  • Page 15: Introducing The Enclosure

    Chapter Introducing the Enclosure This chapter describes the StorageWorks Enclosure 4200 family of low voltage differential (LVD) disk enclosures (see Figure 1–1 and Figure 1–2). These enclosures support Wide-Ultra and Wide-Ultra2 small computer system interface (SCSI) protocols. The internal bus supports only LVD drives. The external bus (the enclosure to the host controller bus) supports either Wide-Ultra2 (LVD) and or Wide-Ultra single-ended (SE) SCSI protocols.

    Wide-Ultra or Wide-Ultra2, LVD or SE. The SCSI bus type determines the length of this bus, and therefore, the maximum cable length. The standard Compaq cable length of 12 ft (3.7 m) ensures satisfactory operation. As for all SCSI buses, the shorter the cable, the more efficient the bus operation.

  • Page 41: Environmental Monitoring Unit

    Environmental Monitoring Unit The Compaq StorageWorks Environmental Monitoring Unit, the EMU, (see Figure 4–1) is an integral part of every Model 4200 series LVD enclosure. This element performs several functions, including monitoring the enclosure operation, detecting and indicating errors, and displaying the EMU and enclosure status.

  • Page 44: Temperature

    The Ultra2 SCSI bus controllers and adapters can control RAID subsystems, such as those using StorageWorks Model 4200 LVD disk enclosures. Although the bus is a data interchange facility it does not provide the features necessary to permit a controller to monitor enclosure and storage device status.
  • Page 45: Device Swap Signal

    Environmental Monitoring Unit 4–5 This signal is asserted (high) when all the power supplies and blowers are operating properly. Should any power supply or blower be operating outside of a specified range this signal level is low until the fault is corrected. Device Swap Signal This fault bus signal (SWAP) detects the removal or insertion of a storage device on a SCSI bus causing the signal to generate a logic low pulse.
  • Page 47: Disk Drives

    Chapter Disk Drives The enclosure supports Compaq hot-pluggable, Wide-Ultra2 SCSI, LVD disk drives. This chapter describes the disk drive features, functions, and characteristics. The 14-disk enclosure supports 1.0-inch, 3.5-inch form factor drives mounted in a carrier Figure 5–1. CAUTION: Controlling airflow within the enclosure requires installing a disk drive or a drive blank in each drive bay.
  • Page 48: Status Reporting

    5–2 Compaq StorageWorks Enclosure 4200 Family LVD Disk Enclosure User Guide Status Reporting All drives have three status LEDs (see Figure 5–2) to define the operational status of the drive. To determine the drive status you must observe all three LEDs (see Table 5–1).
  • Page 49: Drive Status

    Disk Drives 5–3 Drive Status The two green and one amber LEDs are either O , or F . Since the status LASHING LED displays are easily interpreted, they are the most commonly used indicators of drive status. In some configurations, the host controller can control the status LEDs. The symbols for these conditions are shown in Table 5–1.
