Product Description General Description General Description Hewlett-Packard's SureStore E Carrier-Grade Disk System SC10 (referred to in this guide as the disk system) is a high-availability NEBS 3 certified Ultra2 SCSI storage product. Dual SCSI ports on dual bus controllers provide LVD connections to the host. Ten slots accept high-speed, high-capacity LVD/SE SCSI disks connected to a SE backplane. Data throughput is 40 Mbytes/sec. Eleven disk systems fill a 2-meter System/E rack. Modular and redundant components are easy to upgrade and maintain. Disks, fans, power supplies, and bus control cards (BCCs) are replaceable parts that plug into individual slots in the front and back of the disk system. Redundant fans, power supplies, and BCCs can be removed and replaced without interrupting storage operations. Disks also can be replaced with the system on and with only the affected disks taken off-line. Hewlett-Packard technical support is optional for these procedures. Special electronics and HP-UX software enable remote monitoring and diagnostics. Sensors on the BCCs monitor the disk system environment, including temperature, voltage, fan speed, and component status. Hewlett-Packard's Event Monitoring System (EMS) reports any changes in environmental status to user-defined locations, including email accounts and a system console. Standard HP-UX diagnostic utilities also report environmental data for enhanced troubleshooting.

General Description
Hewlett-Packard’s SureStore E Carrier-Grade Disk System SC10
(referred to in this guide as the disk system) is a high-availability NEBS
3 certified Ultra2 SCSI storage product. Dual SCSI ports on dual bus
controllers provide LVD connections to the host. Ten slots accept
high-speed, high-capacity LVD/SE SCSI disks connected to a SE
backplane. Data throughput is 40 Mbytes/sec. Eleven disk systems fill a
2-meter System/E rack.
Modular and redundant components are easy to upgrade and maintain.
Disks, fans, power supplies, and bus control cards (BCCs) are replaceable
parts that plug into individual slots in the front and back of the disk
system. Redundant fans, power supplies, and BCCs can be removed and
replaced without interrupting storage operations. Disks also can be
replaced with the system on and with only the affected disks taken
off-line. Hewlett-Packard technical support is optional for these
procedures.
Special electronics and HP-UX software enable remote monitoring and
diagnostics. Sensors on the BCCs monitor the disk system environment,
including temperature, voltage, fan speed, and component status.
Hewlett-Packard’s Event Monitoring System (EMS) reports any changes
in environmental status to user-defined locations, including email
accounts and a system console. Standard HP-UX diagnostic utilities also
report environmental data for enhanced troubleshooting.
