Installation and Connection Procedures

This chapter describes how to install and connect the disk array unit.

Choose an appropriate installation site for the disk array unit meeting the
recommendations described in the preface, at the beginning of this guide.

Installation Flow

Check the components contained in the package.

Check the components included in the package following the guidelines provided
in the section

Checking the Package Contents

. If any component is missing,

contact your sales agent.

Install the disk array unit in an appropriate installation site.

Follow the instructions provided in the next section to mount the unit into a rack
cabinet.

Connect the host bus adapter.

Connect the host bus adapter according to the manual provided with the host
system or host bus adapter. Then, install the proper driver.

Connect the FC cable.

Use a cable that is compatible with the disk array unit. Insert the connector until
the latch emits a click. Do not bend the cable forcibly.

Connect the power cable.

Always use a proper power cable compatible with the disk array unit. Check that
the power cable is in good condition.

Set parameters.

To set parameters including RAID level and disk assignment, use NEC Storage
Manager or contact your service representative. Refer to the manuals included on
the documentation and drivers CD for more information on parameter settings.
