HP NetServer AA outlets to go to each tuple as pictured above. One of the PDUs will have to be used for the video monitor. NOTE If four NetServer LH4s are rack-mounted in a single cabinet, four PDUs are required. UPS systems are highly recommended and should be used for each PDU. For the optimum in power protection, AC sources should be from different circuits, different phases, and different transformers to two UPS systems and then to the rack to the extent possible. Power On Sequence Once the HPAA system has been racked, cabled, and the power distribution setup, a few components are already powered on. The SSDLs will be powered on and the NetServers are in standby power. Before powering on the NetServers, first power on the console switch and the monitor. The CEs cannot fully boot up until the IOPs are booted, so the NetServer power on sequence is as follows: 1. Power on IOP 1 - Watch the POST and boot operation to make sure the hardware is properly detected and working. When the Windows NT menu comes on the screen, choose "Online Marathon Mode" (the default) hit . Move onto the next system. 2. Power on IOP2 - Again, watch the boot operations, verify the hardware and choose "Online Marathon Mode." When the second IOP has completely booted into Windows NT Server and is on the logon screen, logon to one of the IOPs and launch the Marathon Manager from "Start > Programs > Marathon > Marathon Manager." The console manager will display a status of the array and the four servers. The two bottom servers are the IOPs and they should be "green" and in a ready state; the IOPs have "joined" each other. If not, then launch the Marathon Manager on the other IOP, check error 2-10 Hewlett-Packard Company

outlets to go to each tuple as pictured above.
One of the PDUs will
have to be used for the video monitor.
NOTE
If four NetServer LH4s are rack-mounted in a single cabinet,
four PDUs are required.
UPS systems are highly recommended and should be used for each
PDU.
For the optimum in power protection, AC sources should be
from different circuits, different phases, and different transformers to
two UPS systems and then to the rack to the extent possible.
Power On Sequence
Once the HPAA system has been racked, cabled, and the power
distribution setup, a few components are already powered on.
The
SSDLs will be powered on and the NetServers are in standby power.
Before powering on the NetServers, first power on the console
switch and the monitor.
The CEs cannot fully boot up until the IOPs
are booted, so the NetServer power on sequence is as follows:
1.
Power on IOP 1 – Watch the POST and boot operation to make
sure the hardware is properly detected and working.
When the
Windows NT menu comes on the screen, choose “Online
Marathon Mode” (the default) hit <Enter>.
Move onto the next
system.
2.
Power on IOP2 – Again, watch the boot operations, verify the
hardware and choose “Online Marathon Mode.”
When the
second IOP has completely booted into Windows NT Server and
is on the logon screen, logon to one of the IOPs and launch the
Marathon Manager from “Start > Programs > Marathon >
Marathon Manager.”
The console manager will display a status
of the array and the four servers.
The two bottom servers are the IOPs and they should be “green”
and in a ready state; the IOPs have “joined” each other.
If not,
then launch the Marathon Manager on the other IOP, check error
