HSV controller cabling

All data cables and power cables attach to the rear of the controller. Adjacent to each data
connector is a two-colored link status indicator.
presented by these indicators.
NOTE: These indicators do not indicate whether there is communication on the link, only whether
the link can transmit and receive data.
The data connections are the interfaces to the disk drive enclosures or loop switches (depending
on your configuration), the other controller, and the fabric. Fiber optic cables link the controllers
to the fabric, and, if an expansion cabinet is part of the configuration, link the expansion cabinet
drive enclosures to the loop es in the main cabinet. Copper cables are used between the controllers
(mirror port) and between the controllers and the drive enclosures or loop switches.

Racks

All storage system components are mounted in a rack. The rack provides the capability for mounting
standard 483 mm (19 in) wide controller and drive enclosures. Each configuration includes two
controller enclosures (the controller pair), drive enclosures, FC loop switches (if required), and an
expansion bulkhead. Each controller pair and all the associated drive enclosures form a single
storage system.
The following racks are available for the EVA8000/8100:
36U Rack
42U Rack
NOTE:
Although the 22U, 25U, 33U, and 41U rack configurations are no longer available, existing
storage systems in these racks are still supported.
Racks and rack-mountable components are typically described using "U" measurements. "U"
measurements are used to designate panel or enclosure heights.
The racks provide the following:

Fault indicator
Off Normal operation. A maintenance charge process keeps the battery fully
charged.
Off Battery is undergoing a full charging process. This is the indication you
typically see after installing a new battery.
On Battery fault. The battery has failed and should be replaced.
Flashing The battery has experienced an over temperature fault.
Flashing (fast) Battery code is being updated. When a new battery is installed, it may
be necessary for the controllers to update the code on the battery to the
correct version. Both indicators flash rapidly for approximately 30
seconds.
Flashing Battery is undergoing a scheduled battery load test, during which the
battery is discharged and then recharged to ensure it is working properly.
During the discharge cycle, you will see this display. The load test occurs
infrequently and takes several hours.
