Note - In an array shipped with less than 4 drives, each empty slot in the array contains an air management sled to correctly handle the air flow and heat. Each drive slot requires either a disk drive or an air management sled.




caution icon Caution - If you replace a disk drive, the replacement disk drive must have the same or greater capacity than the disk drive that is being replaced. You can mix capacity in the same enclosure, but not spindle speed (RPM). For example, you can use 73-Gbyte and 146-Gbyte drives with no performance problems if both are 10K RPM drives. Violating this configuration guideline leads to poor performance.If you are adding a new disk drive, these same configuration guidelines apply.



Supported Cables

TABLE 7 lists the supported SCSI cables. Cables may be ordered using the marketing part numbers in TABLE 7.



Note - The manufacturing part numbers supplied in the third column of TABLE 7 can be checked against the manufacturing part numbers stamped on other cables that you might have in stock to confirm that they are supported.

Note - When you attach the provided SCSI bus cables to the Sun StorEdge 3120 SCSI array, it is important to tighten the cable jack screws with six full clockwise turns prior to powering up the array, to ensure proper operation.


Network Connectivity Standard Practices

It is extremely important for the proper operation and reliability of the equipment that all network connectivity adhere to Ethernet and facility wiring standards IEEE 802.3 and EIA/TIA 568B. Make sure that the cabling and patch cords for your facilities are up to these specifications, and protect the cables from excessive stress and damage. The best practice, and the one that is recommended by all facilities wiring standards, is to test your structured cable system end-to-end with a quality cable test set. Adherence to these practices will help eliminate almost all connectivity issues.

Other related standards are ISO/IEC IS 11801 (International), Cenelec EN 50173 (Europe), CSA T529 (Canada), and SAA/SNZ HB27:1996 (Australia and New Zealand).


Bootability

For embedded controllers and (X)4422A HBAs, booting from the array requires no special procedures.

To boot a host through a Sun StorEdge PCI Dual Ultra3 SCSI host bus adapter, follow the procedures in the “Enabling a Host to Boot Through the Host Adapter” chapter in the Sun StorEdge PCI Dual Ultra3 SCSI Host Adapter Installation Guide, part number 816-2156.

An online copy of the installation guide is available from the following web site:

http://www.sun.com/products-n-solutions/hardware/docs/ Network_Storage_Solutions/Adapters/index.html

For a current list of patches for this host bus adapter, including driver patches, refer to:

http://www.sun.com/sunsolve/

Search for “Sun StorEdge PCI Dual Ultra3 SCSI Host Adapter” in the “Search SunSolve” search area.



Note - Bootability is not supported for this HBA on servers running the Solaris 10 operating system.



Required Patches

The Solaris 9 or Solaris 10 Recommended Patch Cluster is required to use Sun StorEdge Configuration Service and Diagnostic Reporter software. Make sure the Solaris Recommended Patch Cluster is installed on a Solaris host before connecting the host to the array.

If a Sun StorEdge PCI Dual Ultra3 SCSI Host Adapter, X6758A, is used to connect the Sun StorEdge 3120 array, the bus driver must also be updated. The updated bus driver is available in the following patches, or later versions:


Installing Required Solaris Patches

a. If asked if you want to restore the agent configuration, type y. (If you type n, you will need to re-enable the managing servers.)


The previous configuration was saved. Do you want to restore the configuration [y,n,?,q]: y

b. To continue with the installation, type y and press Return.


Do you want to continue with the installation [y,n,?] y

After the package is installed, the following message is displayed, indicating it was installed successfully.


Installation of <SUNWsscs> was successful.

The Sun StorEdge Configuration Service components are installed in the following directories:

The Sun StorEdge Diagnostic Reporter components are installed in the following directories:

The CLI is installed in /opt/SUNWsscs/sbin/sccli.

5. If you are using Sun StorEdge Configuration Service and Diagnostic Reporter to manage and monitor the storage, the following additional steps are required.

a. You must set passwords for all Sun StorEdge Configuration Service users.



Note - User passwords are deleted when Sun StorEdge Configuration Service is uninstalled. Even if you had a previously saved configuration, you still have to reenter the ssmon, ssadmin, and ssconfig passwords.


b. Before starting the Sun StorEdge Configuration Service console, you must run the following command to specify the web browser to access online help.


/opt/SUNWsscs/sscsconsole/config_sscon

c. The Sun StorEdge Configuration Service agent and the Sun StorEdge Diagnostic Reporter agent (daemon) have been installed but are not configured to start at boot time by default. To enable the Sun StorEdge Configuration Service agent to start automatically when the system boots, and to start it now, type:


/etc/init.d/ssagent enable start

d. To enable the Sun StorEdge Diagnostic Reporter to start automatically when the system boots, and to start it now, type:


/etc/init.d/ssdgrptd enable start

6. Edit /kernel/drv/sd.conf if LUNs other than LUN 0 are mapped from the array to the host and an onboard HBA for Sun hosts or third-party HBAs are used for connecting the device.

Add lines for LUNs as appropriate for your configuration. LUNs can be numbered from 0-31. Generally, do not add more LUN definitions than you actually plan to have, since doing so increases the time needed to scan each SCSI bus. For information about modifying the sd.conf file, refer to the Sun StorEdge 3000 Family Installation, Operation, and Service Manual for your SCSI array.

7. If the sd.conf file has been edited, perform a reconfiguration reboot.

If the sd.conf file has not been edited, you do not have to perform a reconfiguration reboot and the agent starts automatically.


Downloading Disk Drive Firmware

To download disk drive firmware, use the appropriate Sun disk drive firmware patch and instructions. Do not use the Sun StorEdge CLI or Sun StorEdge Configuration Service to download disk drive firmware.



Note - Disk drive firmware is provided through Sun disk firmware patches, which include the required download utility. Sun disk firmware patches are separate from Sun StorEdge 3000 family firmware patches.
