Veritas™ 5250 Appliance Hardware Installation Guide

To turn on the S Series storage shelves

1. Start with the storage shelf that is farthest from the appliance.
2. Flip on the power switches on each power supply on the rear of the shelf.
   
3. Verify that the power LED on each power module is green.
   

   The LEDs are explained in the following table.

   LED	Description
   	Green = power module ok
   	Amber = AC power fault
   	Amber = Fan fault
   	Amber = DC fault

   The following table provides LED status details about the fans, AC and DC power, and the power cooling modules (PCMs).

   Status	PCM Ok (Green)	Fan fault (Amber)	AC power fault (Amber)	DC power fault (Amber)
   No AC power in either PCM	Off	Off	Off	Off
   No AC power in a specific PCM	Off	Off	On	On
   AC power present in a PCM	On	Off	Off	Off
   PCM fan out of tolerance	On	Off	Off	On
   PCM fault (over temp., over voltage, over current)	Off	On	On	On
   PCM fan has failed	Off	On	On	On
   Standby mode	Flashing	Off	Off	Off
   PCM firmware download	Off	Flashing	Flashing	Flashing

4. Locate the LEDs on each I/O module canister.
   

   LED indications are as follows.

   • The LED in the red area with the white X-mark indicates an I/O module canister fault when the LED is amber.

   • The LED in the ID area is blue when each module is identified.

   • The LED in the green area with a white checkmark is green when functions are normal.

5. Locate the SAS port LEDs.
   

   Note:

   The illustration shows the LEDs for port B in the top I/O module. The LEDs for all six ports are the same.

   The Fault LED is farthest from each SAS port.

   The Activity LED is closest to each SAS port.

   The following table describes the SAS port LEDs. The combination of both LEDs provides the status.

   Status	Activity (green) LED	Fault (amber) LED
   No cable present	Off	Off
   Cable present, no activity	On	Off
   Cable present, all links active	Blinking if one or more disk drives are active.	Off
   Critical fault	Off	On
   Non-critical fault	Blinking if one or more disk drives are active.	Blinking at a rate of one second on, and one second off.

6. Move to the front of the storage shelf.
   

   • Verify that the Power on/standby LED is green.

   • If the Power LED or the other two LEDs are amber, escalate the issue.

   • The input switch is used to set the Unit identification (ID). The display is a seven-segment display. You can reset the ID number. The values "01" to "99" are valid. The value "00" is reserved.

     "00" is also the default value.

     • Press the input switch and hold it down for five seconds.

       The switch enters a programming mode. The digit on the left side of the display begins to flash first. The flashes appear on for 0.5 seconds and off for 0.5 seconds.

     • Press the input switch once to increment the number by one digit.

     • When your first required number is reached press the switch for five seconds.

       The first number is now locked.

     • Set the second number in the same manner that you set the first number.

       If you do not want to set a second number press and hold the input switch for five seconds.

       The number "0" displays.

7. Locate the LEDs on each disk drive carrier.
   

   The following table describes the disk drive carrier LEDs. The combination of both LEDs provides the status.

   Status	Activity (green) LED	Fault (amber) LED
   No disk drive installed.	Off	Off
   Drives are installed, turned on, and operational.	Blinks during I/O activity and during startup.	Off
   Device identity.	On	Blinks at a rate of one second on and one second off.
   Drive slot fault.	Off	On
   Drive fault. Power control circuit fault.	On	On
   Possible drive fault.	On	Blinks at a rate of one second on and one second off.

8. Repeat these steps for each storage shelf. Let each shelf initialize before you turn on the next shelf. Initialization should take 2 minutes to 3 minutes.
9. When all of the storage shelves are operational, turn on the appliance.

To power on the D Series storage shelves

1. Start with the storage shelf that is farthest from the appliance.

   Note:

   If the appliance has more than one storage shelf, do not turn on all the storage shelf at once. Allow each storage shelf a few minutes to initialized before turning on the next storage shelf.

2. Switch on the power switches on each power supply on the rear of the storage shelf.
   
3. Verify that the Power LEDs are on for each power supply.
   
4. Locate the LEDs on each I/O module. Check that the Health Status indicator and SAS Port indicator for each connected SAS cable are lit.
   
5. Move to the front of the storage shelf.
6. Verify that the Power LED is green.
   
7. Check the Drive Status LED is green on all the drives.
   
8. Repeat these steps for each storage shelf. Let each shelf initialize before you turn on the next shelf. Initialization should take 2 minutes to 3 minutes.

To turn on the appliance

1. Verify that all connected storage shelves function correctly. Use the LED information in the procedure that explains how to turn on the storage shelves.
2. On the front, right, side of the appliance press the Power button.
   
3. Verify that the bottom LED in all 12 disk drive slots are green.
   

   The following table provides details of the appliance disk drive LEDs.

   LED	States	Description
   1-Status LED, Top	Off Solid amber Blinking amber	No disk fault Disk fault A RAID rebuild is in progress
   2-Activity LED, Bottom	Off Solid green Blinking green Blinks green occasionally	Power is on and the disk has spun down Power is on but there is no disk activity Power is on and the disk is spinning up Commands are processing

4. On the bottom, left, rear of the appliance verify that the LED on each power supply is green.
   
5. Proceed to the next section to configure remote management.
