Setting up the Hardware Step 3 - Install the Power 2 Step 3 - Install the Power After you connect the Ethernet cable, you are ready to power up the NSS. There are several possible power configurations. We suggest that a UPS be used since a sudden loss of power can cause RAID corruption and possible data loss. The following procedure provides details for each of these options. To connect the power to the NSS: STEP 1 Depending on your power configuration, do one of the following: • UPS: Connect the power cable to the Power port on the NSS and to an available port on the UPS. You then need to connect the USB signal cable from the UPS to the UPS port on the NSS. For more information about choosing a UPS, refer to the list of supported UPS product families. • Mains: Connect the power cable to the Power port on the NSS and to the mains power. STEP 2 Press the Power button and confirm the Power LED on the front of the NSS chassis turns yellow. Congratulations! You have successfully set up the NSS hardware. You are now ready to configure the NSS for your unique business storage needs.
