Setting up the Nearline 10 RAID chassis

Do the following to prepare the Nearline 10 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 Nearline 10 RAID Primary and Expansion chassis” on page 378

“Power on the Nearline 10 RAID chassis” on page 380

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 Nearline 10 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.

Connect the Nearline 10 RAID Primary and Expansion chassis

Connect Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and SAS cabling as shown.
