Preparatory Tasks

Before starting the installation process, you should complete the following tasks:
Make sure that the installation site meets all area, environmental, and power
requirements discussed in this book. Order all necessary equipment and kits, including:
Hosts and host adapters
Interface cables
Mounting hardware and blank panel kits (for rackmount installations only)
Install all applicable hosts, host adapters, and command modules.
If you are preparing a rackmount installation, move the rackmount cabinet to its final
location and install all optional equipment (support rails, panels, command modules, etc.). Route all power and auxiliary cables in the cabinet.
Attach t he interface cables t o th e a pp ro p riate command modu le s and route them to th e
area in which you intend to install the drive modules.

Tools and Equip ment You May Need

To complete the installation procedure, you need the following items:
Two power cords (shipped with unit)
Screwdrivers and wrenches (various sizes)
Antistatic protection (such as a grounded wrist strap)
Interface cables, terminators, and tie wraps
Mounting hardware (for rackmount installations only)
Table or cart (optional)
Storage management software (to configure the disk array)

Area Requirements

The floor space at the installation site must provide:
Enough stability to support the weight of the drive module or E2400 command
module, and associated equipment (see "Weights" on this page) Sufficient space to install, operate, and service the drive module or E2400 command
module (see "Dimensions" on page 12 and "Airflow" on page 16)

Weights

The drive modules or E2400 command modules total weight depends on the number of components installed in the chassis. Refer to the following weight tables for information on each model:
E3300 drive module – see Table 2 on page 7
FC-1 10x drive module – see Table 3 on page 8
E2400 10x command module – see Table 4 on page 9
FC-1 14x drive module – see Table 5 on page 10

Site Wiring Requirements

Review the following information when preparing the drive module or E2400 command module installation site.
Earth ground The unit must be properly grounded, including an earth ground
conductor on the AC power source.
Circuit overloading Make sure the power circuits and associated circuit breakers in
the cabinet and building provide sufficient power and overload protection. To prevent possible damage to the unit, isolate its power source from large switching loads (such as air conditioning motors).
Po wer interruptions The drive module or E2400 command module will withstand
the following applied voltage interruptions:
Input transient: 50% of nominal voltage
Duration: one half cycle
Minimum f requency: once every 10 seconds
Power failures Once power is restored after a complete power failure, the unit
automatically performs a power-up recovery sequence without operator intervention.

Site Wiring and Voltages

The drive modules and E2400 command module use wide-ranging, redundant power supplies that automatically match voltages to the AC power source. They are a 120 /220 VAC, 50/60 Hz units that meet standard voltage requirements for both domestic (USA) and international (outside USA) operation. They use standard industrial wiring with a line-to-neutral or line-to-line power connections (Table 10).

Drive Module Power Requirements

E3300 Drive Module

The AC power source must provide the correct voltage, current, and frequency specified on the manufacturer’s nameplate. Internal AC power units for rackmount cabinets must be able to handle the power requirements for this unit (Table 11).

Power Connections

The drive module uses two AC power cords (one for each power supply). In order to meet power r e qu ir emen ts and ma inta in power redundancy, you must con n ect the dri v e mo du le to either 90-136 VAC or 198-257 VAC, 15 A circuits as described below.
Redundant power, 90-136 V Connect as follows:
If three or less drive modules are connected to a command module, use two 90-136
V, 15 A circuits. Connect one power supply from each drive module to one circuit and the other power supplies to the second circuit.
If more than three drive modules are connected to a command module, use four
90-136 V, 15 A circuits. Connect one half of the drive modules to two circuits and the remaining drive modules to the other two circuits. Make sure that each drive module connects to two different circuits (one per power supply).
Redunda nt po wer, 198-257 V Use two 198 V-257 V, 15 A circuits. Connect one power
supply from each drive module to one circuit and the other power supply to the second circuit.

Power Cord Routing

Some rackmount cabinets have two AC distribution boxes. Each AC distribution box has its own power cord. Because of limited space inside the cabinet, it may be easier to connect and route power cords before installing the support rails and command module. You may connect power to a command module in a rackmount cabinet in three ways:
Redundant power to cabinet and drive module Connect the AC boxes in the cabinet
to two, independent, external power sources. Connect one power cord from each drive module to each AC box in the cabinet.
Redundant power to cabinet; non-redundant to drive module Connect the AC boxes
in the cabinet to two, independent, external power sources. Connect both power cords from the drive module to one AC box in the rackmount cabinet.
Non-redundant power to cabin e t and drive module Connect both AC boxes in the
cabinet to a single power source. Connect both power cords from the drive module to one or both AC boxes in the rackmount cabinet.

Power Cord Routing

The drive module and command module use two AC power cords (one for each power supply). You must have an independent AC power source for each power supply in the drive module and command module in order to maintain redundancy. This applies to both deskside and rackmount models.
Some rackmount cabinets have two AC distribution boxes. Each AC distribution box has its own power cord. To ensure red undancy, connect the AC boxes in the cabinet to two independent power sources. Then, connect one power cord from each drive module or command module to each AC box in the cabinet (Figure 5).

Drive Module Cable Requirements

E3300 Interface Cables

The E3300 drive module has two SCSI connectors. To connect the drive module to a SYM1000E command module, you must use 68-pin, VHDCI (very high density cable interface) LVD, Ultra SCSI-2 cables.
The maximum length for any SCSI, 68-pin HD cable is 25 m (82 ft.) or 12 m (39 ft.) for VHDCI cable. The total length includes both internal and external cabling. The SCSI cabling inside this drive module is approximately 0.1 m (4 in.) for the host bus. Table 14 lists the SCSI cables that you can use on this drive module.

FC-1 10x, E2400 10x, FC-1 14x, and E2400 14x Interface Cables

The drive modules and command modules support Fibre Channel connections to the command modules. They have four gigabit interface converter (GBIC) connectors, two on each ESM or controller. The connectors may be fiber optic or copper. The type of connector depends on what type of drive interface you ordered and what type of cable you are using to attach the drive module or command module to the command module.
If you ordered optical GBIC connectors, you will need fiber optic cable. If you ordered copper GBIC connectors, you will need copper wire cable. Table 15 lists the types and lengths of cable available from your local dealer.
