Chapter 3 Servicing the K2 Lx0 RAID

Installing a RAID controller or expansion adapter

To install a RAID controller or expansion adapter:

1. Install the module part way into the chassis, far enough in so that it is supported

physically by the housing.

2. Connect the cables.

3. Continuing installing the module in the chassis, as shown in the following diagram.

4. If inserting an expansion adapter on a system that has a redundant controller,

remove and reinsert the controller to start initialization. If inserting a controller or
expansion adapter on a system that does not have a redundant controller, power up
the system.

5. Verify RAID controller initialization as displayed by the module’s Ready LED.

This process takes approximately three to eight minutes. Refer to

“Interpreting

controller status LEDs” on page 35

.

6. Check RAID controller status using NetCentral or the Grass Valley Storage Utility.

Replacing a power supply

• The K2 Lx0 RAID and K2 Lx0 Expansion Chassis have dual power supply

configurations so that they do not halt if one power supply breaks down. Even if a
power supply is not functioning, the fan inside can draw power from the other
