It contains information and instructions for installing and operating SPHERAS software and for configuring and maintaining FibreCAT S80 systems.

6 Target group This manual is addressed to systems administrators, skilled customer personnel and operating and maintenance personnel using SPHERAS software running on FibreCAT S80 systems. In order to fully understand the installation and configuration instructions in this manual, you should be familiar with the related hardware, operating systems, data transmission, RAID systems and the English language. Attention Do not mix different versions of Spheras Storage Manager! U41578-J-Z875-1-76 1. Preparing for installation Cabling layout Before you download the Spheras software, you should check the cabling layout of your installation once again.

7 With some cable layouts the failure of a shelf can cause the disconnection of shelves lower down in the cascade with the result that these are no longer available. We recommend that you choose a cascaded cable layout which ensures that a shelf is available at all times even in the event of a failure of a shelf higher up in the cascade. The three cabling examples below show how you can do this. U41578-J-Z875-1-76 3. Preparing for installation I/O Modul I/O Modul CO/CO CO/CO. RAID RAID.

Preparing for installation Using and connecting up the universal power supply unit To ensure the optimum mains power supply fault tolerance, you should connect up the power supply as shown in the examples below.

Legend: PS = Power Supply, UPS = Universal Power Supply, L1 = Powerline 1 (Phase 1), L2 = PowerLine 1 (Phase 2). Instructions for mechanical assembly and installation Fit the shelf to your 19 rack. Full assembly instructions are given on the Storage web site. Start from the lowest shelf at floor level and work upwards. Use a pointed pin to set the shelf ID switches. Set the controller shelf ID to 0. Set the first expansion shelf ID to 1, the second expansion shelf ID to 2.

10 And so on. Set all the shelves without leaving any gaps in ID numbering. Do not leave any empty spaces. Connect up the two power supply units with the power supply cables. Use the redundancy shown in the diagram above. Switch on both of the power supply units of the expansion shelves first. Switch on the power supply unit of the controller shelf last. Switch off in reverse order, switch off the controller shelf first and then the expansion shelves. Next, connect up the Host Bus Adapter (HBA). U41578-J-Z875-1-76 7. Preparing for installation When you use the configuration software, you must first connect the control- ler C0 on the right-hand side and the port C0-0 with the HBA optical cable (see the figure below); only connect the controller C0 and the port C0-0.
