STARTING THE VTL APPLIANCE

5.Route Fibre Channel Storage Area Network (SAN) cables to the host bus adapters (W above), but do not connect them at this time.

Wait to connect Fibre Channel cables until after the Fibre Channel interfaces have been zoned to hosts.

6.Inspect the attached cables for binding or kinks, and make sure that the CMA extends easily and does not bind in the slide-rails. Adjust the cable hangers and CMA as required.

7.To maximize airflow, tie-wrap power cords at the bottom of the CMA troughs and LAN and SAN cables at the top.

Starting the VTL appliance

Powering up a VTL appliance is a two-step process. First, you apply standby power to bring up the Integrated Lights Out Manger (ILOM) service processor. Then you apply main power to start the VTL server and boot the Solaris operating system.

Caution – The VTL Value appliance requires 200 to 240 VAC.

Powering up

Caution – Do not operate the server for longer than 60m seconds unless all fans, component heat sinks, air baffles, and covers are installed. Severe damage to server components can occur if the server is operated without adequate cooling mechanisms.
