PARTS CHECKLIST FOR BASIC CONFIGURATION Before you start, be sure you have the materials listed below. Most required parts were provided with your system, but some are shipped with particular components (and configurations) and others are shipped separately. ❑ One or more DAE2P disk enclosures ❑ Disk drives approved by EMC For a list of supported RAID disks, refer to the EMC Storage Systems CX-Series Disk and Software Matrix (P/N 014003111), available on the Powerlink™ website. ❑ If your DAE2P is not already installed in a rackmount cabinet • One or more rails kits, and • the EMC Rails and Enclosures CX-Series Systems Field Installation Guide (P/N 300-001-799) ❑ Fibre Channel copper cables with high-speed serial data connector-2 (HSSDC2) connectors for cabling to SPE, DPE2, DAE2, or DAE2P: • Two HSSDC-HSSDC2 (to SPE or DPE2 storage processors or to a DAE2) • Two HSSDC2-HSSDC2 (to another DAE2P) ❑ EMC CLARiiON Storage-System Hardware and Software Documentation CD ❑ The configuration and planning guide appropriate for your system. ❑ EMC CLARiiON 2-Gigabit Point-to-Point Disk-Array Enclosure (DAE2P) Hardware Reference (P/N 300-002-407) for detailed instructions and descriptions of the steps outlined in this guide. ❑ EMC Navisphere Manager Administrator’s Guide (P/N 069001125). These manuals are available on the Powerlink website and the documentation CD. BEFORE YOU START IMPORTANT Be sure you have completed all of the following site and configuration preparations before you attempt to set up your DAE2Ps. 1. Confirm that your facility has appropriate electrical wiring in place to accommodate your cabinet’s power cables. The standard 40U EMC® cabinet includes two 240-volt ac power cables. To support all DAE2P high-availability features, you must connect each power outlet to a different circuit. 2. If you will connect the DAE2P to a storage device such as a CX-Series storage processor enclosure (SPE) or 2-gigabit disk processor enclosure (DPE2), make sure the device is installed in the cabinet and set up. Refer to the setup guide or hardware reference for the device. 3. If you will use EMC Navisphere® Manager to monitor DAE2P status, make sure that Navisphere Manager version 6.19 or higher is set up. Refer to the EMC Navisphere Manager Administrator’s Guide and the appropriate release notes as necessary. 4. If your DAE2P is not already installed in a cabinet, do so now. The EMC Rails and Enclosures CX-Series Systems Field Installation Guide describes how to install a 3U device like the DAE2P in a standard 19-inch NEMA cabinet. You can add DAE2P enclosures to active storage systems without powering down the existing system. Step 1 Connect DAE2P Power Cords 1. Connect one end of an ac power cable to the power connector on each DAE2P power supply. 2. Connect the other end to the nearest power outlet in the cabinet. For high availability, connect the power supplies to opposing side power strips so they do not share a single circuit. In the CX700 SPE example above, the first DAE2P is connected to a standby power supply (SPS). In DPE2 configurations, you should not connect a DAE2P to the SPS. Refer to the relevant setup guide or hardware reference for device- specific configuration rules. Step 2 Start DAE2Ps If the cabinet power is not already on, be sure the other devices in the system are correctly installed and ready for powerup; then 1. Plug the two 240-volt ac power cables into the power outlets in your facility. We recommend connecting each power cable to a different branch circuit. You must connect both power cables to the appropriate power source. Connecting only one power source will degrade the storage system’s performance. 2. Turn on the master switch (or main circuit breaker switch) for each of the cabinet’s side power strips. In most cabinets, the switches are located on the power distribution panel (PDP) or power distribution unit (PDU). The green power lights on the front of the DAE2P chassis and on each disk drive indicate that power is on; an amber chassis light indicates a fault. If an amber light on the front of a DAE2P is lit, make sure the disks are completely seated. Then refer to the fault code explanations in Chapter 3 of the DAE2P Hardware Reference, available on the Powerlink website and the Documentation CD. If you cannot determine any reasons for errors, contact your DAE2P service provider. Step 3 Set DAE2P Enclosure Address(es) Blue LEDs on the back of the DAE2P indicate the enclosure address (EA). Each disk enclosure (DPE2, DAE2, or DAE2P) in a given back-end loop (bus) requires a unique number; we strongly suggest that you number enclosures consecutively. NOTE An integrated disk-and-processor enclosure, such as a DPE2, is always the first disk enclosure on the first loop (0,0). Unless integrated in a storage system, the DAE2P ships with a default EA. To increment the EA, press the EA switch button on either link control card with a tool such as a pen, paper clip, or small screwdriver. If this will be the first enclosure on a loop, set the EA to 0. If you are adding the DAE2P to a populated loop, change the EA to the next available address. You must set the enclosure address when power is on and the enclosure is not yet connected to a back-end loop. Illustrations on the next page show typical loop/address configurations.
