Repeat steps 2 through 4 for the left-hand rail. 6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each additional EXN4000 that you are installing in the rack, making sure to allow 3U of space for each EXN4000. Installing the EXN4000 in the rack Use these instructions to install the EXN4000 in the rack. Before you begin kg ( lbs) svc00167 CAUTION: A fully populated EXN4000 weighs is less than 32 kg (70.5 lbs). Use two people to lift an EXN4000 into a rack. To make the unit lighter and easier to move, remove the power supplies and Input/Output modules (IOMs), noting the location of each component for reinstallation. Do not remove the disk drives or drive blank covers to reduce the weight. After the unit is installed in the rack, reinsert the power supplies and IOMs. Note: Verify the shelf IDs before installing into the rack. All shelf IDs should be correct and sequential in the individual loop(s). If the filer and expansion unit were configured together by manufacturing, these IDs are already set. The label on the front should match the switch on the back. For more information, refer to the EXN4000 Hardware and Service Guide. Installation and setup instructions 3

12 Procedure 1. Ground yourself to the EXN4000 using the grounding leash that came with the system. 2. From the front of the rack, place the expansion unit onto the rails and slide it in until the front mounting bracket of the expansion unit is flush with the frame rails of the rack. 3. At the front of the rack, using four black hex head M5 screws in the H2 and H8 holes, secure the system unit to the rack by threading the screws through the system unit bracket and the rack frame rail into the threaded rail nuts. Tighten the screws using the 7-mm nut driver. 4. From the rear of the rack, use two silver pan head M5 screws to attach the rear of the chassis to the rails, as shown in Figure 5. 1 exn40004 Setting the speed switch Figure 5. Attaching the rear of the chassis Make sure that all expansion unit speed switches are set to the correct position for your application. If you are connecting to an N3700 storage system, the speed switch must be set to the 1Gb position. If you are connecting to any other N series storage system, the speed switch must be set to the 2Gb or 4Gb position, as required by the storage system. Note: If you have both EXN2000s and EXN4000s in a single expansion unit loop, the speed setting for all EXN units must be set to the same speed (1Gb if connecting to an N3700, or 2Gb if connecting to any other N series system). For information about 4Gb support for your filer model, see the or for your N series filer. Use the following diagram for reference: 4

If two or more expansion units are being used continue with the following. Using the grounding kit, fasten the lug at one end of the 0.25m grounding cable to one of the two threaded inserts (adjacent to the power supply receptacles as indicated by a ground symbol) at the back of the expansion unit using the M5 x 0.5-inch screw. If additional expansion units need to be grounded, continue attaching the grounding cables from unit to unit, overlaying the hole on one end of the grounding cable from one to the next.

Grounding expansion units Header Header Dual expansion unit grounding Multiple expansion unit grounding Grounding cable Grounding cables Installing the power cables Make sure all power supply switches of the expansion unit(s) are in the Off position. Connect the power cords to all PSU1 and PSU2 power receptacles for all expansion units that are being installed by holding the wire clamp up, plugging in the power cord, and lowering the clamp to secure the power cord. Connect the power cords to the power sources, making sure that the power supplies on the left side of the system are connected to a separate AC source than the power supplies on the right side of the system. This ensures redundant power. Attention: Do not power on the system at this time. Connecting power to the EXN Use these instructions to connect power to the EXN4000. Procedure 1. Make sure all power supply switches on the storage expansion unit (or units) are in the Off position. 2. Connect the power cords to each EXN4000 storage expansion unit and secure each power cord in place with the power cord retainer. Make sure that the

15 power supply on the left side of the system is connected to a separate AC source than the power supply on the right side of the system. This ensures redundant power. Note: You do not need to ground EXN4000s; grounding is done through the power cords. 3. Turn on power to the EXN4000 storage expansion units and wait for the disk drives to spin up. Setting the storage expansion unit shelf IDs A unique shelf ID is required for each storage expansion unit within the entire storage system. About this task A valid EXN4000 storage expansion unit shelf ID is 0-7. If your storage system has SAS and FC storage expansion units, the storage expansion unit shelf IDs do not need to be unique between the SAS and FC expansion units. (FC expansion unit shelf IDs continue to be unique within each FC loop. SAS expansion unit shelf IDs continue to be unique to all other SAS expansion units in the storage system, including the N3220 or N3240 system's internal SAS shelf ID.) Visually verify that the shelf ID for each storage expansion unit is unique. If not, set the shelf ID as follows. For additional details, see the IBM System Storage EXN4000 Storage Expansion Unit Hardware and Service Guide. Procedure 1. Remove the front bezel if you have not already removed it. 2. Press and hold the storage expansion unit shelf ID button 1 until the first digit blinks. 1 exn Figure 8. Shelf ID button 3. Press the button until the correct number is displayed. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second digit. 5. Press and hold the button until the second number stops blinking. Both numbers start blinking and the operator display panel fault LED illuminates in about five seconds. 6. Power-cycle the EXN4000 to make the new expansion unit shelf ID take effect. 7. Replace the front bezel. Installation and setup instructions 7
