PA-7000 Series Firewall Installation
STEP 6 |
After you install each AMC, push the handle in to lock the AMC in place. For more
information on how to install or remove AMCs, see
Replace a PA-7000 Series Firewall LPC
.
After you power on the chassis for the first time, the firewall will format the drives
and configure them in two RAID 1 configurations. The first two drives on the left (A1
and A2) are configured in a RAID 1 pair and the second two drives (B1 and B2) on
the right are configured in a second RAID 1 pair. If the AMCs contain 1TB drives the
total log storage capacity is 2TBs; if the AMCs contain 2TB drives the total capacity is
4TBs.The initial formating and RAID configuration will take approximately 3 minutes.
