Arkeia Physical Appliance Installation and Configuration Guide 1
1. INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE
This section explains how to attach an Arkeia Physical Appliance to a network.
The individual responsible for this task, usually the System Administrator, must
have access permissions which allows him or her to add a computer to the
network.
1.1. Select a Site
The installation site will depend upon the requested form factor. The Arkeia
Physical Appliance 100 Series models are either tabletop or rack-mounted
machines. The Arkeia Physical Appliance 200, 300 and 500 Series models are
rack-mounted.
1.2. Clearance
Access to power and network cables at the back of the Arkeia Physical
Appliance will be needed. The front panel should be easily visible and a
clearance of 12in (30cm) is needed to remove the hard disk drives. Models with
built-in tape drives will need clearance to insert and remove the tape cartridges.
1.3. Environment
The Arkeia Physical Appliance should be installed in an environment suitable for
computers:
 Dust free
 No excessive vibration
 Isolated from strong electromagnetic fields generated by electric and
electronic devices
 Well-ventilated
1.4. Connect to Power
Connect the supplied power cable to the power outlet and the other end to the
IEC C13 socket at the back of the Arkeia Physical Appliance, and then press
the power button on the front panel.
Beginning with the 110, 210, 310 and 510 Series, all Arkeia Physical
Apopliances have auto-sensing power supply units (PSUs) and support both
110v and 220v.
