6. Connect to the serial port (cable is provided) to access the command-line user interface at initial configuration (item 5 in the figure). Also connect to this during debug activities. Disconnect from this port during normal operations. NOTE: You must connect to the monitor and keyboard ports (item 6 in the figure) when performing Quick Restore (keyboard and monitor not included). 7. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to NIC2 (item 8 in the figure). Connect the other end of the cable to port 1 of Switch 2824 (see Install cables on Switch 2524, below). 8. Connect one end of a USB cable to the USB port (item 9 in the figure). Connect the other end of the cable to the USB/Ethernet adapter. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet end of the adapter, then connect the Ethernet cable to port 1 of Switch 2524 (see Install cables on Switch 2524, below). 9. Connect a power cable to each power supply (items 10 and 11 in the figure) and to a PDU. If possible, connect each power supply to a separate PDU to provide redundancy. 12 Install cables on the secondary node(s) of the VLS300 Gateway NOTE: Use this procedure to install any secondary node: node 1 which is shipped with the gateway or upgrade nodes 2-7 which can be ordered separately. 12 34 7 8 1. Connect one end of an FC cable (not provided) to host port 0 (item 1 in the figure above). Connect the other end to an external FC switch/fabric that connects to your tape backup hosts. 2. If desired, connect one end of an FC cable (not provided) to host port 1 (item 2 in the figure above). Connect the other end to an external FC switch/fabric that connects to your tape backup hosts. Otherwise, connect a loopback plug to host port 1. 3. Connect one end of an FC cable (not provided) to device port 3 (item 3 in the figure above). Connect the other end to an external FC switch/fabric that connects to your external array. 4. Connect one end of an FC cable (not provided) to device port 2 (item 4 in the figure above). Connect the other end to a second external FC switch/fabric that connects to your external array. 5. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to NIC2 (item 5 in the figure above). Connect the other end of the cable to port 2 of Switch 2824. 6. Connect one end of a USB cable to the USB port (item 6 in the figure above). Connect the other end of the cable to the USB/Ethernet adapter. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet end of the adapter, then connect the Ethernet cable to port 2 of Switch 2524. 7. Connect a power cable to each power supply (items 7 and 8 in the figure above) on the node and to a PDU. If possible, connect to separate PDUs to provide redundancy. NOTE: For each additional node, connect cables from NIC2 and the USB port to the next available ports on both switches. For example, connect the 3rd node to switch ports 3, connect the 4th node to switch ports 4, etc. 56 1) Dual port FC card, host port, port 0 2) Dual port FC card, host port, port 1 3) Dual port FC card, device port, port 3 4) Dual port FC card, device port, port 2 5) NIC2, on secondary nodes connects to the next available port of switch 2824 6) USB port, connects to USB/Ethernet adapter 7) Power supply 2 8) Power supply 1
