8.Insert the controller into the chassis:

a.Slide the controller into the empty controller bay in the storage subsystem. Make sure that the handle is pulled straight out as you slide the controller into the bay.

b.Make sure that the guide pins on the side of the controller fit into the notches on the DS3200 chassis. See Figure 42 on page 70.

c.After the guide pins fit into the notches and the controller fits snugly into the bay, push the handle downward to fully latch it into place.

9.Reconnect the cables that you disconnected in step 3 on page 69.

10.Turn on the DS3200 (see “Turning on the storage subsystem” on page 46).

11.Wait up to 5 minutes for the DS3000 Storage Manager software to recognize the controller.

12.Check the LEDs on the controller to make sure that the controller is fully operational.

13.Use the DS3000 Storage Manager Subsystem Management window to check the status of all components in the storage subsystem.

v If the controller is online and the DS3000 Storage Manager Subsystem Management window indicates normal operation, go to step 16 on page 72.

v If the controller is online and the DS3000 Storage Manager Subsystem Management window indicates a problem status, go to “Troubleshooting the storage subsystem” on page 51.

v If the controller is offline, continue with step 14.

14.If the newly inserted controller is in an offline state, see the DS3000 Storage Manager online help for instructions on bringing the controller online. If necessary, open the DS3000 Storage Manager Subsystem Management window and place the controller online; select the offline controller and click Advanced Recovery Place controller online.
