Installing the SAN Director 2/128 in a Rack
Read these sections for specific information on installing the SAN Director 2/128
in an HP 10,000 series, HP System/e cabinet, or an EIA comparable cabinet.
Pre-installation Checklist
Review the following checklist before installing the switch.
Prepare a site plan.
Verify that required technical personnel (two technicians) are available and
scheduled for the installation.
Obtain the required fiber-optic cables (multimode or single-mode). Verify
cable length and required connectors.
If applicable, obtain the necessary remote workstations or Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) workstations. Workstations are
customer-supplied and connected through a corporate or dedicated LAN.
Verify that the front panel air temperature does not exceed 40°C (104°F)
during operation.
Verify that all equipment installed in the rack has a reliable branch circuit
ground connection, and does not rely on a connection to a branch circuit, such
as a power strip.
Verify that the rack is balanced.
Check that the rack is mechanically secured to insure stability in the event of
an earthquake.
Items Required for Installation
Locate the following items before beginning the install procedure:
Lift device—a fully populated SAN Director 2/128 weighs approximately 250
lbs. The switch requires a minimum of two people and a hydraulic or assisted
lift to aid in moving the switch from the pallet to its operating location.
Two power outlets—identify one power outlet for each of the two power
cords. Installing each power cord at two separate sources ensures power
supply redundancy.
