Remove the Fabric Interconnect Bracket
Locate the shipping bracket at the rear of both Fabric Interconnects.
A
Pull the tabs on the left and right hand side towards the center to unlock the
B
bracket.
Carefully pull the bracket away from both Fabric Interconnects, and out
C
of the rack.

Power on the appliance
Switch on all PDU circuit breakers located on the rear of the
A
main PDU inside the rack. The circuit breakers are on the
rear of the system cabinet.
Wait approximately 2 minutes
B
to allow PDU power-on
con guration to complete.
Note: Appliance infrastructure components without power switches are
powered on together with the PDUs.
Power On Appliance for the First Time

Connect the Appliance to the
Power Source
Review the safety guidelines. Refer to the Section
A
"Review Safety Guidelines" in the Oracle Private
Cloud Appliance Installation Guide.
Visually inspect the appliance.
B
• Check the rack for damage and loose or missing
screws.
• Check that cables are securely connected.
• Verify that power cables with appropriate
connectors for your power source have been
supplied.
• Check the floor tile arrangement for cable
access and airflow.
• Check the airflow that leads in to the front of the
system. (See Verify Installation Requirements.)
Make sure that the circuit breakers on the Sun ZFS Storage
C
Appliance are in the On ("I") position.
Note: The image shows the circuit breaker on the left power supply. The
circuit breaker of the right power supply must also be switched on.
(part 2)
Connect the power cords.
C
• Open the rear door.
• Remove the cable ties from the power cords.
• Route the power cords to the facility receptacles
either above the rack or below the flooring.
• Secure the power cords in bundles.
• Plug the power distribution unit (PDU) power cords
into the facility receptacles.
Press the Power button (1) located on the front of the rst
D
management node (in rack unit 5).

Wait approximately 5 minutes to allow the management
E
system to power on completely. When complete, the
Power/OK LED (2) illuminates and remains a steady green.
7
Connect the appliance to the network
Connect two 10GbE ports labeled 'Public' on both
A
Fabric Interconnects to your (next-layer) data center switches.
Connect a workstation with a web browser directly to the
B
management network using an ethernet cable plugged into
port 19 of an Oracle ES1-24 switch.
Con gure the workstation's wired network connection to
C
use the IP address 192.168.4.254.
Note: For advanced network con guration options, refer to the Oracle
Private Cloud Appliance Administrator's Guide.
If these connections cannot be made, DO NOT proceed to
WARNING:
the next step. Provisioning will fail without proper data center connectivity.
On the workstation, browse to the Private Cloud Appliance
F
Dashboard at:
http://192.168.4.216.
The page loads as soon as the web server on the
management node is running. It has a built-in 20 second
refresh interval.
The first management node automatically powers on
additional components and starts the provisioning of the
compute nodes. Once the system has discovered and
provisioned at least one compute node, the web interface
becomes available. As compute nodes are provisioned, their
status changes to green, indicating that they are ready.
Note: The provisioning of a full base rack takes
up to three hours, starting from the moment when
the rst management node is powered on.
