If feature codes 5305, or 5325 are not ordered for Fibre Channel connection, you
must supply your own fiber-optic Fibre Channel cables. Make sure that four
cables per adapter are available.
If feature code AH12 is ordered, and feature codes 5305 and 5325 or ACSS are
not ordered for Ethernet connection, the customer must supply their own OM2
or OM3 fiber-optic cables. Make sure that four cables per node are available.
At least one network adapter feature code AH14 or AH12 is fitted in each
2145-SV1.
Note: Part numbers and feature codes are subject to change between SAN
Volume Controller releases. The numbers listed here might not always reflect
what you receive.
Installing the SAN Volume Controller 2145-SV1
You must complete several tasks to install the SAN Volume Controller 2145-SV1
node.
About this task
Installing a SAN Volume Controller 2145-SV1 node consists of the following tasks:
1. Spitting the support rails, attaching one part to the node and the other to the
rack.
2. Installing the node in the rack, rejoining the support rails.
3. Installing the cable-management arm in the rack cabinet.
Installation guidelines
Before you install the support rails for the 2145-SV1 node, review the following
guidelines.
v Do not install a unit in a rack where the internal-rack ambient temperature
exceeds the maximum manufacturer-recommended ambient temperature for any
of your rack-mounted devices.
v Do not install a unit in a rack where the air flow is compromised. Ensure that
air flow is not blocked or reduced on any side, front, or back of a unit used for
air flow through the unit.
v Ensure that the equipment is connected properly to the supply circuit so that the
circuits do not overload and compromise the supply wiring or overcurrrent
protection.
v Plan the device installation by starting at the bottom of the rack cabinet to
ensure that the rack is stable and cannot tip over.
v Install the heaviest device in the bottom of the rack cabinet.
