an example)
In addition to the NAS head node controller board and chassis, various standard components have
been included with each MIS NAS system, as listed:
•
An "open me first" kit (including this document)
•
SAS or SATA drives and mounting brackets with labels (in a separate box)
•
Up to four power supplies (installed in the MIS NAS or JBOD enclosure)
•
One rackmount rail kit (already mounted if you ordered an SGI rack)
•
One CD containing drivers and utilities
Important: SGI Modular InfiniteStorage systems may require driver versions that are not
included in the original operating system release. When required, SGI provides these drivers
on an SGI Driver CD, which may ship with the system, or (when applicable) on the system
disk (pre-installed in the factory). For more information on this topic check with your sales
or service representative.
Optional hardware components include:
•
Expansion drive enclosures (JBOD systems)
•
An SGI computer equipment rack (D-Rack)
Note: If you ordered your Modular IS NAS system with a rack, it should come with all
enclosures already installed and cabled. See also,
