There seems to be a problem in the manufacture process of the AS600.
If you look at the chassis where the SCSI cable passes from the IO area
tothe drive area, there is a Burr that can (and has) cut the SCSI
cable. I've looked at several AS600's and they all have the same
prolbem. Be Aware.
It would be nice if manufacturing could address this issue(file off the
burr) early in the product life cycle.
IMHO
Thanks

I installed 15 AlphaStation 600 systems last week. The newer systems
had a semi transparent yellow tape wrapped where the cable passed
through to the I/O cavity. Perhaps someone in engineering, or
manufacturing saw this as a problem.
There used to be a process to resolve these types of issues called Tech
Tips. A Tech Tip was a tool the field used to identify problems, and
get ECOs, or FCOs generated.

This system actually had this tape on it. It didn't help.
I got in a new cable...it had no tape. So we put some tape over the
burr. I hope that will do it.
