If necessary, install the Fibre Channel (FC) switch for the storage array (if the switch is not
already installed).

For the procedure about how to install an FC switch, see the documentation that shipped with
your FC switch hardware.

Connect the nodes to the storage array.

■

SAN Configuration — Connect the FC switches to the storage array

■

Direct-Attached Configuration — Connect each node directly to the storage array

section.

Hook up the cards for the storage array.

For instructions, see your storage array documentation.

Power on the storage array and the nodes.

For instructions, see your storage array documentation.

Configure the storage array, if needed.

For instructions, see

“Configuring Storage Arrays” on page 18

and consult your storage array

documentation.
