Installing options in the control enclosure

If you purchased host interface adapters for your control enclosure and those options were not preinstalled for you, you must open each node canister and install the options.

Note: You must install the same options in all node canisters.

First, open the canister as described in Opening the node canister, then refer to the procedure for the option you are installing.

Finally, close the canister and install it in the control enclosure (see Closing the node canister).

Note: Disk drives can also be installed in the control enclosure, but that procedure does not involve opening any node canisters. See Installing disk drives for details.
