PFR500/E power-up and initialization
This section gives information about connecting power and powering-on the
PFR500/E system.
Connecting electrical cables
For each chassis, there are two electrical cables which should be connected to separate
outside power sources, as shown.
WARNING: Make sure the power cords meet local safety and electrical
standards.
CAUTION: The PFR500/E system must be electrically grounded.
Operating the system without proper grounding can damage disk drives. If
the outlet you use is not grounded, make sure that a licensed electrician
replaces it and installs a grounding conductor.
Powering-up the PFR500/E system
1. Power-up the PFR 500E Expansion chassis prior to, or at the same time as the
PFR500 Controller chassis.
NOTE: You must always power-up the PFR500E Expansion chassis prior to, or at
the same time as the PFR 500 RAID Controller chassis. Failure to do so may
prevent some LUNs in the expansion chassis from being recognized.
2. Wait for RAID storage initialization, as follows:
- Rear panel 7-segment LED displays the chassis address, and Host RDY LED is
ON— approximately 2 minutes.
- Wait until all disk access LEDs are steady green— approximately 3 minutes.
- Refer to sections in Chapter 3, “Servicing the PFR500/E” for information on
interpreting status LED behavior.
NOTE: Refer to the Profile XP System Guide or Media Area Network Instruction
Manual for complete system power-up procedures.
