Chapter 6 Installing the Nearline Storage System

Setting up the L3 RAID chassis

• Install the chassis in its permanent location. Refer to the for rack mount

instructions.

“Assign Fibre Channel address ID” on page 257

.

“Connect the L3 RAID chassis” on page 257

“Assign chassis address on Expansion chassis” on page 258

.

In addition, you will configure network settings, SNMP settings, and bind LUNs.
These tasks are part of the K2 System Configuration application and Storage Utility
procedures later in this chapter. The process of binding LUNs can take a significant
amount of time—as much as eight hours—so you might want to put priority on the
tasks necessary to start the LUN binding process, then catch up with other tasks while
the LUNs are binding.
