3.3 General Installation Procedure
The following instructions can save installation time. Detailed, illustrated instructions for each
component are given in the following sections.
1. Unpack: Unpack the subsystem and confirm that all the components on the Unpacking
Checklist have been included.
2. Rack/Cabinet installation: If the subsystem is going to be installed in a rack or cabinet, it
should be installed prior to installing the hard drives. Installing the subsystem into a rack
or cabinet requires at least two (2) people.
3. Install drive trays: After the hard drives have been installed into the drive trays, the drive
trays must be installed into the enclosure itself. (See Section 3.6 Drive Tray Installation)
4. Cable connection: Use the power cords that came with the subsystem to connect the
subsystem to the main power source. Use self-purchased SCSI cable to connect host
ports to servers.
5. Power up: Once the components have been properly installed and all cables are properly
connected, you can power up the subsystem and configure the RAID array. (See
Section 5.4 Power On)
