DD560, DD460, DD430, and DD410 Systems
71
Installation
The DD560, DD560g, DD460, DD460g, DD430 and DD410 systems support up to one of the
following IO cards. The user has the choice of one of the following optional Ethernet PCI-X NICs
or VTL.
•
Dual port copper 1Gb (1000 BASE-T) Ethernet PCI-X NIC with RJ45 connectors
•
Dual port optical 1Gb (1000 BASE-SX) multi-mode fiber Ethernet PCI-X NIC with LC
connectors
•
One optional single port 2 Gbps VTL Fibre Channel PCI-X HBA.
Ethernet Failover and Aggregation is not supported in DD OS 4.3.x or earlier.
Installation
Installation and site configuration for DD560, DD460, DD430, and DD410 Data Domain systems
consist of the tasks listed below. After configuration, the Data Domain system is fully functional
and ready for backups. For site requirements, see “Power and Weight Specifications” on page 18.
Note
“Data Domain Gateway Systems”contains instructions for installing and configuring a Data
Domain Gateway system (for example, a DD460g system).
•
Set up the system hardware.
•
To use DHCP with Ethernet interfaces, configure the DHCP server with the appropriate Data
Domain system information. To configure a Data Domain system using an Ethernet interface,
DHCP information is required for at least one interface. The alternative is to use a serial
console or a keyboard and monitor. See “DHCP Server” on page 74 for more details.
•
Set up a serial console or a monitor and keyboard if you are not using an Ethernet interface for
configuration.
Caution
The two side brackets on the system’s front faceplate (see Figure 33 on page 73) cannot
support the weight of the system in a rack. Support the system with the slide rails that
are delivered with the system.
1.
Mount the system in a 3U space in a 19-inch, four-post rack using the slide rails provided by
Data Domain. Any other means of mounting the system must be rated for at least 100 pounds
(45 kilograms).
Do not install a system in a two-post rack.
a.
Open the slide rails package that ships with the system.
b.
Using the slide rail instruction and rack template documents that are included with other
system documentation, mount the inner rails onto the system.
