Understanding the NetBackup 5330 hardware installation sequence

This section describes the installation steps for a NetBackup 5330 HA configuration
and includes links to specific procedures. You can also refer to the following chapter:
See "Hardware installation scenarios for a NetBackup 5330 high availability
configuration" on page 86.
Storage shelf and compute node hardware installation sequence
Table 1-3
Step Description
1 Unpack the storage shelves.
See "Unpacking a primary shelf or an expansion shelf"
2 Unpack the compute node.
See "Unpacking a compute node"
3 Determine the rack locations for the storage shelves and the compute node.
See "Determining rack locations "
4 Mount the storage shelf rails in the rack and install the storage shelves.
Install all expansion shelves below the primary shelf.
The following topic can be used for both the expansion shelf and the primary shelf.
See "Installing a primary shelf or an expansion shelf"
5 Install the disk drives into each storage shelf. Be sure to install only 3TB or 6TB
disks into one shelf. You cannot put both types of disks into a single shelf.
See "Installing disk drives into a primary shelf or an expansion shelf "
6 Mount the compute node rails in the rack and install the compute node.
See "Installing the compute node"
7 Connect the four Fibre Channel cables between the Primary Storage Shelf and
the compute node.
See "Connecting a NetBackup 5330 compute node to a primary shelf"
8 If you want to connect one expansion shelf to a primary shelf: Connect four SAS2
cables between the expansion shelf and the primary shelf.
