1.1 Checking the Equipment You’ll Need

The list below consists of all the equipment you’ll need to set up the ExaSAN Compact Solution.

Note that while items 1 through 7 are Accusys-supplied equipment, they are not necessarily part of the ExaSAN
switch package. Refer to Packing List for a complete list of accessories which are included in your SW04 package.
With the help of your local ExaSAN distributor, any Accusys-supplied equipment which is not in the switch package
should have been ordered and delivered separately.

Also note that while items 8 through 11 are necessary for the system, they are not Accusys-supplied equipment and
therefore would not have been ordered from Accusys. Again with the help of your local ExaSAN distributor, your
other equipment should have been acquired from other vendors.

Verify that you have all of the system components before commencing hardware installation.
1. ExaSAN PCIe RAID disk system A08S-PS, one unit
2. ExaSAN PCIe Switch SW04, one unit
3. ExaSAN PCIe Switch Host Bus Adapters, one for each supported workgroup host system
4. QSFP PCIe copper or optical cables for connecting the switch to the workgroup host systems, one for each host

system

5. External PCIe x4 cable for connecting the switch to the RAID disk system, one unit
6. Power cords, one for the RAID system and another for the switch
7. CAT-5 cable for the LAN port of the switch, one unit
