Installing
the
SAN
Volume
Controller
2145-8G4
hardware
There
are
several
steps
that
you
must
perform
to
prepare
and
then
install
the
SAN
Volume
Controller
hardware.
The
following
topics
describe
the
SAN
Volume
Controller
hardware
installation
tasks
in
the
order
they
should
be
performed.
Note:
If
you
are
adding
a
new
I/O
group
to
an
existing
SAN
Volume
Controller
cluster,
there
is
no
need
to
power
off
the
existing,
operating
cluster
nodes.
1.
Prepare
for
the
SAN
Volume
Controller
hardware
installation
by
confirming
that
you
have
all
the
planning
information
and
parts
that
you
require.
2.
Install
and
verify
the
redundant
ac
power
switch,
if
it
is
to
be
used
and
is
not
already
being
used
for
a
node.
3.
Install
the
UPS.
4.
Install
the
node.
5.
Connect
the
fibre-channel
and
Ethernet
cables
to
the
node.
6.
Connect
the
node
to
the
UPS.
7.
Verify
the
node.
8.
Install
and
verify
the
master
console.
Optionally,
you
can
perform
this
step
first.
After
you
finish
these
steps,
the
hardware
installation
is
complete.
Preparing
for
the
SAN
Volume
Controller
hardware
installation
You
must
perform
the
steps
to
prepare
for
the
installation
of
the
optional
redundant
ac
power
switch,
the
uninterruptible
power
supply
(UPS),
the
master
console,
and
the
SAN
Volume
Controller.
Perform
the
following
steps
to
prepare
for
installation:
1.
Ensure
that
you
have
everything
you
need
for
installation,
including
the
customer-completed
planning
tables
and
charts
that
are
provided
at
http://www.ibm.com/storage/support/2145.
The
IBM
System
Storage
SAN
Volume
Controller:
Planning
Guide
provides
guidelines
for
completing
the
planning
tables
and
charts.
These
tables
include
the
location
of
hardware,
cable
connection,
and
configuration
data
information
that
you
need
to
complete
the
installation
procedures.
If
you
are
connecting
cables
to
switches
that
are
currently
in
use,
confirm
with
the
customer
that
it
is
safe
for
you
to
proceed.
Go
no
further
with
these
instructions
until
you
are
satisfied
that
all
the
information
is
correct
and
valid.
2.
Check
all
the
parts
and
quantities
against
the
parts
that
are
shown
in
to
make
sure
that
everything
has
been
delivered.
If
any
piece
is
missing,
contact
the
appropriate
IBM
representative.
