You can install your storage array in several different configurations: Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-2 are two examples.
Figure 2-1 Direct-Connect Configuration
Figure 2-2 Switch Configuration
Use this procedure to install a storage array in a new cluster. To add a storage array to an existing cluster, use the procedure in How to Add Storage Arrays to an Existing Cluster.
This procedure relies on the following assumptions:
You have not installed the Oracle Solaris Operating System.
You have not installed the Oracle Solaris Cluster software.
Your cluster has not been established.
You have enough host adapters to connect the nodes and the storage array to the service processor panel.
If you need to install host adapters, see How to Replace a Host Adapter. When this procedure asks you to replace the failed host adapter, simply install the new host adapter instead.
For instructions, see the Sun StorEdge 6130 Array Getting Started Guide. For a list of StorEdge documentation, see Table P-2.
For the procedure about how to install an FC switch, see the documentation that shipped with your FC switch hardware.

To continue with Oracle Solaris Cluster software installation tasks, see your Oracle Solaris Cluster software installation documentation.
Use this procedure to add a new storage array to a running cluster. To install a new storage array in a Oracle Solaris Cluster configuration that is not running, use the procedure in How to Install Storage Arrays in a New Cluster.
Before You Begin
This procedure relies on the following assumptions:
(Veritas Volume Manager Only) You have a version of Veritas Volume Manager that includes Array Support Library (ASL). For more information on this requirement, see Requirements.
You have enough host adapters to connect the nodes and the storage array to the service processor panel.
If you need to install host adapters, see How to Replace a Host Adapter. When this procedure asks you to replace the failed host adapter, simply install the new host adapter instead.
You do not need to install a new node in your cluster.
If you need to add a node to your cluster, see your Oracle Solaris Cluster system administration documentation. Ensure that you install the required Oracle Solaris patches for storage array support.
For instructions, see the Sun StorEdge 6130 Array Getting Started Guide. For a list of StorEdge documentation, see Table P-2.
For the procedure about how to install an FC switch, see the documentation that shipped with your FC switch hardware.
