NetBackup 5330 storage shelves and disk drives
Expansion Storage Shelf. When all connections are completed, turn on the storage
shelves and the compute node to initialize and synchronize the units.
Note: If more than one Expansion Storage Shelf is used, turn on the shelves furthest
from the primary shelf first. Then turn on the expansion shelf that is connected to
the primary shelf. Next, turn on the primary shelf. Finally, turn on the compute node.
To help reduce the weight of the units during installation, the disk drives are not
factory-installed into the storage shelves. The disks are shipped in separate
packages, with ten disks in each package. Six packages are required to fully
populate each storage shelf. Each individual disk is wrapped in an anti-static bag.
Disks must be installed into the storage shelves by opening the storage shelf drawers
and inserting each disk into a slot. Best practices recommend that you start at the
bottom drawer and move up. Insert the disks into the storage shelves one drawer
at a time.
The drawers for each shelf are numbered from 1 to 5.
The disk slots in each drawer are numbered from 1 to 12 starting on the left front
corner.
Three LEDs on the front of each drawer provide information about each column of
three slots.
