About this document

This document describes how to install an M6612 or M6625 disk enclosure into a rack as part of an

P6300/P6500 EVA storage array. The disk enclosure installation may be performed while the array

is in operation. You can only add one disk enclosure online at a time.

These instructions do not include adding an expansion rack. For expansion rack information, see the

HP P6300/P6500 Enteprise Virtual Array Expansion Rack Reference Guide.

If you print this document, HP recommends that you print it in color, if possible. If color printing is not

available, print it in grayscale.

Before you begin

Read the following warnings and cautions before installing the disk enclosure.

WARNING! Make sure that the rack is sufficiently stable. If provided, lower the rack leveler feet and

make sure any required stabilizers are installed. If provided, extend the rack anti-tip device. Failure

to extend the anti-tip device could result in personal injury or damage if the rack tips over.

CAUTION:

•Make sure that the rack and all equipment mounted in the rack have a reliable ground connection.

Verify that the total current of the rack components does not exceed the current rating of the power

distribution unit or the power distribution modules.

•Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. User proper anti-static protection. For additional

information, see the documentation that shipped with your system.

Kit contents

•Two rack rails (left and right)

•Mounting hardware for square and round hole racks

•Two tie wraps

•Two power cords

•Two SAS mini-cables

Attaching the rails

1. Position left and right rack rails at the desired 'U' position in the rack, adjust the rails to fit the

rack as needed (1, Figure 1 (page 4)).

2. Secure rack rails to the front and back rack columns using screws. Make sure that the shoulders

of the screws fit inside the square or round holes of the rack (2, Figure 1).

NOTE: If installing rails in a square hole rack, use larger-sized shoulder screws and pins for

mounting. If installing rails in a round hole rack, use smaller-sized shoulder screws and pins for

mounting.

Installing the disk enclosure

1. Slide the device into position on the rails (1, Figure 2 (page 5)) and then tighten the thumbscrews

(2) on the front of the device to secure the device to the rack.

Figure 2 Secure disk enclosure to rack

NOTE: The rear ends of the rails have a CTO bracket that must engage the device chassis to

secure the rear of the chassis to the rails.

3. Populate the enclosure with available disk drives (not included with this kit). Start with the lowest

number in for the M6625, and Figure 7 (page 6) for the M6612, and continue in order until

you have inserted the desired number. If installing multiple disk enclosures, balance the quantity

and sizes of disk drives between the enclosures as evenly as possible.

Cabling the enclosure

Two methods are described for cabling a new disk enclosure. The online method allows a disk enclosure

to be added to a powered, operational array. The offline method describes cabling an array that has

been powered down. The offline method is preferred if downtime is available.

Consider the following guidelines when connecting disk enclosures to the P6300/P6500 EVA:

•The power cords are supplied in two different colors should you decide to use the colors to denote

sides of the rack. For example, you can locate all gray power cords on the left side of the rack,

and all black power cords on the right side.

•The P6300 EVA supports a maximum of 10 disk enclosures. The P6500 supports a maximum of

20 disk enclosures. Due to space constraints, the diagrams in this document show a minimum

number of disk enclosures. However, you can follow these instructions and diagrams for any

configuration.

•In general, when cabling, the P1 port on the I/O module receives input from another I/O module

or controller, and the P2 port is used for output to another I/O module or controller.

•Always connect cables to the same colored port (green port to green port, red port to red port).

The cables shown in this document are colored green and red to easily identify connections.

•In these diagrams, the dashed lines indicate how the cabling changes when a disk enclosure is

added.

•In the offline procedure, I/O module A is cabled first and then I/O module B is cabled. However,

either I/O module can be cabled first when power is not applied to the array.

•The P6300 EVA is only available in a multiproduct rack configuration, which is designed to

maximize space (controller and disk enclosures at the bottom of the rack and non-storage hardware

above the enclosures). You may need to reconfigure rack space before adding disk enclosures.

In the multiproduct configuration, disk enclosures are added above the controller enclosure.

Cabling the enclosure 7

Cabling the P6300 EVA enclosure while offline

1. Power down the array.

Figure 9 (page 8) shows the cabling for an array with one P6300 EVA controller enclosure and

two disk enclosures.

Figure 9 Cabling for preexisting P6300 EVA

2. Figure 10 (page 8) shows the cabling when two disk enclosures are added to the array. Unplug

the cable between DP-B on controller 1 and I/O module B port P2 of the existing disk enclosure

at the bottom of the rack. Connect the cable from DP-B on controller 1 to I/O module B port P2

on the newly installed disk enclosure closest to the controller enclosure (1, Figure 10 (page 8)).

3. Using a cable provided in your kit, plug one end into the P1 port on I/O module B of the newly

installed disk enclosure closest to the controller enclosure and plug the other end into the P2 port

of I/O module B of the other newly installed disk enclosure above it (2, Figure 10).

4. Using a long cable, plug one end into the P2 port of I/O module B on the existing disk enclosure

at the bottom of the rack and plug the other end into the P1 port of I/O module B on the topmost,

newly installed disk enclosure (3, Figure 10).

5. Unplug the cable between DP-A on controller 2 and I/O module A P2 on the existing disk enclosure

at the bottom of the rack. Using a long cable, connect the P1 port of I/O module A on the topmost,

newly installed disk enclosure to the P2 port of I/O module A on the existing disk enclosure at

the bottom of the rack (4, Figure 10).

6. Connect the P2 port of I/O module A on the topmost, newly installed disk enclosure to the P1

port of I/O module A on the other newly installed disk enclosure directly below it (5, Figure 10).

7. Plug one end of a cable into DP-A of controller 2 and plug the other end into the P2 port of I/O

module A on the newly installed disk enclosure directly above the controller enclosure (6,

Figure 10).

8. Using a power cord provided in your kit, plug one end into a disk enclosure power supply and

the other end into a rack power distribution module.

9. With the remaining power cord, connect the other power supply to a rack power distribution

module.

10. Press the Power On/Standby button on the power UID bezel (located at the rear of the disk

enclosure) and hold it down long enough to power up the installed enclosure.

11. Power on any other disk enclosures attached to the array and visually check that the enclosures

power on without errors. Wait at least one minute after all the enclosures are powered on for the

drives to spin up and stabilize.

12. Power on the controller enclosure by pressing the power button on the power UID bezel until the

enclosure responds (it may take up to 10 seconds for the controller enclosure to power on). Wait

five minutes for the array to stabilize.

Cabling the enclosure 9

13. Verify the status of the newly installed disk enclosure:

a. Open HP P6000 Command View.

b. Navigate to the newly added disk enclosure within the Hardware folder in the navigation

pane and select it. The Disk Enclosure Properties window opens.

c. Select the I/O tab and verify that the Operational state for both ports on both I/O modules

is Good.

NOTE: If the newly added disk enclosure is at a different I/O module firmware version,

the overall operational state will display Loading firmware. The state will remain as Loading

firmware until the other I/O module is connected. At that point, the I/O module firmware

will be upgraded.

14. Verify that I/O modules A and B on the added enclosure have been assigned a unique (but not

necessarily sequential) index number.

Cabling the P6300 EVA enclosure while online

Figure 9 (page 8) shows the cabling for an array with one P6300 EVA controller enclosure and two

disk enclosures.

NOTE: You can only add one disk enclosure online at a time.

1. Using a power cord provided in your kit, plug one end into the disk enclosure power supply and

the other end into a rack power distribution module. You will briefly hear a rush of air as power

is applied, and the LEDs on the power UID flash. The power UID standby switch LED remains

amber.

2. With the remaining power cord, connect the other power supply to a rack power distribution

module. The power UID power switch LED turns green. The I/O module index number will likely

display 00, but if not, ignore the index number at this time.

3. Figure 11 (page 11) shows the cabling when one disk enclosure is added to the array. Unplug

the cable between DP-B on controller 2 and I/O module B port 1 on the nearest disk enclosure

below the controller enclosure. Connect the cable from DP-B on controller 2 to I/O module B port

P1 on the newly installed disk enclosure (1, Figure 11 (page 11)).
