Sun RSM Array 2000 Controller Module Installation Guide • October 1997
Completing the Installation
This procedure explains how to turn on the power and check the unit, and provides
a brief overview of configuration tasks you may need to perform.
The controller module has LEDs that indicate the status of both the overall controller
module and the individual components within the controller module. Check all the
LEDs on the controller module (front and back) when you turn on the power to
make sure there are no problems. The procedure beginning on this page explains
how to check the LEDS.
Once you have finished installing the controller module hardware, make sure that
the physical drives are ready to store data. To do this, you might need to configure
or re-define the overall organization of the physical and logical space on the drives
using RAID Manager. Whether you configure the system depends on several factors,
such as:
■
How many drive trays and drives are connected to the controller module
■
How and where the controller module is connected to the SCSI bus
■
Whether you want to use the factory default configuration settings (number of
logical units, RAID level, hot spare drives, and so on)
See “To Configure the System” on page 26 for more information regarding system
configuration considerations.

To Power On the System
■
Tools: None
■
Equipment: None
1. Turn both power switches on the back of the controller module to the On position
(
FIGURE 1-19
).
2. Make sure the power switches on the drive trays are in the On position.
3. Power on the expansion cabinet.
Refer to your expansion cabinet documentation for instructions.
4. Check the LEDs on the front and back of the controller module and the drive trays
for faults (
FIGURE 1-20
and
FIGURE 1-21
).
Under normal startup conditions, the green Power LEDs will be lit and the amber
Fault LEDs will be off. If an amber Fault LED comes on, refer to the troubleshooting
section of the Sun RSM Array 2000 System Manual for instructions.
