 Step 5

Start DAE2s

1. Turn on the power for each DAE2 power supply.

2. If the cabinet power is not already on, be sure the other devices 

in the system are correctly installed and ready for powerup, then 

a. Plug the two 240-volt ac power cables into the power outlets in your 

facility. We recommend connecting each power cable to a different 
branch circuit. Both power cables must be connected to the 
appropriate power supply
. Connecting only one power source will 
degrade the DAE2’s performance. 

b. Turn on the circuit breakers on each of the cabinet’s side power 

strips.

The green power lights on the front of the DAE2 chassis and on each disk 
drive indicate that power is on; an amber chassis light indicates a fault. 

If an amber light on the front of a DAE2 is lit, make sure the DAE2 is 
correctly cabled, the enclosure addresses are correct, and the disks are 
completely seated. Then refer to the fault code explanations in Chapter 3 of 
the DAE2 Hardware Reference. If you cannot determine any reasons for 
errors, contact your DAE2 service provider. (If you have an EMC service 
contract, contact EMC Customer Service at USA (800) 782-4362, 
Canada (800) 543-4782, or worldwide (508) 497-7901.)
