Product Description General Description Hewlett-Packard’s StorageWorks Disk System 2405 (referred to in this guide as the disk system) is a high-availability Fibre Channel (FC) storage product. Dual optical fiber ports on dual link controllers provide Fibre Channel connections to the host. Fifteen slots accept high-speed, high-capacity FC disks connected to a FC midplane.
Status Indicators LEDs on the disk system enable you to detect and replace failed components and thereby prevent or minimize users’ downtime. For additional information about LEDs, see chapter 4, Troubleshooting. On the front of the disk system, a pair of LEDs indicates the status of the disk system, and an LED for each slot shows disk I/O activity: The system power LED (B in Figure 1) indicates that power is on or off.
Upgradability You can increase disk system storage capacity by: Replacing disk drives with higher-capacity disk drives Adding disks in unused slots Adding another disk system to a FC loop None of these actions require shutting down the product, but some may require the use of system utilities to manage file systems.
Components User-replaceable components enable high availability and easy maintenance. This section describes the following components: Disks and disk fillers LCCs Power supply/fan modules Disks and Disk Fillers Disks, shown in Figure 3, are 3.5-inch Low Profile disks in open metal carriers. Disks are Fibre Channel.
Figure 4. Other features of the LCC are: LEDs (D) indicating LCC status and bus configuration Rotary switch (E) Configuration switch with four settings: 1 Link Speed (1.0625 Gb/s or 2.125 Gb/s) 2 Reserved 3 Reserved 4 Power fail warning (enable/disable) Locking screws (F) Cam levers (G) Product Description...
Page 20
LCC circuitry provides the following functions: System fault detection Disk address generation Caution If an LCC fails, do not remove it from the disk system until you are ready to replace it with a new one. The failed LCC should remain installed to assure proper cooling for the disk system.
Power Supply/Fan Module Redundant, hot-pluggable 340-watt power supplies convert wide-ranging AC voltage from an external main to stable DC output and deliver it to the midplane. Each power supply has an internal fan, an AC receptacle (A in Figure 5), two ejector handles (D) with thumbscrews (C), and 2 LEDs (B).
Page 22
Power supplies share the load reciprocally; that is, each supply automatically increases its output to compensate for reduced output from the other, and vice versa. If one power supply fails, the other delivers the entire load. Internal circuitry triggers a fault when the internal fan or other part fails. At the same time, the power fault LED (amber) illuminates, and, if enabled, the hardware event monitor sends an event message.
Hardware/Software Requirements The disk system is supported on the following operating systems: HP-UX 11.00 with HWE 0302 or greater HP-UX 11.11 with HWE 0302 or greater For supported servers, see the latest HP 9000 Configuration and Ordering Guide. One of the following Fibre Channel HBAs must be installed in the host: A5158A, 1 Gb PCI Fibre Channel HBA A6684A, 1 Gb HSC Fibre Channel HBA A6685A, 1 Gb HSC Fibre Channel HBA...
Single Host Basic Configuration The maximum number of disk systems supported on a Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) is seven. The maximum storage capacity with this configuration is approximately 7.5 Terabytes (105 disk modules at the 73 Gbyte capacity point). This configuration does not provide any redundancy to the data path, however there is some hardware redundancy provided by the enclosures themselves (power supplies).
Single Host PV Links Configuration Data path redundancy can be achieved with the configuration shown in Figure . Using an additional host bus adapter and the LVM software, pvlinks can be created to provide a redundant path to data. A separate mirror path can be created for data protection, also.
Two Host High Availability Configuration Figure 8 shows a basic high availability configuration. Each disk system can still be configured using pvlinks and mirroring. High availability software protects against a disk system failure. A failure in a cable or LCC will result in a loop failure.
Four Host Hub Configuration The disk system can run at 2 Gb/s speed. For legacy systems a four host configuration could be used for an advanced high availability environment at 1 Gb/s speed. See Figure 9, below. The performance of this configuration is limited to a maximum of 200MB/s (100 MB/s per loop).
Definitions The following terms have specific meanings in the context of this guide: High availability (HA) HA describes hardware and software systems that are designed to minimize planned and unplanned downtime. High availability is measured at the system level and stated as the percentage of time the system is in a state to do useful work;...
Page 29
Multimode A type of fiber optic cable that allows more than one mode (rays of light) to be guided. Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) A Fibre Channel topology that provides a low-cost solution to attach multiple communicating ports in a loop without hubs and switches. Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (AL_PA) A unique one-byte valid value assigned during Loop Initialization to each NL_Port or FL_Port on a Loop.
Installation Preparation Before installing the disk system, make sure (1) electrical wiring, breakers, and PDUs meet power needs, (2) the required support software is installed on the host, and (3) if you are connecting the disk system to a V-class server, auto- termination is enabled on the host bus adapter.
Peak power requirements and PDU capacity affect the number of disk systems that can be installed in a rack. For example, to install more than four disk systems in Hewlett-Packard legacy racks (HP C2785A, C2786A, and C2787A), you must upgrade to 19-inch PDUs.
nominal power and redundant PDU/PDRUs. For nonredundant configurations, divide the number of recommended PDU/PDRUs by 2. Table 3. Recommended PDU/PDRUs for Multiple Disk Systems in HP Legacy Racks No. of Disk 1.1 meter 1.6 meter 2.0 meter Systems (21 U) (32 U) (41 U) 1 –...
Installing PDU/PDRUs The 19-inch PDUs and PDRUs can be installed vertically or horizontally in the rack. Choose PDU/PDRU locations with the following guidelines in mind: Place PDU/PDRUs within the reach of disk system cords. Place PDU/PDRUs vertically whenever possible. See sample installations in Figure 10 and Figure 11.
Software Requirements Ensure that the minimum revisions of HP-UX extension software and online diagnostics are installed. These release packages enable STM and EMS for the disk system. At the host console, enter swlist | grep XSW and look for the following extension software according to the installed HP-UX revision: —...

Study the installation overview (see Figure 15). The following tools are required for the installation of the storage device: Flat-blade screwdriver T25 nut driver WARNING To ensure cabinet or rack stability, and avoid possible injury, always install the storage devices in the rack or cabinet from the bottom up.
Use the following table as a guide for placement of the rails in a Rack System/E where multiple disk systems will be installed. You can rack multiple disk systems without gaps by installing rails every three EIA units. For example, starting at the bottom of a 2-meter rack, set rails at the following unit/hole locations: Table 7.
Page 45
Note Be sure to use the same tab—upper or lower—on opposing rails. Also, hole patterns vary at opposite ends of the rails. Insert the rail tabs into the appropriate column holes (see A in Figure 18). Secure the rail ends with one M5 screw each. Install clipnuts on the front columns of the cabinet (see Figure 19).
Page 46
Place the storage device on the rails and slide into the cabinet until the retention bracket comes into contact with the rack column (see Figure 20). WARNING An empty disk system weighs approximately 54 pounds (24.5 kg). To avoid personal injury, it is recommended that two people install the storage device in the rack.
Page 48
Place a rail clamp on each rail and slide them to each bottom rear corner of the storage device (see Figure 21). Secure the clamps to the rails. Use one 10-32 screw for each rail clamp. Installation...
Installing the storage device into an HP Computer Cabinet Your storage device can be installed into the following Computer Cabinets: C2785A Computer Cabinet (1.10M; 21U) C2786A Computer Cabinet (1.60M; 32U) C2787A Computer Cabinet (1.96M; 41U) Caution To ensure proper installation, only use the instructions in this manual for installing the storage device in the HP Computer Cabinet.

Tighten the storage device retention (M5) screws through the retention bracket (see Figure 28). Installation...
Installing the Storage Device into a Rittal-Style Rack Your storage device can be installed into the Rittal-Style Rack by doing the following steps: Inspect the contents of the rail kit. If any parts are missing, call your nearest HP sales office (see Figure 30). Align the front of rails to the inside of the front cabinet column.
Extend the adjustable slide to the back column of the cabinet. Insert the mounting screws and finger tighten them through the rear column of the cabinet (see Figure 33). Installation...
Tighten the center nuts to finger tightness (see Figure 34). Tighten all screws to their final tightness using a driver. Tighten the screws that hold the rail to the columns first, before tightening the center slide nuts to their final tightness. Repeat the procedure above for the other rail.
Move the disk system retention brackets to the frontmost set of mounting holes. This allows the disk system to install further back into the cabinet; and allows the cabinet doors (if present) to close properly (see Figure 36). Installation...
Page 62
Push the disk system back into the rack until the disk system retaining bracket is flush against the front column of the rack. Bolt the disk system to the front column. Use the fifth hole from the top of the front of the rail (see Figure 37).
Install the Disk System Remove the power supply/fan modules to prepare the disk system for lifting: Loosen the screws in the extractor handles of each power supply/fan module with the chassis still in the box. Pull the extractor handles out from the center of the power supply to disengage it from the midplane.
Step 4: Configure LCCs The disk system comes with two LCCs installed. If you are connecting this disk system to an HP StorageWorks Virtual Array 7400 or to a 1 Gb/s hub, the link speed switch must be set to 1 Gb/s. Attach your ESD strap to ground.
Open the LCC cam latches (B in Figure 39) by pulling them away from the center. Align the LCC with the slot (D in Figure 39), and insert the LCC into the slot at the back of the disk system. Stop pushing when the LCC meets the midplane.
Step 6: Connect FC and Power Cables Connect the front-end fiber-optic cables. Front-end fiber-optic cable connections depend on the type of connectors used by the controller and the type of HBA to which the controller is connected. The Virtual Array Products use integrated LC (small form factor) connectors.
Step 7: Install Disk Modules Caution Touching exposed areas on the disk can cause electrical discharge and disable the disk. Be sure you are grounded and be careful not to touch exposed circuits. Disk modules are fragile and ESD sensitive. Dropping one end of the disk just two inches is enough to cause permanent damage.
Determine which slots, 1 through 15, will contain disk modules and which will contain fillers. At least two slots must contain disk modules. Put on the ESD strap and attach the other end of the strap appropriately. Caution Disk modules are fragile. Handle carefully. Be careful to grasp the disk module by its handle and avoid touching exposed circuitry.
Step 9: Verify Devices on the Host On the host system run IOSCAN (ioscan -f) and verify that the disks and LCC(s) are listed in IOSCAN output. If the displayed “S/W State” is not “claimed,” begin troubleshooting (see chapter 4). Sample IOSCAN Each LCC (ctl) or disk appears as a separate target in IOSCAN output.

Online Status Information Software applications that run on HP-UX hosts display status and descriptive information about the disk system and its components. SAM is the system administrator’s interface to specific HP-UX functions. STM is the service engineer’s tool for information, diagnostics, firmware updates, and more. Viewing Component Status in SAM SAM displays the status of disk system components on the host console.
Status values are OK, critical error, noncritical, not installed, unknown, and status not available. See Interpreting Status Values on page 100 for the meanings of these terms. Viewing the STM Information Log STM generates Information and Activity logs for a selected disk system. Execute STM in an X window and run the Information tool as follows.

Disk Module Add or replace disks to increase storage capacity or eliminate faults. (See chapter 4 for troubleshooting procedures.) Disks must be Fibre Channel (FC) and 3.5 inches wide but can vary in capacity. For current information about supported disks, consult an HP sales representative. You do not need to turn off the disk system to replace a disk or filler.
The following messages will appear if the disk is defective: VGDISPLAY: WARNING: COULDN’T QUERY PHYSICAL VOLUME “/dev/dsk/c2t4d0” THE SPECIFIED PATH DOES NOT CORRESPOND TO PHYSICAL VOLUME ATTACHED TO THE VOLUME GROUP VGDISPLAY: WARNING: COULDN’T QUERY ALL OF THE PHYSICAL VOLUMES If either of the above messages appears, follow the replacement instructions for unattached physical volumes (page 114).

Procedure Caution Whenever possible, follow standard ESD procedures and avoid touching exposed circuitry.
Caution Replace the disk module or filler immediately (see next step). Caution Touching the disk circuit board can cause high energy discharge and permanently damage the disk. Disk modules are fragile. Handle carefully. Remove the replacement disk module from its ESD bag, being careful to grasp the disk module by its extraction handle (see Figure 57).
with I/O activity to the disk. If you observe different results, refer to chapter 4, Troubleshooting, for probable causes and solutions. Run IOSCAN on the host and verify that the replacement disk module is “claimed.” Restore file systems and data as needed (see Preparation on page 111). Replace an LCC when troubleshooting shows that the card is faulty (see “Isolating Causes”...
Open the cam levers (B) by pulling them away from the center of the card. This disconnects the LCC pins from the midplane. Pull the LCC out of the slot (C). Replace the LCC immediately if the product is in use (see next step). Attach the clip end of your ESD wrist strap to the ground stud at the top of the rack.
Set address switches on the new LCC to match settings on the peer LCC. Caution The address switches must have the same settings on both LCCs. Open the cam levers (see Figure 58) by pulling them away from the center of the card.
Power Supply Replace a power supply as soon as possible when troubleshooting indicates a power supply failure (see “Isolating Causes” in Chapter 4). If a power supply fails, the remaining power supply provides proper voltage to the disk system. However, if the remaining power supply fails before the first power supply is replaced, the disk system will turn off.
Slide the replacement power supply into the empty slot (D in Figure 60). The power supply begins to engage the midplane with 3/8 inch (8mm) still exposed. Rotate the handles back toward the center of the power supply module to draw the power supply the last 3/8 inch into the chassis and firmly seat the power supply on the midplane.
Disk System Use this procedure if you need to move or remove and replace the disk system in the rack. For example, you must remove the disk system from the rack in order to replace the midplane or power switch assembly. Twenty four inches of vertical space is required in the rack if the midplane or power switch assembly are to be replaced without removing the disk system from the rack.
Push the disconnected disk system forward or lift it completely out of the rack, as needed. When you are ready to replace the disk system, push the chassis back into the rack. Insert and tighten the front mounting screws. Reinstall the power supply/fan module(s). Reinstall the disk modules in the slots from which they were removed.
