Hitachi VSP E590 Mode d’emploi

Installing your VSP E590 and VSP E790 storage system

Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform E590 and E790 storage systems are designed for self-installation, so you can install and

set up your storage system for the first time without assistance from a Hitachi Vantara representative.

Make sure your data center meets all site preparation requirements before you install the storage system. If you are not

using a Hitachi Universal Rack make sure the electrical specifications of your rack meet the power requirements of the

storage system.

This video shows how to mount and cable your storage system and how to perform the initial setup by using Hitachi

Storage Advisor Embedded.

Step 1: Unpack the storage system

Procedure

1. Inspect all materials for signs of damage. If you see damage, discontinue the installation and contact your Hitachi

Vantara representative.

2. Loosen the band around the cartons and open all boxes. Remove all packing materials, envelopes, and boxes

from the cartons.

3. Retain all packing materials and cartons in case you need to transport or ship the storage system in the future.

4. Check the items you received against the packing list. If any items are missing or damaged, discontinue the

installation and contact your Hitachi Vantara representative.

5. Place the keys for the front bezel in a safe place. You will need them to attach the bezel to the front of the

controllers.

Step 2: Install the storage system into the rack

Mount the controller into the Hitachi Universal Rack or into a 4-post EIA 310-D compliant 19-inch rack with square

mounting holes and rear-facing power distribution units (PDUs).

For information about installing the controller in a third-party rack, see the documentation for that rack.

NoteThe rail kit comes with pins that will fit racks with square or circular shaped holes. Use the correct pin type for your

rack.

Number Item

1 Pin for square holes

2 Pin for round holes

Before you begin

• Make sure the rack is secure and cannot fall over.

• Make sure the rack has one or more PDUs installed.

• Verify that all power cables are removed from the AC power receptacles on the rear of the controller.

• Install the rack stabilizers before mounting the storage system in the rack.

2 Screws

3 Rail

2. Insert pins on the front and back of the rail into the holes on the front and back of the rack and hold in place using

the rail clips. Repeat step for both sides.

3. Install the rear side of the rail with a washer and binding screw. Repeat step for both sides.

Number Item

1 Pin

4. Position the controller so the front faces the front of the rack, and then slide the controller gently onto the rails.

Stop sliding when the mounting flanges on the front of the controller touch the vertical face of the rack.

NoteCheck the rear of the controller chassis to be sure the chassis is fit securely into the stoppers.

Number Item

1 Stopper

5. On the front of the controller chassis, attach the two bind screws and washers to each side of the rack.

Number Item

1 Bind screws

Step 3: Connect the storage system to power

Power for the storage system is provided through two power supplies, one per controller. The input voltage is auto-

adjusting for 200-240 (-11%) VAC, 50-60 Hz power connections.

For best practice, establish power redundancy by routing each power supply to independent PDUs and then routing the

PDUs to separate external power sources on different branch circuits. This arrangement enables the storage system to

continue operating if AC power is lost to one power supply.

NoteMultiple outlets in a PDU or power strip do not constitute an independent electrical source.

Procedure

1. Confirm that all power sources are off.

2. Connect an AC power cable to the power receptacle on the rear of each controller.

3. Route the power cables from each controller to separate PDUs, and then use the pre-installed tie wraps at each

controller power receptacle to secure the power cables.

4. Connect the PDUs to separate external power sources on different branch circuits.

NoteTo prevent the storage system from being turned off by accident, make sure the external power sources are

not controlled by a wall switch.

Step 4: Cable the management console

A customer-supplied computer is used to set up and manage your storage system.

Before you begin

• Obtain a Category 5 or better Ethernet cable.

• Obtain a customer-supplied Windows-based PC that will serve as the management console for setting up the

storage system for the first time and, thereafter, to manage the storage system. The management console must

have a supported web browser: Internet Explore version 11 or later, Chrome, or Firefox.

Procedure

1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the management port on the rear of either controller.

2 LAN1 Connects to maintenance PC

3 LAN2 Connects to user's network

4 Uninterruptible power supply port Not used.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to a management console.

Step 5: Power on the storage system

After connecting the management console to the storage system, you can power on the storage system.

1. Power on the PDUs.

2. Confirm that the top (POWER) LED on the lower left front side of the controller is lit amber, as shown in the

following figure. If the storage system has a drive tray, confirm that the POWER LED on the lower left front side of

the drive tray is lit green.

Item Description

1 POWER LED on the front of the controller

3. If the front bezel is not attached to the front of the controller, attach it as follows:

1. Line up the two tabs on the left side of the controller with the two slots on the left side of the bezel.

2. Connect the bezel by sliding it on and swinging the bezel closed.

3. Use the key to secure the bezel to the front of the unit.

4. On the lower left front side of the controller, press and hold the POWER ON/OFF button until the POWER LED

changes to green (about 3 seconds), and then release the button.

5. Wait for the green READY LED on the front of the controller to go on (approximately 13 minutes).

NoteIf the READY LED does not go on after 30 minutes, contact customer support.

Step 6: Perform the initial setup

Initial setup of the storage system is performed using the Windows-based management console.

Preparing the storage system

Before you begin

Confirm that the Windows-based management console has an Internet connection and an installed version of one of the

following web browsers: Internet Explorer version 11 or later, Chrome, or Firefox.

Hitachi Storage Advisor Embedded. Contact customer support for the default user name and password if missing.

If the login window does not appear, check whether the browser is configured to allow pop-ups. If pop-ups are

allowed, make sure the management console IP address is set to 192.168.0.18 and the subnet mask is set to

255.255.255.0. If the IP address and subnet mask are correct and pop-ups are allowed, but the login window does

not appear, contact customer support.

3. In the top-right corner, click the gear icon, and then select User Administration.

4. Click Support Personnel Group.
