3-1 Cabling and Configuration Chapter 3: Cabling and Configuration This Chapter describes how to configure and set up the RAIDStation7 Ultra160 SCSI St orag e Array and how to connect it to a host system.Ultra160. CAUTION: S tatic electr ic ity can cau se damage to both the host system and the RAIDS tation7 Ultra160 SCSI S torage Array .
3-2 Cabling and Configuration Configuration Rules W ARNING: These rules must be observed prior to c onfiguring the RAIDS tation7 Ultra160 SCSI S torage Array . When Configuring a Single Shel f 1. A single shelf must be set to “ First ” shelf (see page 3-3).
3-3 Cabling and Configuration Setting First/Second Shelf This switch enables a shelf to be set as the “ First ” or “ Second ” shelf. In Single shelf configurations this switch should alway s be set at First. In Dual shelf (daisy- chained) configurations, one shelf must be set as First and the second shelf must be set as Second.
3-4 Cabling and Configuration Setting Dual VEM Enable/Disable This switch enables Dual VEM to be Enabled or Disabled for a shelf. In a single shelf configuration the Dual VEM Enable/Disable switch must be set to Disabled. In a dual shelf (daisy-chained) configuration the Dual VEM Enable/Disable switch must be set to Ena b le d.
3-5 Cabling and Configuration SCSI ID Selection This section describes the SCSI ID mappings used in the RAIDS tation7 Ultra16 0 SCSI St orag e Array . The SCSI ID mapping and the System Configuration ID mapping are detailed. SCSI ID Mapping The SCSI ID ’ s are set automatically via the combination of configuration switch settings.
3-6 Cabling and Configuration System Configuration ID Mapping The following table sets out the ID mapping for the various configurations. For the purpose of this table each configuration will be represented by the number given to it on the first page of this chapter .
3-7 Cabling and Configuration Connecting to a Host System This section describes the procedure for connecting the RAIDStation7 Ultra160 SCSI St orag e Array to a single or dual host. NOTE: This section describes the connectors on the RAIDS tation7 Ultra160 SCSI S torage Array , it does not d escribe the connector s on the host.
3-8 Cabling and Configuration Dual Shelf, Single Host In this configuration two RAIDS tation7 Ultra160 SCSI S torage Array shelves are daisy chained together and connected to a single host system.
3-9 Cabling and Configuration Dual Host Configurations Both the single shelf and dual shelf configurations described may be connected to dual host systems.
3-10 Cabling and Configuration Connecti ng a Power Sour ce This disk shelf is available in an AC power source configuration. The following sections describe how to connect the power source to the disk shelf. Connecting an AC Power Source Figur e 3-6. Location of AC power receptacle 1.
4-1 Environmental Monitoring Chapter 4: Envir onmental Monitoring This Chapter deals with the various methods used to monitor the RAIDStation7 Ultra160 SCSI Storage Ar ray . There are two methods used: • V ersatile En vironmental Monitor (VEM) - The VEM is a card that plugs into the backplan e of the St orage Array .
4-2 Environmental Monitoring V ersatile Environmental Monitor (VEM) The VEM is a Storage Array environmental monitoring device. It sits on the backplane of the RAIDS tatio n7 Ultra160 SCSI S torage Array .
4-3 Environmental Monitoring In-Band Reporting The VEM communicates with the host system usin g in-band reporting and sup- ports both SAF-TE and SES protocols. The VEM card sits on the SCSI bus and communic ates direct ly to the host(s). The VEM card has it ’ s own SCSI ID (see below) and is seen as a separate tar get by the host(s).
4-4 Environmental Monitoring Advanced Cooli ng Module Failur e LED Each ACM has a fa ult LED built into it (see Figure 4-2). If an ACM fails, its ACM Failure LED will turn on, and the alarm buzzer on the VEM card will sound. The alarm buzzer may be silenced by pressing the alarm silence button.
4-5 Environmental Monitoring Disk Drive Carrier LEDs Each disk drive carrier in a disk shelf has two LED indicators on the front (see Figure 4-3). These LED indicators are driven by the VEM. Figur e 4-3. LEDs On Disk Drive Carrier The disk drive LEDs function as follows: • The Green LED on the top is the device activity indicator .
4-6 Environmental Monitoring T able 4-1 Device carr ier LED definitio ns Device fault LED (Red-Bottom) Device activi ty LED (Green-T op ) Meaning Off On Disk operates normally Off Flashing Disk operates normally Off Off Disk is inactive and there is no fault On On Fault status.
4-7 Environmental Monitoring Power Supply Carrier LEDs The power suppl y carri er ha s tw o LED indicators (see Figure 4-4). Thes e LED indicators are driven by the VEM. Figur e 4-4. LEDs On Power Supply Carrier These power supply status LEDs function as follows: • The green LED on the top is the power supply status indicator .
