General Notes
Please observe the following general important notes:
● Do not lift the enclosure by the handles on the rear modules or the
PCMs. They are not designed to take the weight. Only lift from underneath the main chassis.
● If this equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer,
the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
● The optional RJ45 socket on the I/O module, it is for Ethernet connection
only and must not be connected to a telecommunications network.
● All plug-in modules and blank plates are part of the fire enclosure and
must only be removed when a replacement can be immediately added.
The system must not be run without all modules or blanks in place.
● Unplug the unit before you move it or if you think it has become
damaged in any way.
● The plug on the power supply cord is used as the main disconnect
device. Ensure that the socket outlets are located near the equipment
and are easily accessible.
● When powered by multiple AC sources, disconnect all supply power for
complete isolation.
● In order to comply with applicable safety, emission and thermal require-
ments no covers should be removed and all bays must be populated with
plug-in modules or blanks.
● The power connection should always be disconnected prior to removal of
a PCM/PSU from the enclosure.
● A safe electrical earth connection must be provided to the power supply
cords. Check the grounding of the enclosure before applying power.
● Provide a suitable power source with electrical overload protection to
meet the requirements laid down in the technical specification.
● Do not remove PCMs, Cooling Modules, PSUs or I/O Modules unless
you have a replacement model of the correct type ready for insertion.
● Connect the system to an uninterruptible power supply redundantly on
two phases.
● It is recommended that you fit and check a suitable anti-static wrist or
ankle strap and observe all conventional ESD precautions when
handling plug-in modules and components. Avoid contact with backplane
components and module connectors, etc.

General Notes
2U Enclosures
Please observe the following general important notes:
● An enclosure can weigh up to to 26 kg (57lb) depending on configura-
tion. Do not try to lift the enclosure by yourself.
● It is advisable to remove all plug-in modules to minimize weight before
lifting the enclosure.
● The enclosure must only be operated from a power supply input voltage
range of 100-240 VAC.

Safety
General Notes
SpycerNode
● When bifurcated power cords (‘Y’ leads) are used, they must only be
connected to a supply range of 200-240 V.
● A faulty PCM must be replaced with a fully operational module within 24
hours.
5U Enclosure
Please observe the following general important notes:
● Important: The enclosure must be mounted in a rack.
● An unpopulated enclosure can weigh up to 45kg (100lb). Use appro-
priate lifting methods.
● A fully populated enclosure weighs 135kg (298lb). Only lift the enclosure
when the drawers are empty and latched closed. Do not attempt to lift
the enclosure when populated with drives.
● When closing the drawers, do so firmly, ensuring the latches are
engaged.
● Do not attempt to disassemble the rear sub-chassis from the enclosure.
● Operating temperatures inside the enclosure drawers can reach up to
60°C. Take care when opening drawers and removing drive carriers.
● If any component of the product fails, consult your storage vendor.
● For North American use, each branch circuit must be rated for 20A.
● The equipment is suitable for connection to an IT power system
(Norway), when mounted in a Restricted Access Location where equipotential bonding has been applied by a service person.
● Double pole/neutral fusing in PSUs.
● Risk of explosion if the battery within the RAID controller is replaced with
an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
There are no user serviceable parts within the RAID controller.
● Due to product acoustics it is recommended that users wear ear protec-
tion for any prolonged exposure.
● To prevent over-turning, drawer interlocks stop users from opening both
drawers at the same time. Do not attempt to force open a drawer when
the other drawer is already open.
● The product ratings are: voltage: 200 to 240 VAC; current: 16A or 13A
per inlet; frequency: 50 to 60 Hz. This information can also be found on
the back of the PSUs.

Product Description
Function
Function
With SpycerNode, Rohde & Schwarz has brought enterprise-class storage
features to the media and entertainment market segment. Today’s exponential growth of data and transactions is demanding larger and larger amounts
of unstructured data storage and management across diverse workloads. As
each department or division attempts to satisfy its own storage and performance needs, your organization can find itself with many disparate systems
isolated from each other. This can result in expensive resource duplication,
complicated management and isolated pools of data. In addition, the
resulting islands of information may hold valuable insights that may not be
accessible in such a fragmented environment. Traditional RAID is no longer
an effective mechanism for data protection for modern disk drives, since it
can take several hours or even days to rebuild a failed drive. Advanced
erasure coding to spread the data and shorten recovery time is required to
avoid the catastrophic results of multi-disk failures with traditional RAID.
The R&S SpycerNode with its ideal physical sizes as a building block is easy
to install and deploy. IT managers appreciate features such as two-digit
front-panel shelf ID, activity and status indicators for all key components,
alarms and lockable carriers. With a “no single point of failure” design and
support for both dual ported NL-SAS and dual ported SSD-drives, the R&S
SpycerNode is ready to fulfill a wide variety of applications.

Certified Clients for SpycerNode
There are different ways to connect clients to SpycerNode.
SpycerNode exposes the storage via the NSD (Network Shared Disk)
protocol to the ethernet network. A NSD client is any server or workstation
that has the native Spectrum Scale protocol installed and is designated to
operate as a client. Physically reading or writing user data to the SAN disks
is done on behalf of the NSD clients that trigger the disk operations
The following operating systems are supported for native Spectrum Scale 5
clients:
● Windows 10
● RHEL/CentOS 7.1 (or later)
● SLES12 SP1 (or later)
● Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04.1
Besides the native clients following file sharing protocols are supported:

Drives
Drives are provided with dual interfaces and these are connected into separate storage domains. Therefore a fault in one controller does not prevent
the other from operating.
All drives are dual ported, so more than one initiator will be communicating
with the device at any point in time. All drives therefore support SCSI reservations. This is a method to allow a controller to “own” access to a given
device, reserving it for its exclusive use.
All drives provide error detection and correction capabilities. These are
reported to the application in line with the SCSI specifications.
The order of the hard drives in an enclosure is
virtualized, and may bear no resemblance to the order shown here.

I/O Modules
A pair of I/O modules (of identical type) are provided in the enclosure so that
the system can operate in HA (high available) mode. Incoming data is
processed and eventually stored on the storage devices within the enclosure
or on expansion enclosures.
Data Integrity is provided by protection of all data buses with at least parity
protection, but more commonly error-correcting memory as provided on the
main DRAM.
