For complete information about your VTrak E310f/s subsystem, see the VTrak

M610i, M310i, M210i Product Manual on the CD.

Step 1: Unpacking the VTrak

The VTrak box contains the following items:

•VTrakUnit

•QuickStartGuide

• Null Modem Cable

• Left and right center-mount

brackets

• Left and right mounting rails

• Screws for disk drives

(36 for M210i; 52 for M310i; 70 for

M610i; including 4 spares)

• 1.5m (4.9 ft) Power cords (2 for US

and 2 for Europe)

• CD with SNMP files, Product

Manual and Quick Start Guide

Warning

The electronic components within the VTrak disk array are

sensitive to damage from Electro-Static Discharge (ESD).

Observe appropriate precautions at all times when handling the

VTrak or its subassemblies.

Important

Use the following categories of network cables with VTrak:

• Cat 6, preferred

• Cat 5E, minimum

Step 2: Mounting VTrak in a Rack

The M610i is shown on this page. The M310i and M210i are shown on page 7.

Mounting the VTrak M610i in a Rack

The M610i subsystem installs to the rack using the supplied mounting rails. You

can also use your existing rails.

Figure 5. VTrak M610i mounted in a rack with the supplied rails

To install the M610i subsystem into a rack with the supplied mounting rails:

1. Check the fit of the mounting rails in your rack system. See Figure 6.

2. Adjust the length of the mounting rails as needed.

Cautions

• At least two persons are required to safely lift, place, and

attach the VTrak subsystem into a rack system.

• Do not lift or move the VTrak subsystem by the handles,

power supplies or the controller units. Hold the subsystem

itself.

• Do not install the VTrak subsystem into a rack without rails to

support the subsystem.

• Only a qualified electrician who is familiar with the installation

procedure should mount and install the VTrak subsystem.

• Be sure all switches are OFF before installing the VTrak

subsystem or exchanging components.

3. Attach the mounting rail assemblies to the outside of the rack posts, using

the attaching screws from your rack system.

Be sure the support is on the bottom facing inward.

4. Square the rail assemblies in the rack.

5. Tighten the adjustment screws and the attaching screws.

6. Place the VTrak subsystem onto the rails.

7. Secure the VTrak subsystem to the rack through each handle, using the

attaching screws from your rack system.

Step 2: Mounting VTrak in a Rack

Mounting VTrak M310i or M210i in a Rack

The VTrak M310i or M210i subsystem installs to the rack using the supplied

mounting rails. You can also use your existing rails.

Figure 7. Rackmounted VTrak M310i (M210i is similar)

To install the M310i or M210i subsystem into a rack with the supplied mounting

rails:

1. Check the fit of the mounting rails in your rack system. See Figure 9.

2. Slide the plates out of the mounting rails.

3. Attach one plate to each side of the VTrak subsystem.

Line-up the six holes in the plate with the corresponding holes in the

subsystem. Attach each plate with six screws (included). See Figure 8.

Cautions

• At least two persons are required to safely lift, place, and

attach the VTrak subsystem into a rack system.

• Do not lift or move the VTrak subsystem by the handles,

power supplies or the controller units. Hold the subsystem

itself.

• Do not install the VTrak subsystem into a rack without rails to

support the subsystem.

• Only a qualified electrician who is familiar with the installation

procedure should mount and install the VTrak subsystem.

• Be sure all switches are OFF before installing the VTrak

subsystem or exchanging components.

4. Slide one of the rails over the plate on one side of the subsystem.

The rail is designed to slide freely over the plate.

5. Attach a flange to each end of the rail, with the rail on the opposite side of the

flange from the two-hole bracket.

6. Install the rail adjustment screws (included) through the flange into the rail.

There are four screws for each flange. See Figure 9.

7. Place the subsystem with mounting rails into your rack system.

8. Attach the mounting rail assemblies to the outside of the rack posts, using

the attaching screws from your rack system.

9. Square the rail assemblies in the rack.

10. Tighten the adjustment screws and the attaching screws.

11. Place the VTrak subsystem onto the rails.

12. Secure the VTrak subsystem to the rack through each handle, using the

attaching screws from your rack system.

Step 3: Installing Disk Drives

You can populate the VTrak with 3.5-inch, 1.5 Gb/s or 3.0 Gb/s SATA drives. For

optimal performance, install physical drives of the same model and capacity. The

drives’ matched performance allows the logical drive to function better as a single

drive. The table below shows the number of drives required for each RAID level.

Drive Slot Numbering

You can install any suitable disk drive into any slot in the subsystem. The diagram

below shows how VTrak’s drive slots are numbered. Slot numbering is reflected

in the WebPAM PROe and CLU user interfaces.

Figure 10.VTrak M610i drive slot numbering

Level Number of Drives Level Number of Drives

RAID 0 1 or more RAID 6 4 to 16

RAID 1 2 only RAID 10 4 or more*

RAID 1E 2 or more RAID 50 6 or more

RAID 5 3 to 16

* Must be an even number of drives.

Note

Unlike other VTrak models, the M610i, M310i, and M210i do not

support Parallel ATA disk drives. There is no PATA-to-SATA

adapter available for these models.
