Cisco Systems 100/200/300/400 specifications Preparing the CDEs for Rack Installation, CDE100

Chapter 3 Installing the Content Delivery Engines

Installing the CDEs

•Do not block any air vents; usually 6 inches (15 cm) of space provides proper airflow.

•Plan the device installation starting from the bottom of the rack.

•Install the heaviest device in the bottom of the rack.

•Do not extend more than one device out of the rack at the same time.

•Remove the rack doors and side panels to provide easier access during installation.

•Connect the device to a properly grounded outlet.

•Do not overload the power outlet when installing multiple devices in the rack.

•Do not place any object weighing more than 110 lb (50 kg) on top of rack-mounted devices.

Preparing the CDEs for Rack Installation

Verify correct hardware configuration by performing the following steps:

Step 1 Remove the top cover on the chassis by removing the screws and lifting the cover from the chassis. Step 2 Configure the applicable chassis as follows:

CDE100

a.Set all dip switches at the back of the disk array case to the OFF (down) position.

b.Make sure the CD-ROM drive is connected to the primary IDE cable, and the compact flash drive is connected to the secondary IDE cable. There are two IDE connectors on the motherboard. The one parallel to the front panel of the chassis is the primary IDE connector. The one in the upright position is the secondary IDE connector. If necessary, swap the internal CD-ROM drive with the compact flash drive to ensure that the compact flash drive is connected to the secondary IDE cable.

CDE200

a.Make sure the 80-GB hard drive is connected to the primary IDE cable, and the compact flash drive is connected to the secondary IDE cable. If necessary, swap the internal CD-ROM drive with the compact flash drive to ensure that the compact flash drive is connected to the secondary IDE cable.

b.Disable the onboard SCSI controller by connect pins 2 and 3 (instead of 1 and 2) for the jumper labeled “JPA-1” (located about two inches below the center PCI-X slot—slot 3 of 5). Pin 1 is closest to the rear of the case and pin 3 is closest to the front.

CDE300

a.Make sure the 80-GB hard drive is connected to the primary IDE cable.

b.Disable the onboard SCSI controller by connect pins 2 and 3 (instead of 1 and 2) for the jumper labeled “JPA-1” (located about two inches below the center PCI-X slot—slot 3 of 5). Pin 1 is closest to the rear of the case and pin 3 is closest to the front.

CDE400

a.Make sure the 160-GB hard drive is connected to primary IDE cable.

Step 3 Replace the top cover on the chassis.
