VTrak Setup Task List

Task 1: Unpacking the VTrak (below)

Task 2: Mounting VTrak in a Rack (page 3)

Task 3: Making Management and Data Connections (page 5)

Task 4: Powering On the System (page 8)

For complete information about your VTrak E610f and J610s subsystems, see

their respective VTrak Product (user) Manuals on the Software CDs.

Task 1: Unpacking the VTrak

The VTrak box contains the following items:

•VTrakUnit

•QuickStartGuide

• Left and right center-mount

brackets

• Left and right mounting rails

• RJ11-to-DB9 serial data cable

• 1.5m (4.9 ft) Power cords (2)

• CD with SNMP files, Product (user)

Manual and Quick Start Guide

Warning

The electronic components within the VTrak disk array are

sensitive to damage from Electro-Static Discharge (ESD).

Observe appropriate precautions at all times when handling the

VTrak or its subassemblies.

Caution

At least two persons are required to safely lift the VTrak

subsystem from the box and place it into a rack.

Important

Use the following categories of network cables with VTrak:

• Cat 6, preferred

• Cat 5E, minimum

Task 2: Mounting VTrak in a Rack

The E610f/s subsystem installs to the rack using the supplied mounting rails. You

can also use your existing rails.

Figure 1. VTrak mounted in a rack with the supplied rails

To install the VTrak subsystem into a rack with the supplied mounting rails:

1. Check the fit of the mounting rails in your rack system.

2. Adjust the length of the mounting rails as needed.

3. Attach the mounting rail assemblies to the outside of the rack posts, using

the attaching screws from your rack system. See Figure 2.

Be sure the support is on the bottom facing inward.

Cautions

• At least two persons are required to safely lift, place, and

attach the VTrak subsystem into a rack.

• Do not lift or move the VTrak subsystem by the handles,

power supplies or the controller units. Hold the subsystem

itself.

• Do not install the VTrak subsystem into a rack without rails to

support the subsystem.

• Only a qualified electrician who is familiar with the installation

procedure should mount and install the VTrak subsystem.

• Be sure all switches are OFF before installing the VTrak

subsystem or exchanging components.

4. Square the rail assemblies in the rack.

5. Tighten the adjustment screws and the attaching screws.

6. Place the VTrak subsystem onto the rails.

7. Secure the VTrak subsystem to the rack through each handle, using the

attaching screws from your rack system.

8. Remove the drive carriers from their packing and install them into the drive

bays of the VTrak enclosure. See Figure 1.

9. Plug in the power supply cords.

Task 3: Making Management and Data Connections

VTrak models have two RAID controllers. Each controller has an Ethernet (RJ45)

Management Port connector that enables you to monitor the VTrak over your

network using the WebPAM PROe Software. VTrak supports HTTP, HTTPS, and

Telnet protocols.

The VTrak RAID controllers have two 4-Gb Fibre Channel (FC) connections for

the data ports. See Figure 3.

You can configure your VTrak for:

• Storage Area Network (SAN)

• Direct Attached Storage (DAS)

• JBOD Expansion using a SAS data connection

Configuring a Storage Area Network

A storage area network (SAN) requires:

• A Fibre Channel switch

• A Fibre Channel HBA card in the Mac Pro

• A network switch

To establish the data path:

Connect one of the Fibre Channel data ports on the VTrak controller to your

Fibre Channel switch.

To establish the management path:

1. Connect the Management port on the VTrak controller to your network

switch. Figure 4.

2. Connect each Mac Pro’s NIC to your network switch.

Task 3: Making Management and Data Connections

Configuring Direct Attached Storage

Direct attached storage (DAS) requires:

• Two Fibre Channel HBA cards in the Host PC or Server

• A network switch

To establish the data path:

Connect one of the Fibre Channel data ports on the VTrak controller to your

Fibre Channel switch.

To establish the management path:

1. Connect the Management port on the VTrak controller to your network

switch. See Figure 5.

2. Connect the Mac Pro’s NIC to your network switch.

Task 4: Powering On the System

There is a specific sequence to follow when you power on your VTrak and Mac

Pro system.

Figure 6. VTrak and Mac Pro power on sequence

Task 5: Initial Setup

VTrak Default Network Settings

You must change these network settings so the VTrak works on your network.

The setting change requires a serial connection from your computer to the VTrak.

Your computer activatesthe Command Line Interface (CLI) on the VTrak to make

the required changes.

Setting up a Serial Connection

There are two methods to make the initial network settings:

•Xserve Server – Requires ZTerm software

•Mac Pro – Requires ZTerm software and USB-to-DB9 adapter

Xserve Server

Before you begin:

1. Go to http://homepage.mac.com/dalverson/zterm/ and download the ZTerm

terminal emulation software.

Install ZTerm onto your Xserve server.

2. Find the RJ11-to-DB9 serial cable that ships with the VTrak.

Attach the RJ11 end of the serial cable to the RJ11 serial connector on one

of the VTrak controller modules. See Figure 3.

Attach the DB9 end of the serial cable to the serial connector on the Xserve.

Figure 7. Xserve Server serial connector

DB-9 serial connector

Xserve Server

VTrak Quick Start Guide

To set up a serial connection with VTrak:

1. On your Xserve, double-click the ZTerm desktop icon (right).

The Local window opens on the desktop.

2. From the ZTerm dropdown menus, choose Settings > Connection.

Set the Data Rate to 115200 and click the OK button.

3. Press Enter once to launch the CLI.

The CLI opens in the Local window. The prompt should look like this:

administrator@cli>

If you see a Login prompt, type administrator and press Enter.

Then at the Password prompt, type password and press Enter.

4. Go to “Making Settings on VTrak” on page 11.

Mac Pro

Before you begin:

1. Go to http://homepage.mac.com/dalverson/zterm/ and download the ZTerm

terminal emulation software.

Install ZTerm onto your Mac Pro.

2. Obtain a USB-to-DB9 adapter.

Install the software for the USB-to-DB9 adapter onto your Mac Pro.

Figure 8. An example of a USB-to-DB9 adapter

3. Find the RJ11-to-DB9 serial cable ships with the VTrak.

Attach the RJ11 end of the serial cable to the RJ11 serial connector on one

of the VTrak controller modules. See Figure 3.
