−
On InterServe 6xx systems, the primary RAID controller is installed in PCI slot 3.
Install additional (secondary) controllers in PCI slots 2, 1, and 6 (in that order). If
PCI slot 6 is not available, use PCI slot 5.
−
For Intergraph deskside systems with internal RAID, the internal RAID subsystem
already contains the boot disk drives. The primary RAID controller connects to the
internal RAID subsystem.
−
For Intergraph deskside systems with an internal hard disk drive, the internal hard
disk drive is the boot disk drive and does not require connection to a primary RAID
controller. Any external disk arrays and associated RAID controllers are secondary.
2. For stacked cabinets, route the RAID SCSI cables and power cables through the cable
guides on the back of each cabinet.
Installing the RAID Disk Drives
The InterRAID-12 cabinet contains up to twelve 1.0-inch high, 3.5-inch form factor RAID
disk drives. Supported capacities include 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB, and higher as the disk drives
become available. Contact an Intergraph sales representative for drive availability. The left-
hand side of the disk drive label identifies the disk drive size.
NOTE Intergraph attaches a SCSI ID number to the disk drive label to identify each of the boot disk
drives. All other disk drives are for data storage and do not specify a SCSI ID number.
CAUTION Ensure you install the boot disk drives into the InterRAID-12 cabinet that connects to the
primary RAID controller board.
To install the RAID disk drives:
1. Unlock the front panel door using the key for the InterRAID-12 cabinet.
2. Remove the RAID disk drives from the carton labeled, “This box contains disk drives
loaded with operating system software ...” The first three drives (ID 0, 1, 2) contain the
operating system.
The following table shows the order in which to install the boot disk drives:
