Power up and cable optional DAEs
2. Connect the DAE power cords to an appropriate power source.
In most cases, you should connect each power cord to the closest power
distribution unit (PDU) in a cabinet. For example, connect power/cooling module
A to the
right
PDU, and power/cooling module B to the PDU on the
left
(facing
the rear of the cabinet).
The A side and B side PDUs should be connected to separate power feed circuits.
That way, if power to one PDU fails, the storage-system enclosures connected to it
can continue to run.
