HP DL580 GEN9 Second Backplane

[AmirITSetifis]

Hello 

We have an HP SERVER DL580 GEN9 And we needed to install more disks so we purchased a secondary backplane after the installation the new one worked perfectly but the old one stopped completely and wouldn't detect our disks and even the lights were not on like it s not connected to the SPI BOARD, what should I do ???

Hi,

Make sure the cabling is correct.

Dear  AmirITSetifis

At first Please let us know which RAID controller you are using in your system. also inform after installing new drives. what is your cable connection layout.

Hello @rabindra11sharm  @Suman_1978 !

I am in the same situation, the customer having two 580s Gen9  to upgrade with the secondary (top) backplanes.

I checked the part surfer and the part number seems to be 735520-001, but it came with no cables.

Could you tell if I need the power supply backplane assembly 735526-001 for each server?

The cables ate in the cable package 735515-001 or can be orderd separately ? The service manual specifies the data cable and power cable but with no part numbers for them.

Thank you very much

Costin

Hi @RCostin 

I found this info, see if it is helpful: 

735520-001: 8-SFF SAS/SATA backplane

735526-001: Power supply backplane assembly (one per server, required if not already installed).

735515-001: Cable kit (contains both power and data cables for backplanes).

You can order these parts directly through HPE or authorized resellers. Alternatively, check with a spare parts supplier if you need only specific cables.

I've ordered the components and I'm looking forward for them to arrive !

All the best !
