Hello
I have tried to add a new cage to my 3PAR and realized that I had the cabling messed up.
I was getting the following errors
Cabling Mismatched cage order
Cabling Cable chains are unbalanced
and
Cage cage:20 Missing both A and B loops
Cage cage:21 Missing both A and B loops

showcage shows (with the messed up cables connected)
20 cage20 1:0:2 5 0:0:2 5 24 31-34 4078 4078 DCS2 SFF
21 cage21 3:0:2 5 2:0:2 5 24 31-36 4078 4078 DCS2 SFF

Then we disconnected the (messed up) cables and the showcage shows
20 cage20 --- 5 --- 5 0 0-0 - - DCS2 SFF
21 cage21 --- 5 --- 5 0 0-0 - - DCS2 SFF

Should I remove these entries before attempting to (re)cable / connect the new cage once more?
If yes I was looking at the following
servicecage remove cage20
servicecage remove cage21

I wanted to verify my thinking with you helpful people before I continue
Thanks

Don’t bother to remove…. If you had PDs installed you would have to dismiss everything. The cage should re-identify itself correctly.
