For all PowerVault 130T tape libraries, see Chapter 8, “Installing and Config- uring the PowerVault 130T Tape Library/120T Autoloader.”
For all PowerVault 35F Fibre Channel bridges, see Chapter 7, “Installing and Configuring the PowerVault 35F Fibre Channel Multiport Bridge.”
2.For all servers, perform the following functions:
a.Unpack and install all hardware (including mounting in the rack), and connect AC power and LAN cables, but do not connect any SAN cables. For instruc- tions, see the server documentation.
b.Install the Dell OpenManage Storage Consolidation software on the Win- dows NT storage consolidation servers. For instructions, see Chapter 10, “Installing and Configuring Windows NT SAN Software Components.“ (Do not load Storage C on Windows NT cluster servers or NetWare servers.)
c.Install the operating system. For instructions, see the operating system documentation.
d.Install all Fibre Channel HBAs. For instructions, see Chapter 4, “Installing the Host Bus Adapter in the Server.”
e.Install QLogic drivers and BIOS, and set the execution throttle and LUNs per target. For instructions, see Chapter 4, “Installing the Host Bus Adapter in the Server.”
f.Install ATF on Windows NT servers. For instructions, see Chapter 10, “Installing and Configuring Windows NT SAN Software Components.“
g.Reboot all servers.
3.Connect all SAN cables.
NOTE: Cable each zone separately. There will be one zone for Windows NT , one for NetWare, and one for each cluster.
a.Connect SAN
b.For Windows NT clusters, connect SAN cables for each cluster pair and that pairs storage devices one cluster at a time.
1.Cable the cluster pair servers to the switches.
2.Cable the 650F/651Fs associated with the cluster to the switches.
3.Create a zone for the cluster’s two servers and its storage and save the zone, add the zone to the configuration, save the configuration file, enable the configuration, and save the configuration file again. For instructions, see the Dell PowerVault Switch Manager User’s Guide or the zoning documentation that came with your system.
4.Reboot the cluster pair.
