Dell EqualLogic FS7610 Installation and Setup Guide Preface

1 Before You Begin

Proper planning and adherence to requirements help ensure a successful installation. Before you begin the

installation, review the steps for getting started and perform all the preliminary tasks.

Introduction to the EqualLogic FS7610

The Dell™ EqualLogic® FS Series NAS appliances add Network Attached Storage (NAS) capability to the

EqualLogic product line to provide a high-performance, scalable unified storage platform. EqualLogic FS Series

appliances are powered by the Dell Fluid File System (FluidFS), Dell’s high-performance, clustered, and

network-accessible file system.

A PS Series group provides iSCSI-accessible block storage. With the latest version of the PS Series firmware

and the addition of a Dell EqualLogic FS7610 NAS appliance, the same PS Series group can provide block

storage and support for Network Attached Storage.

The EqualLogic FS7610 NAS appliance consists of two 10Gb controllers with battery backup, and two

power supplies in one 2U chassis.

FS7610 appliances are available with either SFP+ controllers or 10GBASE-T controllers.

• You cannot use both SFP+ and 10GBASE-T controllers in the same appliance.

• An EqualLogic FS7610 requires a PS Series group running the PS Series firmware version 6.0 or

later. The 10GBASE-T model requires firmware version 7.0 and FluidFS version 3.0 or later. For

information on updating your PS Series group to the latest firmware version, see the Release Notes

and the Updating Storage Array Firmware document on the customer support website.

A NAS cluster can support multiple, scalable NAS containers. In each container, you can create multiple CIFS

shares and NFS exports. Clients with the correct credentials can then access the shares and exports through the

NAS client VIP addresses.

The NAS cluster network configuration requires a client network and a SAN/internal network.

For security reasons, the internal network is usually a private network, and the client network is separate from

the SAN and internal network. See Network Configuration Overview on page 17.

Figure 1 and Table 1 describe the NAS cluster hardware configuration.

Steps for Getting Started
To install the EqualLogic FS7610 hardware and create a NAS cluster, follow these steps:
1.  Make sure you meet the safety, environmental, and other requirements and have all the necessary hardware. 
See Preinstallation Tasks on page 3.
2.  Install the NAS appliance in the  rack. See Hardware Rack Mounting on page 9.
3.  Connect the appliance to power. See Network Cable Connections on page 17. 
4.  Connect the appliance to the networks. See Network Cable Connections on page 17.
5.  Use the Group Manager GUI to discover the controllers and configure a NAS cluster. See NAS Cluster 
Network Requirements and Recommendations on page 24.
6.  Create a NAS container and optionally create a CIFS share or NFS export. See NAS Storage Allocation on 
page 29.
After getting started, see What to Do Next on page 33.
Preinstallation Tasks
Before installing the hardware:
•  Read the installation safety precautions. See Safety Recommendations on page 3.
•  Learn how to protect sensitive hardware. See Hardware Protection on page 4.
•  Make sure the installation meets the environmental requirements. See Environmental Requirements on page 
4.
•  Unpack the shipping box according to the instructions on the setup poster, and make sure the shipping box 
contents are complete. See Shipping Box Contents on page 6.
•  Gather the hardware needed for the installation but not provided in the shipping box. See Required Hardware 
That Is Not Supplied on page 7.
•  Make sure the rack meets the rack requirements. See Rack Requirements on page 7.
•  Gather the tools needed for the installation, if any. See Required Tools on page 8.
Safety Recommendations
Follow these safety recommendations: 
•  Before you install the EqualLogic FS7610 hardware, read and follow the safety instructions packaged with 
your system.
•  Only individuals with rack mounting experience should install EqualLogic FS7610 hardware in a rack.

Dell EqualLogic FS7610 Installation and Setup Guide 1 Before You Begin

• Use care when moving and opening the cartons. Leave the components packaged until you are ready to

install them.

• Place the components in a protected area that has adequate airflow and is free of excessive humidity,

flammable gas, and corrosive substances.

• You need at least two people to install the hardware. Use proper lifting and carrying techniques when

unpacking and moving the components.

• Make sure each FS7610 NAS appliance is fully grounded at all times to prevent damage from electrostatic

discharge.

• When handling the FS7610 NAS appliance, use an electrostatic wrist guard or a similar form of protection.

See Hardware Protection on page 4.

• Hold the appliance level with the rack when you install it.

Hardware Protection

When not installed in a rack, an FS7610 NAS appliance must be in its original packaging or placed on a sturdy

surface that is protected from electrostatic discharge.

When handling an FS7610 NAS appliance, make sure you use an electrostatic wrist strap or a similar form of

protection.

Using an Electrostatic Wrist Strap

You must use an electrostatic wrist strap to protect sensitive hardware from electrostatic discharge.

1. Connect the steel snap on the coiled cord to the stud on the elastic band. See Figure 2.

Figure 2: Using an Electrostatic Wrist Strap

2. Fit the band closely around your wrist.

3. Connect the banana plug to ground, or attach the plug to the alligator clip and connect the clip to a grounded

device such as an ESD mat or the metal frame of a grounded piece of equipment.

Environmental Requirements

The location of the NAS appliance must meet the following environmental requirements:
