Chapter 5 Installing the Level 3R Storage System
Make a direct connection between the serial ports of redundant server pairs.
Connect server 1A to server 1B, and connect server 2A to server 2B.
Take care to use the proper serial cable to interconnect redundant K2 Media
Servers that take the role of file system/database servers. This cable supports the
heartbeat mechanism whereby the servers monitor each other’s health. It is a 9
pin serial cable, but it is not a standard RS-232 null modem cable. The heartbeat
cable is supplied with your system (Grass Valley part number 174-8137-00) and
has a pin configuration as follows:
1 – 4
2 – 3
3 – 2
4 – 1&6
5 – 5
6 – 4
7 – 8
8 – 7
9 – No Connect
• Assign a control network IP address to GigE port 1. Use standard Windows
procedures. Refer to
“Networking tips” on page 56
.
• Change the hostname. Use standard Windows procedures.
• Configure SNMP properties so the trap destination points to the NetCentral server
PC. Use standard Windows procedures. If you are not using the SNMP community
name “public”, configure the community name and set permissions to RW. Also
make sure that the Authentication trap is enabled.

Setting up the L3R RAID chassis
Do the following to prepare the L3R RAID storage devices:
• Install the chassis in its permanent location. Refer to the L3R RAID Instruction
Manual for rack mount instructions.
•
“Assign Fibre Channel address ID” on page 189
.
•
“Connect the L3R RAID chassis” on page 189
•
“Assign chassis address on Expansion chassis” on page 191
•
“Power on the L3R RAID chassis” on page 193
In addition, you will configure network settings, SNMP settings, and bind LUNs.
These tasks are part of the K2 System Configuration application and Storage Utility
procedures later in this chapter. The process of binding LUNs can take a significant
amount of time—as much as eight hours—so you might want to put priority on the
tasks necessary to start the LUN binding process, then catch up with other tasks while
the LUNs are binding.
