Install hardware |Stage 2

Unpack the Hardware

Unpack the contents and inventory the contained hardware against

the packing slip. Read through all the instructions before proceeding.

Install the Rails

Refer to the enclosed instructions for detailed information

on how to install the rails. To download the instructions, go

to Lenovo Data Center Support Web site.

NOTE: Install hardware from the bottom of the rack up to

the top to prevent the equipment from toppling over.

Install the Shelf

Secure the Shelf

1. Insert screws into the ﬁrst and third holes from

the top of the shelf on both sides to secure it to

the front of the cabinet.

2. Place two back brackets on each side of the upper

rear section of the shelf. Insert screws into the ﬁrst

and third holes of each bracket to secure theback

of the cabinet.

Install the Drives

2. Starting at the front left slot of the top drawer, install each drive by gently

positioning into the drive slot and lowering the raised drive handle until it

clicks into place.

1. Wrap the strap end of the ESD wristband around your wrist, and

secure the clip end to a metal ground to prevent static discharges.

NOTE: If you are installing fewer than 60 drives, if you have

solid-state drives (SSDs), or if your drives have dierent capacities:

Maintain a minimum of 20 drives per shelf. Install drives in the front four

slots in each drawer ﬁrst, for adequate airﬂow for cooling.

Distribute any remaining drives across the drawers. If possible, install an

equal number of each type of drive in each drawer to allow for the creation

of Drawer Loss Protected volume groups or disk pools.

Distribute any SSDs evenly across the drawers.

2. Supporting the shelf from the bottom, slide it into

the cabinet. If the lift handles are used, remove them

one set at a time as the shelf slides into the cabinet.

To remove the handles, pull back on the release latch,

push down, then pull away from the shelf.

1. If lifting the shelf by hand, attach the four lift handles.

Push up on each handle until it clicks into place.

Person

Team Lift

CAUTION: An empty shelf weighs approximately

132 lb (60 kg). A mechanized lift or four people using lift

handles are required to safely move an empty shelf.

3. Carefully slide the drawer back in by pushing the center

and gently closing both latches.

4. Attach the front bezel.



ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage — Stop

pushing the drawer if you feel binding. Use the release

levers at the front of the drawer to slide the drawer

back out. Then, carefully reinsert the drawer into the slot.

Example: Power connections are on the rear of the shelf.

Cable the Shelves

Cable the system according to your conﬁguration.

Examples are shown in this section. For more cabling

options, see ThinkSystem DE-Series Hardware Installa-

tion and Maintenance Guide for 4U Enclosures.



Cable IOM B of the ﬁrst drive shelf to IOM B of

the second drive shelf.

Cable controller B to IOM B of the second

drive shelf.

CAUTION: Conﬁrm the drive shelf power switches are o.

3. Turn on the two power switches on the controller shelf.

4. Check the LEDs and seven-segment display on each controller.

During the boot sequence, the seven-segment display will display

Cable the Data Hosts

Cable the system according to your network topology.

Direct-attach topology

Option Connect each host adapter directly to the host ports on the controllers.

IP address: 192.168.128.101

IP address: 192.168.128.100

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

1. Using an Ethernet cable, connect to controller A port 1 (P1). to the ethernet port on

your laptop.



2. Manually specify the following IP address and subnet mask on the laptop’s

Ethernet port that you have physically connected to the storage array:

Fabric topology

Option

Connect each host adapter directly to the switch.

Connect each switch directly to the host ports on the controllers.



Connect and Conﬁgure the Management Connection

3. Use the laptop’s browser to access the storage array’s management

software using the following IP address:

After Installing the Hardware

1. Use the ThinkSystem SAN OS software to conﬁgure and manage your storage arrays.

2. In the simplest network conﬁguration, connect your controller to a web browser and use

ThinkSystem System Manager for managing a single DE-series storage array.

3. In a more complex environment, use the ThinkSystem SAN Manager for managing multiple

storage arrays.

4. In the management software, go to the Hardware tab and select Show back of shelf

under Controller Shelf. Highlight controller B, and then select Conﬁgure management

ports to set the IP addresses for management port 1 on controller B. Do not conﬁgure

management port 2. This port is reserved for Lenovo technical support. After you

have conﬁgured controller B’s management port, repeat for controller A.

5. Disconnect your laptop from the storage array and connect an Ethernet cable

to management port 1 (labeled P1) on each DE4000H and DE6000H controller

and connect the other end to your network.
