Step 8: Turn on the Disk System Caution When starting up the disk system, do not override automatic spinup by issuing SCSI start commands to the drives. Doing so could cause an overcurrent fault, requiring a power cycle to recover. Press in the power/standby switch with the retracted tip of a pen or pencil to power-on the array (see Figure 47). Allow 2 minutes for the disk drives and controllers to complete their self-tests. 1. Press the power switch (A in Figure 47) to turn on the disk system. 2. Watch the system LEDs for confirmation that the disk system is operational. The system power LED (B) should be green, and the fault LED (C) should be off. If the LEDs indicate a problem, refer to Chapter 4, Troubleshooting. Note An amber light that is on briefly when a component turns on is normal. If this light remains on more than a couple of seconds, a fault has been detected. 80 Installation

Installation
Step 8: Turn on the Disk System
Caution
When starting up the disk system, do not override automatic spin-
up by issuing SCSI start commands to the drives. Doing so could
cause an overcurrent fault, requiring a power cycle to recover.
Press in the power/standby switch with the retracted tip of a pen or pencil to
power-on the array (see
Figure 47
). Allow 2 minutes for the disk drives and
controllers to complete their self-tests.
1.
Press the power switch (A in
Figure 47
) to turn on the disk system.
2.
Watch the system LEDs for confirmation that the disk system is
operational. The system power LED (B) should be green, and the fault
LED (C) should be off.
If the LEDs indicate a problem, refer to Chapter 4, Troubleshooting.
Note
An amber light that is on briefly when a component turns on is
normal. If this light remains on more than a couple of seconds, a
fault has been detected.
