Replacing the SAN Volume Controller 2145-8G4 cable retention bracket

The cable-retention bracket attaches to the back of the SAN Volume Controller 2145-8G4 node. It is connected with the screws that already hold the rear plate of the power supply in place.

1. With the node powered off and the power cable removed, loosen and remove the two screws  on the right side of the rear plate that covers the power supply fan unit, as shown in Figure 3.

3. Insert the power cable.
4. Position the cable-retention bracket so that the power cable runs through the slot in the bracket. Align the screw holes in the bracket with the holes that are in the rear plate where you removed the two screws.
5. Replace the top screw.
6. Move the power supply handle back into place over the retention bracket, and replace the lower screw so that it holds the power supply handle, cable-retention bracket, and power supply rear plate in place.

1. Install the power cable into the power supply.
2. At the back of the cabinet, remove the securing bolt from the node side rail next to the power supply, as shown in Figure 4.
