This section explains how to turn on the ETERNUS DX.
To turn on the ETERNUS DX, perform the following procedure.
Via the power switch
•
Press the Power switch to turn on the ETERNUS DX.
The following methods can be used to turn the power on by linking with the server.
Power Synchronized Unit
•
Use the power synchronized unit to turn on the ETERNUS DX.
Wake On LAN
•
Use the Wake On LAN function to turn on the power.
Before turning on the ETERNUS DX, make sure that the main line switches of the power distribution units
and the PSU switches on the power supply units of the ETERNUS DX are "ON". Do not turn the main line
switches of the power distribution units and the PSU switches on the ETERNUS DX to the OFF position.
After turning on the power of the ETERNUS DX, it takes approximately five minutes (or approximately 10
•
minutes for a Unified configuration and approximately 20 minutes for a VLAN/Bonding maximum configuration) to be in the READY state (the READY LED turns on). If an error is detected in a component
during the initial power-on diagnostics, it may take a maximum of 10 minutes (or a maximum of 11
minutes for a configuration in which the Deduplication/Compression function is enabled, approximately
40 minutes for a Unified configuration and approximately 50 minutes for a VLAN/Bonding maximum
configuration) for the ETERNUS DX to be in the READY state. If a scheduled operation is being performed, make configurations by taking the operation into consideration.
Before turning the server on, check that the ETERNUS DX and the network devices that connect the
•
ETERNUS DX and the server are all in READY status.
If the server is turned on while any of these devices are not in READY status, the server may not be able
to recognize the ETERNUS DX.
To turn on the ETERNUS DX by linking with the server, the server must wait until the ETERNUS DX is in
•
the READY state.
If the Auto Power function is enabled via ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI, the ETERNUS DX is automat-
•
ically turned on when power is supplied to the ETERNUS DX.
If the Power Resume function is enabled via ETERNUS Web GUI or ETERNUS CLI, the ETERNUS DX is auto-
•
matically turned on after the power is restored.
After power-off, wait for about one minute before turning power on again.
•
This section explains how to use the Power switch to turn on the ETERNUS DX.
For other procedures, refer to the related manuals.
When turning off the ETERNUS DX, the power shuts off after the write data on the cache memory is writ-
•
ten back to the drives. As a result, it may take approximately five minutes (or approximately 10 minutes
in a Unified configuration and 20 minutes in a VLAN/Bonding maximum configuration) or a maximum
of 10 minutes (or approximately 40 minutes in a Unified configuration and 50 minutes in a VLAN/Bonding maximum configuration) for the power supply to be completely turned off.
Do not turn off the power of the ETERNUS DX and the network devices that connect the ETERNUS DX to a
•
server while the server is operating. This may result in the loss of data or prevent data from being saved
in the ETERNUS DX.
When using a power synchronized unit for power control, turn off the power of the ETERNUS DX via the
•
power synchronized unit. When a power synchronized unit is connected, the power of the ETERNUS DX is
automatically turned on because the power synchronization function is activated.
To turn off the ETERNUS DX100 S4/DX200 S4, use the Power switch, a power synchronized unit, ETERNUS
•
Web GUI, or ETERNUS CLI. If any other method is used to turn off the ETERNUS DX, the replacement cycle
for a battery is shortened significantly because the battery continues to charge and discharge.
After power-off, wait for about one minute before turning power on again.
•
This section explains how to use the Power switch to turn off the ETERNUS DX.
For other procedures, refer to the related manuals.
1Press and hold the Power switch of the controller enclosure for four seconds or more.
The READY LED on the controller enclosure is turned off.
Press the Power switch only once. If the Power switch is pressed again between the time of the
READY LED turning off and the POWER LED turning off, the ETERNUS DX power may turn on.
2The power of the ETERNUS DX is disconnected.
When the power is disconnected, the POWER LED of the controller enclosure and the POWER LEDs of the
drive enclosures are turned off.
This section explains how to use the FUNCTION button of the controller enclosure.
The following settings can be performed by using the FUNCTION button:
Switching the Master CM to the other controller
•
For the two controllers in the ETERNUS DX, the controller through which the ETERNUS DX is set up and
operated is called the "Master CM", while the other controller is called the "Slave CM". The single-controller type only has a "Master CM" controller.
Restoring the factory default settings (network environment settings and firewall settings) of the LAN ports
•
Restoring the factory default user settings (user account, role, and RADIUS settings)
•
The following procedure explains how to use the FUNCTION button.
1Remove the flange cover of the controller enclosure.
2Change the status of the ETERNUS DX to maintenance status.
Use the pin to push down the FUNCTION button for three seconds.
The ETERNUS DX is in maintenance status when the MAINTENANCE LED is green.
Status of the ETERNUS DX is monitored periodically, and the result is displayed as a general status icon with
character strings.

3Wear a wrist strap or touch a metal part to discharge the human body's natural static electricity.
4Install the drive enclosure in the rack.
• 2.5"/3.5" type drive enclosures (for regions other than the EMEIA, North American, Central American,
and Caribbean regions)
(1) Adjust the sizes of the rack rail (for left side) and the rack rail (for right side) to fit the rack.
Loosen the M4 screws to adjust the length of the rack rails to match the distance between the
front and rear rack pillars. Leave the M4 screws slightly unscrewed, as the rack rails must be
attached to the rack before they can be completely tightened.
(2) Attach the rack rails to the rack.
Use the two plates to fasten the rack rails to the front rack pillars. Use the washers to fasten the
rack rails to the rear rack pillars.
Make sure to attach the rack rails to rack pillars so that they fit exactly together without any
space between them.
The M5 screw positions for the rack rails are determined by the drive enclosure base line.
Insert the M5 screws in the 1st and 6th holes on the front rack pillars above the base line and in
the 2nd and 5th holes on the rear rack pillars above the base line to fasten the rack rails.
(3) Tighten the M4 screws of the rack rails that were slightly unscrewed in Step (1).
(4) Install the drive enclosure in the rack.
- When installing or removing the drive enclosure to or from the rack,
make sure that the sides and the bottom of the drive enclosure are
held by two or more people. Failure to do so may cause injury.
• High-density drive enclosures (for regions other than the EMEIA, North American, Central American,
and Caribbean regions)
(1) Adjust the sizes of the rack rail (for left side) and the rack rail (for right side) to fit the rack.
Pull the rail lock lever in the direction of the arrow and unlock it to adjust the length of the rack
rails to match the distance between the front and the rear rack pillars. Leave the rail lock lever
unlocked because the rail lock lever is locked after the rack rail is installed.
- For safety and stability, use a lifter to install or remove high-density
drive enclosures in the rack.

11Disconnect the cables from I/O module line 1.
Remove the cable that connects the DI (OUT) port of CM#1 in the controller enclosure and the DI (IN)
port of IOM#1 in the drive enclosure, which is nearest to the drive enclosure that is to be added.
The following figure shows the cable (between CE and DE) that needs to be disconnected from the enclosures when drive enclosure 2 is added.
The FAULT LED for the DI (IN) port from which the cable is to be disconnected and the LINK/FAULT LED
for the DI (OUT) port in the controller enclosure turn on.
To add high-density drive enclosures, fasten the high-density drive enclosure cables (the mini SAS
HD cable between enclosures and the power cord) to the flap brackets and the cable management
arm on the rear of the device with the clamp belts.

5.3Installing Long Wave SFP+ Modules (16Gbit/s)
The Short wave SFP+ module (16Gbit/s) in the host interface (FC 16Gbit/s) can be replaced with an optional
Long wave SFP+ module (16Gbit/s) for an ETERNUS DX.
This section explains the installation rules, handling instructions, and replacement procedure for Long wave
SFP+ modules.
Make sure to read "Safety Precautions" before performing replacement of Long wave SFP+ modules.
Make sure to turn off the ETERNUS DX before replacing SFP+ modules (16Gbit/s).
Contact your sales representative or maintenance engineer to replace SFP+ modules (16Gbit/s) during system operation.
5.3.1Installation Rules for Long Wave SFP+ Modules (16Gbit/s)
One or two Short wave SFP+ modules (16Gbit/s) in a host interface (FC 16Gbit/s) can be replaced with Long
wave SFP+ modules (16Gbit/s).
Short wave SFP+ modules (16Gbit/s) and Long wave SFP+ modules (16Gbit/s) can be mixed in the same host
interface (FC 16Gbit/s).
When two controllers are installed, the SFP+ module configurations for controller 0 (CM#0) and controller 1
(CM#1) must be the same.
5.3.2Installable Long Wave SFP+ Modules (16Gbit/s)
For installable Long wave SFP+ modules (16Gbit/s), refer to "Product List".
5.3.3SFP+ Module Handling Instructions
● About Condensation
When moving an SFP+ module from a cold place, such as an un-conditioned store
•
house in winter, to a warmer places such as an air-conditioned room, the severe
temperature change may result in condensation forming.
To avoid this, allow the packed SFP+ modules sufficient time in the warmer place
(one hour for each 15°C of temperature difference) to adapt to the new temperature.
