Chapter 2. Installing and removing a SAN768B-2
The SAN768B-2 is only available for installation in the IBM TotalStorage 2109 SAN
Switch Cabinet C36. This SAN768B-2 is to be installed and serviced only by
qualified IBM service representatives. The SAN768B-2 can be ordered pre-installed
in the cabinet, or the SAN768B-2 can be added to an existing C36 cabinet. The
cabinet is designed to support a total of two SAN256Bs or SAN768B-2s. The
SAN384B chassis can also be installed in the C36 cabinet.
Attention:
The SAN768B-2 is only available for installation in the IBM
TotalStorage 2109 SAN Switch Cabinet C36. The SAN768B-2 can be pre-installed in
the cabinet, or it can be added to an existing IBM C36 cabinet. For installation into
an existing C36 cabinet, a special bridge tool ships with the SAN768B-2 which is
designed to attach to the IBM C36 cabinet. This bridge tool supports the weight of
the director as it is moved into the cabinet. This tool may not attach to non-IBM
cabinets. There is a risk of personal injury or machine damage during installation
into any cabinet other than the approved IBM cabinets .
This chapter describes how to install the SAN768B-2 into a C36 cabinet, and how
to remove the SAN768B-2 from the cabinet in the event you need to move or
replace the SAN768B-2. One SAN768B-2 is installed in the cabinet at the factory. If
the SAN768B-2 is already installed in the cabinet, continue on to Chapter 3,
“Starting and configuring the SAN768B-2,” on page 31.
Note: Some illustrations in this chapter display different models of IBM SAN
directors. Details, such as the cable management comb and blades may
differ, but the procedures remain the same for installing the SAN768B-2.
Attention: Refer to “Safety and environmental notices” on page xiii for general
safety instructions, and “Rack safety” on page xx before performing any
installation or service procedures.
