Front panel components
HPE MSA 1060/2060/2062 Storage enclosures support 2U12 and 2U24 enclosure configurations as specified in the Note
below. The 2U12 supports 12 LFF 3.5" disks and the 2U24 supports 24 SFF 2.5" disks. The disk modules are accessed from
the enclosure front panel. See also the topics about disk modules:

NOTE Supported storage enclosure configurations:
l
MSA 2060/2062 supports 2U24 and 2U12 chassis as controller enclosures and disk enclosures.
l
MSA 2062 uses two SSD drives pre-installed in drive slots 1 and 2.
l
MSA 1060 supports the 2U24 chassis as a controller enclosure or disk enclosure, while supporting the 2U12 chassis as
a disk enclosure only.
l
MSA 1060/2060/2062 controller enclosures support only same generation MSA 12Gb disk enclosures that are
described in this guide. Earlier MSA 6Gb LFF and SFF disk enclosures are incompatible.
The enclosure front panel provides a passive, non-replaceable status panel mounted on the left ear flange. This panel
provides enclosure status LEDs, and it is protected by a cover.
Figure 1 Bezel used with MSA 1060/2060/2062 Storage enclosures: front panel
A flexible cable connects the panel to the midplane. The panel provides the functions described in the 24-drive and 12-
drive front panel illustrations and their tables. See also the topic about front panel LEDs in
. Hubcaps protect enclosure ears. When the optional enclosure bezel is attached to the hubcaps as shown, the
disks are hidden from view.
Attach the enclosure bezel
A generic version of the MSA enclosure bezel assembly is shown above. The geometry applies to all product models.
Labels and icons may vary slightly between product models. Ear circuitry is protected by a plastic ear cover attached to
the ear flange. Plastic hubcaps snap onto the left and right ear covers. The hubcap for the left ear provides icons
identifying enclosure status LEDs. The hubcap for the right ear includes a logo and product model on the front face.
The right hubcap used on 12-drive enclosures also includes a disk slot index diagram on its left face. The bezel
component snaps into the left and right hubcaps.
You can attach or remove the optional enclosure bezel. Note that the left end of the bezel includes a release latch.
1. Verify that the left and right hubcaps are properly fitted over their ear covers.
2. Hook the right end of the bezel into the right hubcap.
3. Insert the left end of the bezel into the securing slot until the release latch snaps into place.
