About the NetBackup 5330 Appliance Primary Storage Shelf and Expansion Storage Shelf rear panels
The NetBackup 5330 Appliance Primary Storage Shelf and the Expansion Storage Shelf includes two power cords that should be plugged into the appropriate external power source within a rack. When connecting power cables, wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap to prevent equipment damage.
The rear panel of both disk systems contains three types of canisters:
RAID or Expansion canisters
AC power canisters (220VAC)
Fan canisters
The Primary Storage Shelf has two RAID canisters, which are inserted in the central slots of the back panel. The power supplies are inserted at the top and bottom of the back panel, and the fans are on either side. The RAID canisters are attached to the NetBackup 5330 Appliance with fiber optic cables. The device must have at least one functioning RAID canister, one functioning power supply, and one functioning fan.
The following figure shows the Primary Storage Shelf rear panel.
Note:
Latches that let you remove the canisters are circled in red.

Each RAID canister has a set of LEDs which are defined in the following figure. The table describes the LEDs functions and colors. The LEDs labeled '1' track the data rate of the link. If both are off, the link is inactive, and if both are on, the data rate is 8 Gb per second. If only one LED is on, the LED on the left indicates a 2 Gb/s data rate, and the one on the right indicates a 4 Gb/s data rate. The canister also displays the ID of the Primary Storage Shelf, which is set to '99'.
Table: RAID canister LEDs
Number | Description | Color |
|---|---|---|
1 | Data link activity | Green |
2 | SAS expansion fault | Amber |
3 | SAS expansion active | Green |
4 | Battery service action required | Amber |
5 | Battery charging | Green |
6 | RAID service system action allowed | Blue |
7 | RAID service system action required | Amber |
8 | Cache active | Green |
9 | Seven-segment display LEDs for system ID | Displays '99' |
The Expansion Storage Shelf also contains two fans, on either side, and two power supplies, in the top and the bottom slots. The power supplies should be connected to the Power Distribution Units (PDU), which must be connected to an external 240V power supply. The two center slots contain expansion canisters, one of which must always function. The Expansion Storage Shelf must be attached to a Primary Storage Shelf by SAS cables, plugged into the expansion canisters.
The following diagram shows the LEDs in the Expansion Storage Shelf canister, along with the SAS ports. It also gives the location of the tray ID that is displayed when the system is initialized. The Primary Storage Shelf recognizes the Expansion Storage Shelf where the ID is set to 00.

Number | Description | LED Display |
|---|---|---|
1 | SAS port | n/a |
2 | Link fault LED | Amber |
3 | Data Link LED | Green |
4 | SAS port | n/a |
5 | Link fault LED | Amber |
6 | Data Link LED | Green |
7 | SAS port | n/a |
8 | Service action allowed LED | Blue |
9 | Service action required LED | Amber |
10 | Power LED | Green |
11 | Seven-segment display LEDs for system ID | 00 |
As seen in both diagrams, the seven-segment display LEDs shows the storage system ID, once the devices have been turned on and are recognized. The following diagram shows the location of these displays, as seen on the rear panel of the Primary Storage Shelf, which are circled in red.
IMPORTANT: Notice that both systems have identical power supply canisters and fan canisters. However, the Primary Storage Shelf contains RAID controller canisters. The Extension Storage Shelf contains expansion canisters instead of RAID canisters. The following figure provides a comparison of the two canister types.
