About this Document

This document provides instructions for installing a PowerVault external storage device on

RSASeries 5 and Series 6 (Network) Decoder, Log Decoder, Concentrator, Archiver, and

Hybrid hosts.

The hardware setup instructions in this document are for hardware only; they do not apply to a

specific release of RSA NetWitness Platform software. This document is for new hardware

only. It is not intended for PowerVaults with preexisting data.

The PowerVault installation script instructions in this guide apply only to NetWitness Platform

11.2 and earlier. For NetWitness Platform 11.3 and later, use the hardware connection

information in this guide, but refer to Storage Guide for RSA NetWitness Platform Version 11.3

and later for instructions on how to allocate storage for your hardware.

Caution: If you are adding a previously used PowerVault and would like to preserve the data,

DO NOT follow the instructions in this guide. Contact RSA Customer Support. Running the

script on a previously used PowerVault could erase any existing data.

Hardware Description 6

PowerVault (Dell MD1400) Setup Guide

Capability with RSA NetWitness Platform Series 5 or 6 Hosts

RSA NetWitness Platform Series 5 or 6 hosts are shipped with the software to support a

PowerVault installation. The initial setup of a PowerVault in your network involves these steps:

1. Review site requirements and safety information.

2. Install PowerVault.

Package Contents

Refer to the documentation that is included with the PowerVault. The Dell Storage MD1400

Enclosures Hardware Owner's Manual (http://topics-cdn.dell.com/pdf/storage-md1400-dsms_

owners-manual_en-us.pdf) contains detailed instruction on all the optional setups you can

implement with PowerVault to address the needs of your environment.

Note: The PowerVault comes with four SAS cables. You only need one cable to connect the

PowerVault to a Series 5 or 6 host. Use a cable with the mini-to-mini-SAS connectors to

connect the PowerVault to a Series 5 or 6 host.

Customer Supplied Materials

You do not need to supply any materials.

7 Hardware Description

PowerVault (Dell MD1400) Setup Guide

Rear View of the PowerVault

Key Description

1 SAS ports. Each set of ports has a Primary port and an Expansion port. In each set, the

Primary port is closer to the center of the chassis. There are two rows of ports. In each

row, the ports are labeled 1 to 4 from left to right. Start with the upper row port 1. You

can daisy chain using the rest of the ports if you have multiple PowerVaults connected

to a Series 5 or 6 host.

2 Power Input Connections

Mini-to-Mini SAS Cable Connector

Both connectors are the same on the Mini-to-Mini SAS cable. The following figures shows one

mini connector.

Note: You must insert the cable correctly at both ends with the correct side up. If you have

done this correctly, you hear a click and a green light displays on the rear of the PowerVault

and the rear of the Series 5 or Series 6 host indicating a live connection.

Hardware Description 8

PowerVault (Dell MD1400) Setup Guide

Monitoring PowerVault Through IDRAC

You can monitor PowerVault MD array communication through the Integrated Dell Remote

Access Controller (IDRAC). Refer to the "Monitoring network devices using web interface" and

"Monitoring network devices using RACADM" sections of the Integrated Dell Remote Access

Controller 8/7 Version 2.60.60.60 User’s Guide (https://topics-cdn.dell.com/pdf/idrac7-8-

lifecycle-controller-v2606060_users-guide_en-us.pdf) for information on how to monitor network

devices through IDRAC.

Install PowerVault without Encryption

This topic describes how to install a PowerVault without encryption on RSA Series 5 and Series

6 Decoder, Log Decoder, Concentrator, Archiver, and Hybrid physical hosts.

Prerequisites

Make sure that you have the following required software:

lFor RSA NetWitness Platform 11.1.0.2 and later versions:

rsa-sa-tools-11.2.1.0-1901070555.5.d1d4cb3.el7.noarch.rpm or newer

version of this file, which contains the script you need to configure the storage.

lFor RSA Security Analytics 10.6.6.1 and later versions:

rsa-sa-tools-10.6.6.1-199.5.47209f4.el6.noarch.rpm or newer or newer

version of this file, which contains the script you need to configure the storage. This file is

available on RSA Link at https://community.rsa.com/docs/DOC-100361.

To verify the rsa-sa-tools version, log in as root on the physical hosts and run the following

command:

rpm -qa | grep sa-tools

Results example:

lFor 11.x: rsa-sa-tools-11.2.1.0-1901070555.5.d1d4cb3.el7.noarch.rpm

lFor 10.6.6.x: rsa-sa-tools-10.6.6.1-199.5.47209f4.el6.noarch.rpm

This RPM is updated quarterly. Contact RSA Customer Support to obtain the most recent

version.

lRSA NetWitness Platform - The minimum version is 10.6.6.0 (licensed only). The

recommended versions are 10.6.6.x and 11.1.0.2 and later.

To verify the version, in the Administration Services view (Administration > Services), the

release version is displayed to the right of each service listed. To check the version at the

command line, run the following command:

rpm -qa | grep nw

Results example:

nwconcentrator-10.6.6.2-182.3.0f6d16e.el6.x86_64

Caution: If you are adding a previously used PowerVault and would like to preserve the data,

DO NOT follow the instructions in this guide. Contact RSA Customer Support. Running the

script on a previously used PowerVault could erase any existing data.
