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.
3.1
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.

Safety Precautions
3.2.1
Precautions and Instructions
•
Be sure the correct power range (100-120 or 220-240VAC) is supplied by your rack cabi-
net, UPS device, or power outlet.
•
Thermal notice: All drive trays (even if they do not contain a hard drive) must be installed
into the enclosure. Leaving a drive bay or module slot open will severely affect the airflow
efficiency within the enclosure, and will consequently lead to system overheating. Keep a
faulty module in place until you have a replacement unit and you are ready to replace it.
•
An enclosure without disk drives can weigh over 25 kilograms. Two (2) people are
required to install or relocate the subsystem. To avoid damage to disk drives, drives
should be removed from the enclosure before moving the subsystem.
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.
