Virtual Array Installation Guide
Step 3. Set FC Loop Speed Switch (VA 7400 with DS 2405 Disk System)
When installing a VA 7400 that includes DS 2405 Disk Systems, the FC Loop
Speed switch on the disk enclosure LCCs must be set to 1GB/s. Failure to set
the switch on both LCCs in each disk enclosure will disrupt the FC loop and
cause the entire array to malfunction.
Note
This step is not required when installing a VA 7410 or VA 7110.
These products have a 2 Gbit/sec back-end, which is the default
FC Loop Speed switch setting on the DS 2405.
1
Attach an ESD strap to ground.
2
Remove the LCC from the disk enclosure. See
Figure 7
.
a
Loosen the locking thumbscrews on the LCC.
b
Pull out on the controller cam latches to remove the LCC.
3
Set the configuration dip switch to 1GB/s link speed. See
Figure 8
.
4
Reinstall the LCC in the disk enclosure.
a
Open the controller cam latches by pulling them away from the center.
b
Slide the LCC into the enclosure until it meets the backplane.
c
Press the cam latches inward and flat against the center.
d
Tighten the locking thumbscrews .
5
Repeat for both LCCs in every disk enclosure.
