ES30 and FS15 chassis
Front panel: Disks
Note
Only Data Domain DD990, DD4200, DD4500, DD6800, DD7200, DD9300, DD9500,
and DD9800 support cloud tier storage. Cloud tier storage requires the installation of
ES30 shelves to store the cloud tier metadata.
An Expanded-Storage license is required to expand the active tier storage above the
amount originally installed. You cannot use additional storage without first applying the
appropriate licenses.
Additional licensing information is available in the Data Domain Operating System
Administration Guide and the Data Domain Operating System Command Reference Guide .
This section describes the front and back panel of the ES30 and FS15 shelves and the
status lights visible from the front and rear of the ES30 and FS15 chassis.
Note
Unless otherwise noted, any ES30 reference also applies to the FS15; the only
differences between the two shelves are the type and quantity of drives.
After you unlock and remove the snap-on bezel on the front panel, the 15 disks are
visible. Disk numbers, as reported by system commands, range from 1 to 15. When
facing the front panel, Disk 1 is located in the leftmost slot in the enclosure and Disk 15
in the rightmost slot.

Note
The flanges or sheet metal on the ES30 show 0 to 14 but the software will refer to the
logical numbering of 1 to 15.
Each disk in the enclosure has two LEDs. The disk's active LED glows green when the
disk is functional. The disk fault LED glows amber when the disk has failed.
If there is a problem with the enclosure, the enclosure fault light is amber. The disk
enclosure power light should be on (blue) when the shelf is powered on.
When replacing ES30 disks, a good practice is to run this command:
disk beacon <enclosure-id>.<disk-id>
