Chapter 4. Installing the TS7650G hardware
This chapter provides instructions for installing the TS7650G servers into the
recommended, customer-supplied 36u frame, and making all required power and
cable connections from the server to the hardware components recommended
under IBM best practices. To simplify installation and maintenance, it is
recommended that the components included in the purchase of the TS7650G,
including the TSSC and TSSC Ethernet switch, occupy one frame (the server
frame), while the disk components occupy a second frame (the disk storage frame).
Attention:
Any unused EIA units in the frame should be baffled, in order to
avoid recirculating air and overheating the system.
Read this first
Read the notes below carefully. They provide important details regarding
installation of the gateway hardware components.
Important:
v
This document references IBM 4.8 TB Fibre Channel Disk Controllers and IBM
7.2 TB Fibre Channel Disk Expansion Units in many of the hardware installation
figures, examples, and procedures.
In addition to the IBM DS4700 disk controller, the TS7650G also supports the
DS5000 disk controller, the DS8000 disk controller and the XIV disk controller, as
well as various non-IBM storage solutions. If the customer has elected to use
disk storage components other than the IBM disk controllers mentioned above,
the figures, examples, and procedures in this document will not apply to the
configuration on which you are working. Therefore, it is suggested that you
determine the make and model of the disk storage components in use and, if
necessary, obtain the related product documentation before you begin
installation of the gateway.
v
The RAS code no longer sends call home packages for problems with any of the
disk storage products attached to the gateway including DS4700. DS5000,
DS8000 and XIV.
v
The customer is responsible for ensuring that all hardware components other
than those included in the purchase of the TS7650G and the TSSC and the TSSC
Ethernet switch, are installed and configured before TS7650G installation begins.
v
A USB keyboard and graphics-capable monitor are required to complete the
installation. These items are not provided in the TS7650G ship group; they must
be provided by the customer. The recommended screen resolution for the
ProtecTIER GUI is 1280 x 1024.
v
Be sure to complete the installation of the TS7650G before installing any
miscellaneous equipment specification (MES) features. The installation
instructions for an MES feature assume that you are adding the feature to an
installed TS7650G.
