Chapter 2 Installing the Level 10 Storage System
Dell 1950 PowerEdge server
Connect the iSCSI interface port to a media port on the GigE switch. Connect
the motherboard GigE port 1 and GigE port 2 to control ports on the GigE
switch.
Connect the Fibre Channel port to the RAID storage device.
• Assign a control network IP address to GigE port 1. Use standard Windows
procedures. Refer to “Networking tips” on page 112 .
• Change the hostname. Use standard Windows procedures.
• Configure SNMP properties so the trap destination points to the NetCentral server
PC. Use standard Windows procedures. If you are not using the SNMP community
name “public”, configure the community name and set permissions to RW. Also
make sure that the Authentication trap is enabled.
Also refer to “K2 Media Server descriptions” on page 397 .
Setting up the L10 RAID chassis
Do the following to prepare the L10 RAID storage devices:
• Install the 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 the K2 Lx0 RAID Instruction Manual for rack mount instructions.
• “Connect the L10 RAID Primary and Expansion chassis” on page 42
• “Power on the L10 RAID chassis” on page 43
In addition, you will configure network settings, SNMP settings, and bind RAID
disks. These tasks are part of the K2 System Configuration application and Storage
Utility procedures later in this chapter.
On the L10 RAID, you do not need to manually set a Fibre Channel address ID on
controllers or a chassis address on Expansion chassis.
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.
Also refer to “K2 RAID storage description” on page 402 .
