Chapter 4 – Installation for Direct Attached
Storage
This chapter describes how to install and configure your TX16 SAS Storage system
as direct attached storage for single client system.
Before You Begin
Unpack the TX16 storage unit and make sure you have all the components that
shipped with the system available at the time of installation. If you are missing any
of the components listed above (see page 6 - Hardware Components Kit), do not
attempt installation until contacting your dealer.
Environmental Considerations
The TX16 storage unit should be placed in a location that meets the following
environmental requirements:
Unobstructed airflow
No significant temperature or humidity changes.
Sturdy, level surface or rack unit not subject to vibration.
Placed away from radio frequency emissions, high-traffic, or high-noise areas.
Keep in mind the following electrical requirements:
Make sure your enclosure is placed away from major electrical equipment such as
motors, HVAC equipment, elevators/escalators, etc….
Areas free from Electrostatic discharge (ESD) or buildup.
Electrical Specifications
Avoid using extension cords. Make sure you do not overload circuits. Facilis
recommends the use of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) appropriately sized for
your system configuration. The UPS provides system protection against sudden
power surges or losses that could cause you to lose your work.
