Preparing to Install a Storage Tray
Using two people remove the new tray from the shipping container.
Remove the backing strip from the EMI gasket and apply it to the tray directly behind the drive bezel.
Note: This applies to cabinet installation only.
From the front of the cabinet, remove the appropriate number of filler panels to accomodate the new tray.
If the tray is not being added to a cabinet proceed to, Setting the Array Module Tray ID.
Attaching the Rails to a Sun Expansion, Sun Fire or a Sun 900/1000 Cabinet
Use a Phillips (#2) screwdriver to loosen the side-rail screws and adjust each rail to fit inside the cabinet.
Place the rails inside the cabinet and insert the front two 8-32 screws for each rail.
For the lower mounting holes, insert four 8-32 screws in each rail.
Tighten all screws.
Use a Phillips (#2) screwdriver to remove the two Phillips screws and the rail extension.
Insert two 10-32 screws in the front and rear mounting holes for both rails.
a) View the screw hole location illustration.
Place the two elongated holes on the rail over the screws that were installed in the previous step.
Insert two 10-32 screws in the holes directly below the elongated holes for each rail.
Tighten all screws.
Use a Phillips (#2) screwdriver to loosen the rail extension screws to allow for adjustment of each rail inside the cabinet.
Place the rails inside the cabinet and align them with the marks on the front of the cabinet.
Secure each rail with two M6 screws to the front of the cabinet.
From the rear of the cabinet, adjust the length of each rail to fit the cabinet.
Secure each rail with two M6 screws to the rear of the cabinet.
Tighten the adjusting screws.
Tighten all screws.
Installing a Storage Tray in a Cabinet
Note: An FC expansion tray must contain all FC disk drives and a SATA expansion tray must contain all SATA disk drives.
From the front of the tray, unsnap and remove the left and right end caps to gain access to the screw mounting holes.
Using two people carefully lift and slide the tray into the cabinet.
When securing the tray to a Sun Expansion or Sun Fire Cabinet use a #2 Phillips screwdriver and four 8-32 screws. If securing the tray to a Sun 900/1000 Cabinet use a #3 Phillips screwdriver and four 10-32 screws.
Replace the end caps to cover the front mounting screws.
From the rear of the cabinet, insert and tighten two 8-32 screws (one per rail) to secure the rear of the array module.
Setting the Storage Tray ID
From the rear of the cabinet, locate the Tray ID switch in between the two power supplies.

Locate the controller "A" and controller "B" expansion ports at the rear of the controller tray.
a) Locate the FC-AL ports (IN and OUT) at the rear of the expansion trays.
Connect one copper FC cable from the controller "A" expansion port of controller tray 0, to the IOM "A" port 1 of expansion tray 1.
a) Connect one copper FC cable from the IOM "A" expansion port 2 of expansion tray 1, to the IOM "A" port 1 of expansion tray 2.
b) Connect one copper FC cable from the controller "B" expansion port of controller tray 0, to the IOM "B" port 2 of expansion tray 2.
c) Connect one copper FC cable from the IOM "B" port 2 of expansion tray 1, to the IOM "B" port 1 of expansion tray 2.
Locate the controller "A" and controller "B" expansion ports at the rear of the controller tray.
a) Locate the FC-AL ports (IN and OUT) at the rear of the expansion trays.
Connect one copper FC cable from the controller "A" expansion port of controller tray 0, to the IOM "A" port 1 of expansion tray 1.
a) Connect one copper FC cable from the IOM "A" expansion port 2 of expansion tray 1, to the IOM "A" port 1 of expansion tray 2.
b) Connect one copper FC cable from the IOM "A" expansion port 2 of expansion tray 2, to the IOM "A" port 1 of expansion tray 3.
c) Connect one copper FC cable from the controller "B" expansion port of controller tray 0, to the IOM "B" port 2 of expansion tray 3.
d) Connect one copper FC cable from the IOM "B" port 2 of expansion tray 1, to the IOM "B" port 1 of expansion tray 2.
e) Connect one copper FC cable from the IOM "B" port 2 of expansion tray 2, to the IOM "B" port 1 of expansion tray 3.
Locate the controller "A" and controller "B" expansion ports at the rear of the controller trays.
a) Locate the FC-AL ports (IN and OUT) at the rear of the expansion tray.
Connect one copper FC cable from the controller "A" expansion port of controller tray 0, to the IOM "A" port 1 of expansion tray 1.
a) Connect one copper FC cable from the IOM "A" expansion port 2 of expansion tray 1, to the IOM "A" port 1 of expansion tray 2.
b) Connect one copper FC cable from the IOM "A" expansion port 2 of expansion tray 2, to the IOM "A" port 1 of expansion tray 3.
c) Continue to connect one FC cable from the IOM "A" expansion port 2 of the next expansion tray, to the IOM "A" port 1 of the expansion tray directly above until expansion tray 7 has been connected.
d) Connect one copper FC cable from the controller "B" expansion port of controller tray 0, to the IOM "B" port 2 of expansion tray 7.
e) Connect one copper FC cable from the IOM "B" port 2 of expansion tray 1, to the IOM "B" port 1 of expansion tray 2.

Connecting the Ethernet Cables
From the rear of the controller tray, locate the Ethernet connector ports for controller "A" and controller "B".
Connect an Ethernet cable to each controller.
Connect the other end to the site LAN.
Connecting the Host Cables
From the rear of the controller tray, locate the Host 1 and Host 2 connector ports for controller "A" and controller "B".
Connect a host FC cable to each controller.
Connect the other end to the appropriate switch or server.
Powering Up the New Configuration
For the new controller tray that was added make sure that the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server has been set up with the corresponding MAC address for the controller cards or I/O modules before turning on the power.
Connect the power cables to both power supplies in the new tray(s).
Press the power switches on the power supplies for any expansion tray(s) first and the controller tray to On last.
It will take several minutes for all of the trays to become completely ready. The trays will be ready when only the Green LEDs are on solid.
Updating the Inventory
Disable the reserve CSM/CEM function.
a) Select the Release button.
The new controller tray will need to be discovered to update the inventory.
b) At the Discovery window, enter the IP address of the new array module into the "IP List" input box.
c) Select the "Start Discovery" botton to execute the discovery.
After the Discovery has completed the Agent will need to be run.
b) At the Agent Summary window, select the box under the Add Agent column for the appropriate host that the new tray is attached to.
c) Select the "Run Agent" button to execute the Agent.
After the Agent has executed, the Device Details (array module) will need to be checked to confirm the State is "Enabled" and the Status is "OK" for all of the FRUs.
b) At the Devices window, select the appropriate name of the new array module from under the Name column.
c) At the Device Details window, select the FRUs link at the left top of the screen or scroll down to the FRUs section.
d) From the left column under FRUs, select each FRU type to verify that the State is "Enabled" and the Status is "OK".
The new storage should now be ready for customer turnover.
