Cisco Storage Array SA-7 and SA-14 Installation and Configuration
Guide.
Connecting Power and Booting the System
To connect power to your system, follow these steps:
Step 1 Review the information in the “Safety Guidelines” section on page 2-4.
Step 2 Plug a power cord into each power cord receptacle on the back of the WAE. (See
Figure 3-8.)
Note You must connect a power cord to both power supplies. If only one power
supply is connected, when you turn on the power, the system error LED
lights and the system makes a loud noise.
Step 3 Connect the other end of each power cord to a power source at your
installation site.
Step 4 Power up all externally connected devices.
Step 5 Press the power control button on the front of the WAE.
The system should begin booting. Once the operating system boots, you are ready
to initialize the basic software configuration. (Refer to the software configuration
guide or user guide that shipped with your system.)
