this document This document describes how to install an M6612 or M6625 disk enclosure into a rack as part of an P6300/P6500 EVA storage array. The disk enclosure installation may be performed while the array is in operation. You can only add one disk enclosure online at a time. These instructions do - HP EVA P6000 | HP P6300/P6500 EVA M6612/6625 Disk Enclosure Installation Instruc - Page 4
screws fit inside the square or round holes of the rack (2, Figure 1 (page 4)). NOTE: If installing rails in a square hole rack, use larger-sized shoulder screws and pins for mounting. If installing rails in a round hole rack, use smaller-sized shoulder screws and pins for mounting.

cords on the right side. • The P6300 EVA supports a maximum of 10 disk enclosures. The P6500 supports a maximum of 20 disk enclosures. Due to space constraints, the diagrams in this document show a minimum number of disk enclosures. However, you can follow these instructions and diagrams for any - HP EVA P6000 | HP P6300/P6500 EVA M6612/6625 Disk Enclosure Installation Instruc - Page 8
Connect the cable from DP-B (Red) on controller 1 to I/O module B port P2 on the newly installed disk enclosure closest to the controller enclosure (1, Figure 10 (page 8)) (the newly installed disk enclosures are the top two).
