Step 6. Connect power cords and power on
devices
IMPORTANT:
The power cord must be approved for use
in your country. The power cord must be
rated for the product and for the voltage
and current marked on the electrical ratings
label of the product.
Important safety information about power
cords is available in the Safety and
Disposal Guide, found on the Software
Support/Documentation DVD shipped with
the MSA 2040.
Apply power to the devices in the following order:
1. Connect power cords from the rack to separate
external power sources.
2. Power on the SAN/LAN switches (if necessary).
3. Connect each power supply module in all
attached expansion drive enclosures to a power
source in the rack. If the drive enclosures have
power switches, apply power. If the drive
enclosures do not have power switches, they
automatically start.
4. Wait one minute to ensure that all drives in the
drive enclosure are powered up and ready.
5. Connect each power supply module in the MSA
2040 to a power source in the rack. The MSA
2040 automatically starts (it does not have a
power switch).
6. Observe the LEDs on the front and the rear of the
MSA 2040 and any expansion drive enclosures,
and confirm that no LEDs are amber.
7. Power on the servers (if necessary).
Step 7: Update firmware on all components
After installing hardware and powering on devices
for the first time, verify that MSA 2040 controller
modules, expansion drive enclosure I/O modules, and
all disk drives are running the latest available
firmware. If updates are necessary, obtain the firmware
from the HP website and use the SMU to install the
downloaded firmware. For information, see the HP
MSA 2040 SMU Reference Guide.
Step 8: Configure the MSA 2040
Key configuration steps include setting the system date
and time, entering system parameters, and configuring
storage volumes. For more information, see the HP
MSA 2040 SMU Reference Guide.
