Turning On the Array
Before turning on power, allow sufficient time for the array to adjust to ambient temperature (for example,
overnight).
Note:
You can turn on the power to one power supply first (either one), or both at the same time.
1.
Find the power switch, located either below the power plug on a 2U array or above the power plug on a 4U
array. See
Figure 8
and
Figure 9
.
2.
Press the power switch to the ON position. The power indicators will light.
Batteries will start to charge and some hardware components will start to synchronize. LEDs will indicate these
normal activities. The battery backup unit installed in each controller is shipped in a partially discharged state.
The first time the system is powered on, a boot delay of up to 30 minutes might be experienced while the battery
is charged to full capacity.
