Introduction

This document provides information about installing, cabling, configuring,

and localizing your Dell™ PowerVault™ NX1950 storage solution.

The following topics are covered in this document:

• Solution overview

• Cabling your solution

• Connecting to the storage system

• Completing the configuration

• Obtaining more information

Solution Overview

The PowerVault NX1950 storage solution consists of either a single-node

or a multiple-node cluster configuration running Microsoft®Windows®

Unified Data Storage Server 2003 operating system. The solution is

configured from Dell for either a PowerVault MD3000 storage array

(integrated solution) or a Dell|EMC storage array (Dell|EMC SAN gateway

solution). The solution is pre-configured with the operating system and the

required software. Minimal configuration steps are required to complete the

setup of the solution.

NOTE: The default password for your system is storageserver.

NOTE: Throughout this document PowerVault NX1950 storage system refers to

the individual storage unit and PowerVault NX1950 storage solution refers to the

configuration of the storage unit along with the storage arrays.

NOTE: The integrated solution supports two-node clustering only. The storage

area network (SAN) gateway solution supports up to eight nodes in a cluster.

Figure 1-1 illustrates the components of both the integrated solution

and the SAN gateway solution.
