Labeling the cables

You must label each end of the two redundant AC-power switch input-power cables before you connect the input-power cables to the redundant AC-power switch.

Procedure

To label each end of the two redundant AC-power switch input-power cables, complete the following steps.

  1. Label the rack power-distribution end “Power source <name>, outlet <id> to redundant AC-power switch <location> <MAIN | BACKUP> input.” For example, “Power source D2, outlet 4 to redundant AC-power switch pos 7 MAIN input.” One cable is labeled "MAIN;" the other is labeled "BACKUP."
  2. Label the redundant AC-power switch end "redundant AC-power switch <location> <MAIN | BACKUP> input from Power source <name>, outlet <id>." One cable is labeled "MAIN;" the other is labeled "BACKUP."
