Cable K2 RAID

Before cabling, install the K2 RAID chassis in its permanent location. After mounting the chassis
in the rack, you must secure brackets to the front rail to support the Grass Valley bezel. Refer to
related topics in "K2 SAN Installation and Service Manual" for rack mount instructions.

You do not need to manually set a Fibre Channel address ID on controllers or a chassis address on
Expansion chassis.

As directed by the system diagram for your storage system, cable the K2 RAID devices using the
instructions in this section.

Once the RAID storage is connected and configured, do not swap Expansion chassis or otherwise
reconfigure storage. If you connect an Expansion chassis in a different order or to the wrong
controller, the controller will see a configuration mismatch and fault.
