Installation
Powering on the DC Director
To power on the DC Director:
CAUTION:
Use the supplied power cords. Ensure the facility power receptacle is the correct type, supplies
the required voltage, and is properly grounded.
1.
Connect the AC power cords to the power supply assemblies. One to four power cords are required
depending on electrical service.
2.
Connect the power cords to a power source with voltage of 200 to 240 VAC, 47 to 63 Hz (normally
two power cords) or to a power source with voltage of 110 to 120 VAC, 47 to 63 Hz (two to four power
cords).
TIP:
Use of the high-voltage line (200 to 240 VAC) is highly recommended due to better
power-conversion efficiency
.
3.
Turn the AC power switches on the power supplies to
ON
(I). The AC power switches light green when
switched on and power is supplied.
4.
The DC Director performs a Power-on Self-Test (POST) each time it is powered on. POST takes
approximately 10 minutes and is complete when indicator light activity indicates the operational state.
For information about LED patterns, see ”
Monitor system components
” on page 47.
You can bypass POST by using the
fastBoot
command. You can also disable POST for successive
reboots on the DC Director using the
diagDisablePost
command.
NOTE:
To prevent a potential IP address conflict, do not connect the DC Director to the network until the IP
addresses are configured (see ”
Log In and Configuration
” on page 21)
.
Port numbering
The DC Director uses the following port numbering method (see ”
Port numbering templates
” on page 133).
IMPORTANT:
Slots are numbered 1 through 12, from left to right when facing the port side of the DC
Director. Control Processor blades (CP8) can be installed only in slots 6 and 7. Core switch blades (CR8)
can be installed only in slots 5 and 8.
•
FC8-16 port blade—ports are numbered from 0 through 15 from bottom to top.
•
FC8-32 port blade—ports are numbered from 0 through 15 from bottom to top on the left set of ports
and 16 through 31 from bottom to top on the right set of ports.
•
FC8-48 port blade—ports are numbered from 0 through 23 from bottom to top on the left set of ports
and 24 through 47 from bottom to top on the right set of ports.
•
FC10-6 port blade—ports are numbered from 0 through 5 from bottom to top.
•
FR4-18i blade—the sixteen physical FC ports on this blade are numbered 0 through 15 from bottom to
top. The two GbE ports are numbered from the bottom as Ge0 and Ge1. These ports, when fully
configured, enable sixteen VE_Ports or VEX _Ports and appear in the
switchShow
command as ports
16 through 31.
