Chapter 9 Installing the Level 20 Storage System
If the RAID chassis has two controllers, you can press the power button on either
controller. You do not need to press both power buttons.
Pressing the power button on a controller also powers on any connected Expansion
chassis. There are no power buttons on Expansion chassis.
3. Release the power button when the Power Good LED on the power supply is
illuminated. This takes 1-3 seconds.
4. Wait while the primary RAID chassis performs self-test and initialization. This
takes about four minutes. While this is taking place, the RDY LED is illuminated
with a steady on light.
5. Watch for the RDY LED to begin blinking at one second intervals. The LED might
turn off and back on two times before starting the one second blink pattern. When
the RDY LED is blinking at one second intervals, the self-test and initialization is
complete and the chassis is ready for use.
Your preparations for L20 RAID storage are now complete.
Preparing K2 Storage System clients
Any devices that function as iSCSI clients to the K2 Storage System must be prepared
with the following requirements:
• One or more connections to the control network.
• A static IP address for the control network.
• For a non-redundant K2 Storage System, one connection to the media (iSCSI)
network.
Additional steps that are required for Aurora Edits include the following:
• Implement Aurora Edit security features.
• Install SNFS software and K2 software.
For more information, refer to the Aurora Edit Installation and Configuration Guide.
For more information refer to the K2 Media Client System Guide.
K2 configuration and NetCentral
Before you begin using the K2 System Configuration application to configure the
storage system, you should set up the NetCentral system according to the following
requirements:
• NetCentral installed — NetCentral server software must be installed on a
NetCentral server PC. This can be the K2 configuration Control Point PC or
another PC that has network communication with the K2 Storage System control
network.
• Device providers installed — A device provider must be installed on the NetCentral
server PC for each type of device in the K2 Storage System. For a Level 20 storage
system, the following device providers must be installed:
• Control point PC device provider — This is the Windows monitoring device
provider.
