HARDWARE INSTALLATION
(The following information only applies to the 9 & 14-Bay 4U InfoStations)
CAUTION:
Remove ALL power from the InfoStation and verify that all cables have been
disconnected.
WARNING:
The I/O repeater module is NOT hot swappable! Remove ALL power to chassis
before removing and installing the I/O repeater module.
NOTES:
The StorCase SAF-TE Processor Board for the InfoStation enclosure has been
designed and tested for use with StorCase SCSI-to-SCSI and Fibre-to-SCSI
RAID Controller Modules. Due to the many options and configuration types
associated with PCI-based RAID controllers, you may or may NOT experience
incompatibility when using the SAF-TE Board option in PCI-based RAID ap-
plications. Please contact StorCase Technical Support at (888) 435-5460
regarding apparent SAF-TE incompatibilities experienced with your implemen-
tation.
Only one (1) SAF-TE board is required per InfoStation chassis. Install the
SAF-TE board onto I/O repeater module #1 only (this applies to both single and
multiple InfoStation chassis configurations).
If the InfoStation chassis has more than one I/O repeater module, install the
SAF-TE board onto I/O repeater module #1 only (this applies to both single and
multiple InfoStation chassis configurations).
For SCSI-to-SCSI RAID controller modules, Disk Channel 1 should be connected
to I/O repeater module #1 only (this applies to both single and multiple InfoStation
chassis configurations).
For FC-to-SCSI RAID controller modules, Disk Channel 0 should be connected
to I/O repeater module #1 only (this applies to both single and multiple InfoStation
chassis configurations).
Refer to both the InfoStation Installation and User's Guide, and the InfoStation
RAID Controller Module User's Guide for further information.
1.
Unplug the InfoStation and verify that ALL cables have been disconnected.
2.
Place the InfoStation on a soft, clean surface to protect the finish of the chassis.
3.
Loosen and remove the two (2) #6-32 Phillips Pan Hd. screws securing the I/O
repeater module to the InfoStation chassis (Figure 2).
4.
Remove the I/O repeater module by grasping handle and pulling out from chassis.
