HP StorageWorks 300 Gateway
Virtual Library System
Installation
WARNING:
Each node weights 16.78 kg (37 lb).
At least two people are required to lift and rack
mount each node.
CAUTION:
Parts can be damaged by electrostatic
discharge.
Keep parts in their containers until
needed.
Ensure that you are properly grounded
when touching static sensitive components.
RACK REQUIREMENTS:
HP supports the HP System E
racks and the HP 10000 Series racks for use with the
virtual library system (VLS). Other racks might also be
suitable, but have not been tested with the VLS.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the rack and all
equipment mounted in the rack has a reliable
ground connection. Verify that the total current of
the rack components does not exceed the current
rating of the power distribution unit or outlet
receptacles.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury
or damage to the equipment, before installing
equipment be sure that:
•The rack leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
•The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling
jacks.
•The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it
is a single-rack installation.
•The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack
installations.
•Only one component is extended at a time.
A rack may become unstable if more than one
component is extended for any reason.
Inspect the contents of the box.
In addition to the
contents of the shipping cartons and an existing EVA,
you will need a #1 and a #2 Phillips screwdriver,
1 Ethernet cable to connect to the existing external
network, and 4 to 8 FC cables to connect from the
nodes to the external FC fabrics/switches.
