IBM Knowledge Center (https://ibm.biz/BdqxdY) contains more information about preparing the physical environment before the
installation; it also provides information about configuring, managing, and servicing the system after installation. The IBM Knowledge
Center is updated between product releases to provide the most current documentation.
Unpacking and verifying the contents
Before you start the installation process, ensure that the following items are available.
•
Philips screw driver
•
Box knife
•
Flat-blade screw driver (optional)
•
Three Ethernet cables
The control enclosure and the following related parts are included in one box. The enclosed inventory sheet lists the part numbers of the
items that were ordered. Items, such as drives and networking adapters, are preinstalled inside each node canister.
•
Control enclosure with the following components preinstalled:
– Two node canisters with optional networking adapters, SFPs, and memory
Each node canister contains three networking adapter slots. The same number and type of adapters must be installed in each node
canister. The control enclosure can contain 0, 2, 4, or 6 networking adapters.
– Two power supply units (PSUs)
– A combination of 24 drives and drive blanks
The number of drives and drive blanks varies, according to the number of drives that were specified in the product order. For
example, if 12 drives were ordered, the drives and 12 drive blanks are preinstalled in the control enclosure.
•
Rail kit, which includes the left and right rails, and 8 securing M5 screws and locating pins.
•
Cables, if they were ordered, for the type and number of networking adapters that are installed in each node canister.

Page 6: Removing And Replacing A Drive
Removing and replacing a drive Use the following procedures to remove and replace a drive or an IBM FlashCore Module (FCM) from a node canister. About this task • You must follow the recommended procedures for handling electrostatic discharge (ESD)-sensitive devices. -
Page 7: Connecting Sas Cables
Connect SAS port 3 of the bottom node canister in the control enclosure to SAS port 1 of the right expansion canister in the second expansion enclosure. For more information about 2U and 5U expansion enclosures, see IBM Knowledge Center (https://ibm.biz/BdqxdY). Connect networking cables To provide connectivity for the system, you must connect cables to the appropriate ports on the control enclosure. - Page 8 Connecting Ethernet cables 1. Connect Ethernet port 1 of each node canister to the IP network that will provide connection to the system management interfaces. Use the information that you provided in the Network cable worksheet on page 11. Ethernet port 1 can also be used for iSCSI connectivity to the system by hosts on the network. If the system contains more than one control enclosure, ensure port 1 of every node canister is connected to the same network to provide access if the configuration node fails.

Page 9: Powering On The System
Powering on the system After you install all hardware components, you must power on the system and check its status. Each control enclosure has two power supply units (PSUs). To provide redundancy in a power failure, connect the power cords to separate power circuits. Attention: Do not power on the system with any open bays or drive slots. -
