HP EVA Array iSCSI Connectivity Option - Manual (Page 44)

c. Place the nut plate outside the right-hand slide bracket with the dimpled threaded holes
pointing outboard.
d. Place two screws (10-32 Pan 0.625 XRCS) through the two holes at the back of the C-Shelf,
through the slide plate slots, and loosely into the front two threaded holes of the nut plate.
e. Repeat with the opposite hand slide bracket.
2. Install the C-Shelf assembly into the rack.
a. Locate a clear 1U area space within the rack.
NOTE:
The 1U space in a rack includes three rail mounting holes; these rack holes, however, are not
evenly spaced. For best installation the C-Shelf can be centered in a 1U space. Locate the
center, find a hole that is 5/8" on center from the holes immediately above and below. This is
the center of a 1U mounting position. The holes, two above and two below this center, are only
1/2" on center from their adjacent holes.
b. At the front of the rack, in the center mounting holes, install the KEPs 10–32 and 0.375
AF–CSZ EXT nuts.
c. Carefully supporting the C-Shelf assembly, loosely thread the knurled thumbscrews through
the rack into the two nuts just installed.
d. Go to the back of the rack and position a slide bracket next to the corresponding holes at
the back of the rack. Slide the bracket to the rear until the threaded screw hole tabs are
flush with the inside of the rack rail.
e. Insert two 10-32 Pan 0.325 XRCS screws through the rack rail into the threaded screw hole
tab and tighten loosely.
f. Repeat step e on the other side of the C-Shelf assembly.
g. Tighten all four 10-32 Pan 0.325 XRCS screws at the rear of the C-Shelf assembly.
h. Tighten the front two knurled thumbscrews.
i. Tighten the two 10-32 Pan 0.625 XRCS screws at each side of the back of the C-Shelf
assembly.
3. Install the mpx100/100b into one of the two available positions in the C-Shelf:
a. Slide the mpx100/100b in (from the front of the equipment rack).
b. Make sure that the four tabs (two at the front and two at the rear) catch, to ensure that the
mpx100.100b is firmly seated in the C-Shelf assembly. To ensure that all four tabs engage,
hold both the C-Shelf assembly and the mpx100/100b as you slide it in the last inch.
c. Once the rear of the mpx100/100b is flush with the front of the C-Shelf assembly and all
four clips are engaged, snap the Bezel on the front.
Connecting the mpx100/100b to an IP switch
To connect the mpx100/100b to an IP switch:
1. Connect one end of a standard Cat 5e or Cat 6 network cable to the IP network management
port on the mpx100/100b ( Figure 1 on page 22). Connect the other end to an IP switch in a
network that is accessible from the management server running HP Command View EVA.
2. Connect one end of another Cat 5e or Cat 6 network cable to the GE1 port on the
mpx100/100b. Connect the other end to an IP switch in the IP network that is accessible
from the servers running an iSCSI Initiator.
3. Continue with “ Start the mpx100/100b ” on page 45.
NOTE:
The management and GE port cables can be connected to the same IP network provided the subnet
settings are configured to allow both Management and iSCSI communications.
