About This Guide
Use this document to install the E2600 controller-drive tray and all attached drive trays for your configuration. To
access these products, go to the NetApp Support Site at support.netapp.com.

E2600 Controller-Drive Tray and Related Drive Trays - 1

Registering Your E-Series System
Before you begin the installation, register your E-Series storage system at support.netapp.com using the serial
number for the integrated controller-drive tray enclosure. Use of any other component serial numbers (such as
those for individual controllers or drive tray enclosures) will not enable correct registration for the storage array. The
enclosure serial number is located on two places on each enclosure: the large UL label attached to the top of an
enclosure, and a silver label attached to the front of the enclosure, either on the bottom lip or the right ear. In both of
these places, the enclosure serial number is identified by the text "Serial" or "S/N."

Record the serial number of the integrated controller-drive tray enclosure for later use. This serial number is required
to initiated any support request for your system.

If your storage array includes drive trays as well as a controller-drive tray, you must verify that you install the
controllers in the controller-drive tray enclosure, and not in any of the expansion drive tray enclosures. Enclosures
for controller-drive trays and expansion drive trays look identical, so you must refer to the enclosure part numbers in
your Sales Order to identify the controller-drive tray enclosure. (Controller-drive tray enclosures do not include a "QS"
designator in their part numbers. Drive tray enclosure part numbers do include a "QS" designator. To enable proper
support registration, do not install controllers in drive tray enclosures.)

Things to Know – SFP Transceivers, Fiber-Optic Cables, Copper

Cables, and SAS Cables
The figures in this topic show the fiber-optic cables, copper cables, SFP transceivers and SAS cables with a
SFF-8088 Connector.

NOTE Your SFP transceivers and cables might look slightly different from the ones shown. The differences do not
affect the performance of the SFP transceivers.

The controller-drive tray supports SAS, Fibre Channel (FC), and iSCSI host connections and SAS drive connections.
FC host connections can operate at 8 Gb/s or at a lower data rate. Ports for 8-Gb/s Fibre Channel host connections
require SFP transceivers designed for this data rate. These SFP transceivers look similar to other SFP transceivers
but are not compatible with other types of connections. SFP transceivers for 1-Gb/s iSCSI and 10-Gb/s iSCSI
connections have a different physical interface for the cable and are not compatible with other types of connections.

NOTE To maintain a uniform airflow across all drive drawers, the controller-drive tray must be configured with
a minimum of 20 drives. Slots 1, 4, 7, and 10 in the front row of each of the five drive drawers must have a drive
installed in these locations.

ATTENTION Possible data loss –If you remove all Fibre Channel Host Interface Cards (HICs) from a storage array
and replace them with HICs of a different network protocol (such as iSCSI or SAS), you must first deactivate the
Remote Volume Mirroring (RVM) premium feature if it is running. If you do not deactivate RVM before removing the
Fibre Channel HICs, your system will lose data access and data loss may occur.

Step 3 – Installing the Host Bus Adapters for the E2600
Controller-Drive Tray

Key Terms
Things to Know – Host Bus Adapters and Ethernet Network Interface Cards
Procedure – Installing Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters

Key Terms

HBA host port

host bus adapter (HBA)
HBA host port world wide name (WWN)

HBA host port

The physical and electrical interface on the host bus adapter (HBA) that provides for the connection between the host
and the controller. Most HBAs will have either one or two host ports. The HBA has a unique World Wide Identifier
(WWID) and each HBA host port has a unique WWID.

host bus adapter (HBA)

A physical board that resides in the host. The HBA provides for data transfer between the host and the controllers in
the storage array over the I/O host interface. Each HBA contains one or more physical ports.

HBA host port world wide name (WWN)

A 16-character unique name that is provided for each port on the host bus adapter (HBA).

Things to Know – Host Bus Adapters and Ethernet Network

Interface Cards
The E2600 controller-drive tray supports dual 6-Gb/s SAS host connections and optional host interface cards
(HICs) for dual 6-Gb/s SAS, four 1-Gb/s iSCSI, two 10-Gb iSCSI, and four 8-Gb/s FC connections. The
connections on a host must match the type (SAS HBAs for SAS, FC HBAs for FC, or iSCSI HBAs or Ethernet
network interface cards [NICs] for iSCSI) of the HICs to which you connect them. For the best performance, HBAs
for SAS and FC connections should support the highest data rate supported by the HICs to which they connect.
For maximum hardware redundancy, you must install a minimum of two HBAs (for either SAS or FC host
connections) or two NICs or iSCSI HBAs (for iSCSI host connections) in each host. Using both ports of a dual-port
HBA or a dual-port NIC provides two paths to the storage array but does not ensure redundancy if an HBA or a
NIC fails.
Most of the HBAs, as shipped from the vendor, require updated firmware and software drivers to work correctly
with the storage array. For information about the updates, refer to the website of the storage vendor to obtain
certified versions.

E2600 Controller-Drive Tray and Related Drive Trays - 29

 Consult your Technical Support Representative to obtain information about the supported models of the HBAs and
their requirements to make sure you have an acceptable configuration.

Procedure – Installing Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters

1. Consult with your Technical Support Representative to verify that you have an acceptable configuration.
Before installing a Host Bus Adapter (HBA) you must have the following information:
The latest hardware compatibility information
The models of the HBAs that are supported
The firmware requirements and the software requirements for the HBAs
2. Install your HBA, including the appropriate version of the firmware, according to the vendor documentation.
If your operating system is either Windows Server 2008 Server Core, or Windows 2012 Sever, you might have
additional installation requirements. Refer to the Microsoft Developers Network (MSDN) for more information about
Windows Server 2008 Server Core. You can access these resources from www.microsoft.com.
3. Install the latest version of the firmware/driver for the HBA. You can find the latest version of the firmware for the
HBA at the storage vendor site.

NOTE If the SMagent is installed, you are finished with this procedure; if not, go to step 4. The remaining steps
describe how to obtain the Fibre Channel HBA host port world wide name from the HBA BIOS utility.

4. Reboot or start your host.

5. While your host is booting, look for the prompt to access the HBA BIOS utility.
The actual prompts and screens vary depending on the vendor that provides the HBA. Also, some HBAs have
software utilities that you can use to obtain the world wide name for the port instead of using the BIOS utility. If you
are using a Fibre Channel switch, you can find the HBA host port world wide name of each port on the HBA from
the name server of the switch.
6. Select each HBA to view its HBA host port world wide name.
7. Record the following information for each host and for each HBA connected to the storage array:
The name of each host
The HBAs in each host
The HBA host port world wide name of each port on the HBA
The following table shows examples of the host and HBA information that you must record.

Things to Know – Host Channels
ATTENTION Possible hardware damage –To prevent electrostatic discharge damage to the tray, use proper
antistatic protection when you handle tray components.

Each controller has from two to six host ports.

Two of the host ports are standard and support 6-Gb/s SAS data rates.
Two to four of the host ports are optional, and, if present, are located on a host interface card (HIC). The following
types of HICs are supported:

NOTE In configurations where a HIC does not exist, the space is covered with a blank faceplate.

Two SAS connectors at 6-Gb/s

Four iSCSI connectors at 1-Gb/s
Two iSCSI connectors at 10-Gb/s
Four FC connectors at 8-Gb/s

WARNING (W03) Risk of exposure to laser radiation –Do not disassemble or remove any part of a Small
Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver because you might be exposed to laser radiation.

Procedure – Connecting Host Cables on a E2600 Controller-Drive

Tray
IMPORTANT Make sure that you have installed the HBAs. Refer to the documentation for the HBAs for information
about how to install the HBA and how to use the supplied configuration utilities.

The type of HICs (SAS, FC, or iSCSI) must match the type of the host bus adapters (HBAs) or network interface cards
(for iSCSI only) to which you connect them.

See the examples in the following section for example cabling patterns.

1. Perform one of these actions:

You are using an FC HIC – Go to step 2.
You are using either a SAS or an iSCSI HIC – Go to step 4. Connections for iSCSI use copper cables with
RJ-45 connectors and do not require SFP transceivers. Connections for SAS use SFF-8088 connectors.
2. Make sure that the appropriate type of SFP transceiver is inserted into the host channel.
3. If a black, plastic plug is in the SFP transceiver, remove it.
4. Perform one of these actions:
You are using either a SAS or an iSCSI HIC – Starting with the first host channel of each controller, plug one
end of the cable into the host channel.

E2600 Controller-Drive Tray and Related Drive Trays - 47

 You are using an FC HIC – Starting with the first host channel of each controller, plug one end of the cable
into the SFP transceiver in the host channel.
The cable is either an Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors for 1-Gb/s iSCSI connections, an SFF-8088 connector
for 6-Gb/s SAS connections, or a fiber-optic cable for FC connections.

IMPORTANT If Synchronous Mirroring connections are required, do not connect a host to the highest numbered
FC host channel as the FC channel is used for the mirrored communications.

Steps to Install – Drives on the DE6600 Drive Tray

The DE6600 drive tray is shipped with the drive drawers installed, but the drives are not installed. Follow the steps in
this procedure to install the drives.

ATTENTION Risk of equipment malfunction – To avoid exceeding the functional and environmental limits, install
only drives that have been provided or approved by the original manufacturer. Drives might be shipped but not
installed. System integrators, resellers, system administrators, or users can install the drives.

72 - E2600 Controller-Drive Tray and Related Drive Trays

The installation order within each drawer is from left to right in rows. Slots 1, 4, 7, and 10 must have a drive installed
in these locations to make sure there is sufficient air flow to the drives. To verify these slots, consult the overlay on
the front of each of the five drive drawers. Make sure the four drives in each row are adjacent to each other. The long
edge of each drive should touch the drive next to it. To maintain a uniform airflow across all drive drawers, the drive
tray must be configured with a minimum of 20 drives, with four drives in the front row of each of the five drive drawers.

ATTENTION Risk of equipment malfunction – All 60-drive trays have a limit of five solid state drives (SSDs) per
drawer. If you exceed this limit for SSDs in a particular drawer, the power source in the drawer is likely to receive too
much current and could fail.

Things to Know – Connecting the Power Cords

For each AC power connector on the drive tray, make sure that you use a separate power source in the cabinet.
Connecting to independent power sources maintains power redundancy.
To ensure proper cooling and assure availability, the drive tray always uses two power supplies.
You can use the power cords shipped with the drive tray with typical outlets used in the destination country, such
as a wall receptacle or an uninterrupted power supply (UPS). These power cords, however, are not intended for
use in most EIA-compliant cabinets.

IMPORTANT Make sure that you do not turn on the power to the drive tray until this installation guide instructs you to
do so.

Things to Know – E2600 Controller-Drive Tray

NOTE On the E2600 controller-drive tray, each controller has a pair of levers with handles for removing the controller
from the controller-drive tray. One of these handles on each controller is located next to a host connector. The close
spacing between the handle and the host connector might make it difficult to remove a cable that is attached to the
host connector. If this problem occurs, use a flat-blade screwdriver to push in the release component on the cable
connector.

The E2600 controller-drive tray supports both the DE1600 drive tray and the DE5600 drive tray for expansion.
The maximum number of drive slots in the storage array is 96 (expandable to 192, including the 12 or 24 drive
slots in the controller-drive tray. Exceeding 96 (or 192) drive slots makes the storage array invalid. The controllers
cannot perform operations that modify the configuration, such as creating new volumes.
Each controller has one dual-ported SAS expansion connector to connect to the drive trays.

in-band management
out-of-band management

in-band management

A method to manage a storage array in which a storage management station sends commands to the storage array
through the host input/output (I/O) connection to the controller. The SMagent must be installed for this method to work
correctly.

out-of-band management

A method to manage a storage array in which a storage management station sends commands to the storage array
through the Ethernet connections on the controller. This is the recommended management method.

Things to Know – Connecting Ethernet Cables

ATTENTION Risk of security breach – Connect the Ethernet ports on the controller tray to a private network
segment behind a firewall. If the Ethernet connection is not protected by a firewall, your storage array might be at risk
of being accessed from outside of your network.

Ethernet port 2 on each controller is reserved for access by Technical Support.

In limited situations in which the storage management station is connected directly to the controller tray, you must
use an Ethernet crossover cable. An Ethernet crossover cable is a special cable that reverses the pin contacts
between the two ends of the cable.

Because the controllers support the Auto-MDIX feature, you might not need an Ethernet crossover cable.

Procedure – Connecting Ethernet Cables

Perform these steps to connect Ethernet cables for out-of-band management.

1. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port 1 on controller A.
2. Connect the other end to the applicable network connection.
3. Repeat step 1 through step 2 for controller B.

Things to Know – Service Action Allowed LEDs

Each controller canister, power-fan canister, and battery canister has a Service Action Allowed LED. The Service
Action Allowed LED lets you know when you can remove a canister safely.

ATTENTION Possible loss of data access – Never remove a controller canister, a power-fan canister, or a battery
canister unless the appropriate Service Action Allowed LED is on.

If a controller canister or a power-fan canister fails and must be replaced, the Service Action Required (Fault) LED on
that canister comes on to indicate that service action is required. The Service Action Allowed LED also comes on if it
is safe to remove the canister. If data availability dependencies exist or other conditions that dictate a canister should
not be removed, the Service Action Allowed LED stays off.

The Service Action Allowed LED automatically comes on or goes off as conditions change. In most cases, the Service
Action Allowed LED comes on when the Service Action Required (Fault) LED comes on for a canister.

If the Service Action Required (Fault) LED comes on but the Service Action Allowed LED is off for a particular
canister, you might need to service another canister first. Check your storage management software to determine the
action that you should take.

When a service action is required for a controller canister, you must place that controller offline before removing it
from the enclosure. This prerequisite ensures that the storage array maintains accurate expansion cabling.

Things to Know – Lock-Down Codes for the Controller-Drive Tray
Use the following table to determine the diagnostic lock-down code definitions on the Seven-Segment Display in
the controller canister. In general, these diagnostics show only when the controller is in a non-operational state. The
controller can be in a non-operation state as a result of a configuration problem (such as mismatched controller types)
or as a result of a hardware fault. If the amber Controller Service Action Required LED is on, the non-operational state
is the result of a hardware fault.

Things to Know – Seven-Segment Display for the ESMs on the

Drive Trays
During normal operation, the tray ID display on each ESM shows the drive tray ID. The Diagnostic LED (lower-digit
decimal point) comes on when the display is used for diagnostic codes and goes off when the display is used to show
the tray ID.

If a power-on or reset occurs, the Diagnostic LED, the Heartbeat LED (upper-digit decimal point), and all seven
segments of both digits come on. The Diagnostic LED remains on until the drive tray ID appears.
