After you install all hardware components, you must power on the system and check its
status.
Attention: Do not power on the system with any open bays or slots. Open bays or slots
disrupt the internal air flow, causing the drives to receive insufficient cooling.
- Every unused drive bay must be occupied by a filler panel.
- Filler panels must be installed in all empty host interface adapter slots.
To power on the system, complete the following steps.
-
Wait for all expansion enclosures to finish powering on.
-
Power on the control enclosure. Use the supplied power cords to connect all of the power supply
units of the enclosure to their power sources.
If the power sources have circuit breakers or switches, ensure that they are turned on. The
enclosure does not have power switches.
Notes:
- Each enclosure has two power supply units. To provide power failure redundancy, connect the two
power cords to separate power circuits.
- Ensure that each power cable is secured to each PSU on the back of the enclosure.
- 240V high line power is required.
Next, you will connect an Ethernet cable to the technician port on the control enclosure,
and initialize the system.
