About this book

The EMC VNX5300™and its conﬁgurations

The VNX5300 system has three conﬁgurations--different combinations of hardware, software, and

resulting capabilities. They are Block, File, and Uniﬁed (explained and illustrated below). The

conﬁguration of your system should be indicated on the EMC Unisphere™ license in your order.

For hardware installation and conﬁguration, there is little difference between the File conﬁguration and the

Uniﬁed conﬁguration. As a result, in this book they have been combined.

This installation guide covers both the Block conﬁguration (starting on page 5) and the File/Uniﬁed

conﬁguration (starting on page 39). Please review the contents applicable to your conﬁguration before

starting your installation. This book includes planning worksheets, directions for unpacking, racking, and

cabling the hardware, and then instructions for initializing and conﬁguring the system. It also contains

references for ﬁnding additional resources.

The VNX5300 Block system utilizes a Standby Power Supply and a Disk Processor Enclosure with

dual Storage Processors. The Disk Processor Enclosure can be either a 15-disk enclosure or a 25-disk

enclosure. It can (optionally) include disk-array enclosures for additional storage capacity. Its operating

environment sets up the system for Block storage.

About this book

The VNX5300 File system utilizes the Standby Power Supply and Disk Processor Enclosure and includes

one or two Control Stations and one or two Data Movers. Like the Block system, additional disk-array

enclosures can be included for additional storage. The VNX5300 operating environment sets up its system

for File storage.

As with the Block conﬁguration, the File and Uniﬁed conﬁgurations can include either the 3U 15-disk DPE

(shown) or the 3U 25-disk DPE.

The VNX5300 Uniﬁed system includes the same hardware components as the VNX5300 File system.

They are installed in exactly the same order and in the same positions as the File system. There may be

additional I/O modules in the Uniﬁed system’s storage processors. In addition, the Uniﬁed conﬁguration

includes software that enables both Block and File storage.

The installation of all these conﬁgurations is covered in this manual, although you should only need to

follow the section that applies to your conﬁguration.

However, since the VNX5300 Block and the VNX5300 File can be upgraded to the Uniﬁed system, and

thus allow you to move from either Block storage or File storage to a Uniﬁed system in the future, we urge

you to plan the installation carefully. If you want to move from a Block system to a Uniﬁed system, for

example, reserve 4U of cabinet space above the DPE for the additional hardware components. Moving

from a File system to a Uniﬁed system does not require any additional cabinet space unless additional

drives and DAEs are to be added for providing block storage.

Before you begin

VNX Block Conﬁguration

Welcome

If you do not already have a Product Support account, go to https://support.emc.com/products/

VNX5300 and set one up immediately. You will need a support account for access to the latest

documentation and troubleshooting information, online chat, installation/maintenance videos, and

utilities and wizards.

Software upgrade

If you bought a software maintenance contract, you are entitled to software upgrades only

after the installation and registration have successfully completed.

Site preparation

Make sure your site includes the following resource requirements:

AC power

• For high availability: At least two 110 or 240 V AC circuits are required.

Network connections

• Two 1-Gigabit Ethernet management connections

• Cabinet vertical space 3U (5.25 inches, 13.33 cm) for disk processor enclosure (DPE)

and 1U for the standby power supply (SPS). A total of 4U minimum vertical space is required,

plus space for any DAEs.

• Space for each optional DAE

A Windows-based computer to initialize the VNX5300 Block system with:

• At least 100 MB of free space

• Connection on same physical subnet as your VNX5300 system

• SMTP server network connection to the VNX5300 and the management host (recommended)

Planning Worksheet

With your network administrator, determine the IP addresses and network parameters you plan to use

with the storage system, and record the information on the following worksheet. You must have this

information to set up and initialize the system.

You manage the storage system through a dedicated LAN port on each storage processor. These ports

must share a subnet with the host you use to initialize the system. After initialization, any host on the

same network and with a supported browser can manage the system through the management ports.

In a server with multiple NICs or iSCSI HBAs that are connected directly to the storage system, or that

are on a dedicated iSCSI network, each initiator port must be on a separate subnet.

Record network information for your system on the worksheet on the next pages. Your network

administrator should provide most of this information. For more information, refer to your conﬁguration

planning guide.
