Turning On the System
To turn on the system:
1. Turn on the DXi4700 system components in the following order:
a. Turn on both power switches on the back of each Expansion module (see
). Wait
30 seconds for the Expansion modules to initialize. Verify on the front panel that the modules have
power and there were no hard drive failures (Drive status indicator on hard drive blinks amber four
times per second).

b. Press the power button on the front of the Node (see
). Wait for the system to boot
before continuing with the procedure. (This can take up to 30 minutes.)
Note:
The system may reboot one or more times depending on the components that were
installed. If all components are properly installed and cabled, the LEDs on all hard drives in the
Node and the Expansion modules will be lit. (The top LED will be solid and the bottom LED
will blink.)
