL physical address only at powerup or
when the drive is reset. To avoid losing data, you must set the
enclosure address when power is off; you cannot change the EA
while power is on.
1. Set the enclosure address to the desired value, as shown in
Figure 2-1.

2. If the power/cooling module on the DAE2 includes a power
switch, turn it to the off position before you plug an ac line cord
from the cabinet's power distribution unit into each
power/cooling module, as shown in Figure 2-2.
Make certain you secure the power cord with the strain reliefs at each
connector. The strain reliefs prevent the power cord from pulling out of
the connections.
