6 Verifying Setup and Powering On the Storage System This section describes the verification of procedures for setting up and powering on all components in the storage system. NOTE: To avoid any cabling errors, all drive enclosures must have at least one or more hard drives installed before powering on the enclosure. Verifying Setup To complete the installation, you must verify the power connection and final positioning and then power on the storage system. Verifying Power Connections Verify the following before powering on the storage system: • Redundant Power • Power cord connections • AC cord connections • Main power cords NOTE: Secure the power cord with the retainer by placing the wire into the circular loop and cinching it closed. You can slide the retainer by lifting the small tab behind the circular loop. Redundant Power The racks use redundant PDUs and power supplies to provide power redundancy throughout the system. Before powering on the storage system, verify that the system has a valid redundant power configuration connected to independent electrical power providers. Each of the PDUs must connect to a power socket with power being separately supplied by an independent electrical power source. CAUTION: Ensure the storage system does not exceed the ratings of the power sources and PDUs, and adheres to the guidelines described in HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 Storage Site Planning Manual. Power Cord Connections Each storage system arrives with all internal power cords configured and connected. Before powering on the storage system, verify the following: • The AC cords are correctly configured and properly connected to the component • The AC cord locks and cable ties on the PDUs and PCMs are properly connected • If you have a physical SP, verify it is properly connected to the PDU Repositioning the Storage System Install the rear door of the storage system and filler panels that may not have been completed during installation. If you have not positioned the storage system in a permanent operating location, as described in "Positioning the Cabinet" (page 15), place the storage system in its final position before powering on.

6 Verifying Setup and Powering On the Storage System
This section describes the verification of procedures for setting up and powering on all components
in the storage system.
NOTE:
To avoid any cabling errors, all drive enclosures must have at least one or more hard
drives installed before powering on the enclosure.
Verifying Setup
To complete the installation, you must verify the power connection and final positioning and then
power on the storage system.
Verifying Power Connections
Verify the following before powering on the storage system:
•
Redundant Power
•
Power cord connections
•
AC cord connections
•
Main power cords
NOTE:
Secure the power cord with the retainer by placing the wire into the circular loop and
cinching it closed. You can slide the retainer by lifting the small tab behind the circular loop.
Redundant Power
The racks use redundant PDUs and power supplies to provide power redundancy throughout the
system. Before powering on the storage system, verify that the system has a valid redundant power
configuration connected to independent electrical power providers. Each of the PDUs must connect
to a power socket with power being separately supplied by an independent electrical power
source.
CAUTION:
Ensure the storage system does not exceed the ratings of the power sources and
PDUs, and adheres to the guidelines described in
HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 Storage Site Planning
Manual
.
Power Cord Connections
Each storage system arrives with all internal power cords configured and connected. Before
powering on the storage system, verify the following:
•
The AC cords are correctly configured and properly connected to the component
•
The AC cord locks and cable ties on the PDUs and PCMs are properly connected
•
If you have a physical SP, verify it is properly connected to the PDU
Repositioning the Storage System
Install the rear door of the storage system and filler panels that may not have been completed
during installation. If you have not positioned the storage system in a permanent operating location,
as described in
“Positioning the Cabinet” (page 15)
, place the storage system in its final position
before powering on.
