Installing The Wti Network Power Switch - IBM System Storage TS7600 ProtecTIER Series Installation Roadmap Manual

2. When the physical installation is complete, do one of the following as

Installing the WTI network power switch

About this task
This procedure applies only to a clustered gateway configuration. If you are
installing a stand-alone gateway, go to "Applying cable labels" on page 27.
Important: The WTI network power switch (if included, or if clustering), should
be positioned within one meter or closer, to the TS7650G servers. The cables for the
WTI network power switch must be able to reach the power distribution units
(PDUs), and the cables from the TS7650G servers must be able to reach the WTI
network power switch. The ability for one server to power-off the other server in a
clustered environment is a design requirement. For this to occur, both servers must
be plugged into the WTI network power switch at all times. In addition, locating
the servers within one meter of the WTI network power switch will allow the
servers to remain connected to the network power switch if the servers are placed
in a service position.
Procedure
1. Physically install the WTI network power switch into the rear of the server

frame. To do so:
a. Align the supplied threaded nut clips with the center holes at the top and
bottom of the vertical, rectangular opening in the upper-left corner of the
server frame.
b. Place the WTI switch into the opening with the power outlets at the top,
and secure the mounting brackets to the frame using the mounting screws.
Note: You may need to rotate the WTI switch's mounting brackets to
facilitate mounting the switch so that the power receptacles face outward,
toward the back of the frame. This is required so that the power receptacles
are easily accessible for power connections.
