Explanations and procedures
The following information might or might not apply to your particular custom system. Make sure you understand
the application of the information to your own custom system.
General guidelines
The following guidelines apply to all systems:
•
Update to version 3.0.1.21 or higher before attempting to configure a custom system.
•
For redundant systems, if there is only one RAID storage device, you can mix RAID 1 (for file
system metadata) and RAID 5 or RAID 6 (for media storage) in the same chassis. However, if
there are two or more RAID storage devices, you must reserve one chassis for RAID 1, with the
remaining chassis used for RAID 5 or RAID 6.
•
When you change the RTIOS, you must reboot the system for it to take effect.
•
For a Fibre Channel SAN, the 8 Gig controller must be set to Fabric.
•
When connecting iNavi make sure the browser has scripting turned on.
K2 RAID Fibre Channel port redundant configuration
In addition to the Level 3 non-redundant and Level 3 redundant configurations, you can also cable
and use K2 RAID Fibre Channel ports for Fibre Channel port redundancy, as explained in this
section.
For clarity, Level 3 non-redundant and Level 3 redundant configurations are included in the following
illustrations:
L3 non-redundant
Two K2 Servers connect to one RAID controller.
L3 redundant
Four K2 Servers connect to two RAID controllers. Servers 1A and 1B are redundant. Servers 2A
and 2B are redundant.
