Chapter 2. Installing the DCS3860
This section provides information that you need to prepare the storage enclosure
for installation into a rack cabinet.
“Installation overview” provides an overview of the storage enclosure installation
process. Read this overview before you begin the installation.
Installation overview
Attention:
Refer to “Safety” on page ix for general safety instructions and
Chapter 9, “Specifications for non-IBM rack installation,” on page 149 before
performing any installation or service procedures.
CAUTION:
1.
The weight of this unit in the drive-ready state (without drive modules
installed) is 56.7 kg (125 lb). Fully configured (with 60 drive modules
installed) the unit weighs 102.1 kg (225 lb). It takes three people to push the
enclosure out of the custom-designed package. You can also use a lift tool.
2.
A fully populated DCS3860 weighs approximately 102.1 kg (225 lb). Before
you install it, verify that the additional weight of the chassis does not exceed
the rack’s weight limit or unbalance the rack cabinet. When you calculate the
additional weight, include the weights of all components that can potentially
be added, to avoid overloading in the future.
Installation sequence
1.
Prepare the installation site and the rack cabinet.
2.
Unpack the DCS3860 and other hardware from the shipping box. See
“Preparing for installation” on page 26.
Attention:
a.
Because of the size and weight of the storage enclosure as shipped, you
require three people to push the enclosure out of its custom-designed
package. You can also use a lift tool and push the enclosure onto the lift
tool.
b.
Before you move or relocate a rack that contains DCS3860 storage
enclosures, see “Relocating the DCS3860” on page 52 for additional
information.
3.
Install the support rails in the rack. See “Installing the support rails” on page
30.
4.
Install the DCS3860 storage enclosure in the rack. See “Installing the DCS3860
into the rack cabinet using a lift tool” on page 35 if you have ordered a lift
tool. See “Installing the DCS3860 into the rack cabinet without using a lift
tool” on page 38 if you do not have a lift tool.
5.
Install disk drives in the DCS3860 storage enclosure. See “Installing the
DDMs” on page 39.
6.
If there are other DCS3860 storage enclosures to be installed in the same rack,
repeat step 3 to step 5 for the other DCS3860 units.
