Hardware Installation

 

This chapter gives detailed instructions on how to install the subsystem. When installing the

 

subsystem, it is necessary to mount the chassis into a rack or cabinet and to install hard

 

drives and drive trays. Installation into a rack or cabinet should occur before the hard drives or

 

drive trays are installed into the subsystem. Please confirm that you received all of the compo-

 

nents listed on the Unpacking List that came with the subsystem before proceeding with the

 

installation process.

 

 

 

CAUTION!

 

Please note that the installation instructions described in this chapter should be carefully fol-

 

lowed to prevent any difficulties and damages to your system.

Installation Prerequisites

Static free installation environment: The subsystems must be installed in a static-free environment to minimize the possibility of electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage. (See Section 1 Warnings and Certifications).

Component check: Before installing the subsystems, you should first check to see that you have received all the required components. If any items appear damaged, contact your vendor for a replacement.

Hard drives: Hard drives must be purchased separately prior to the subsystem installa- tion.

Cabling:

The subsystems requires an external VHDCI-to-VHDCI SCSI round cable to connect the subsystem to a host computer.

One (1) audio-jack-to-DB9 cable is provided to facilitate the connection of the COM1 port for local terminal emulation access to the array.

Two (2) power cords are provided for the power connections to the power sources.

The RJ-45 Ethernet cable for network management connection is a user-supplied item.

Memory module: If you wish to change the pre-installed memory module, a separately purchased module must be installed. Please contact your vendor for a different memory module or consult the list of compatible modules.

Rack installation: The enclosure chassis can be installed into a rack cabinet using self- purchased mounting rails. A printed copy of installation guide is provided with the slide rails package.
