Connect the Power Cords
To provide chassis grounding and electrostatic discharge protection while
you install the data drives, connect the power cords to the nTier700 before
installing the drives.
Use the following steps to connect the power cords.
1. Connect a power cord to each of the power supply connectors on the
rear panel.
2. Push the cord lock on each connector to the left so that it fits over the
power cord, locking it in place.
3. Plug the other end of each cord to an AC power outlet.
Caution
DO NOT power-on the nTier700 until you finish installing ALL of the drives for the
first time. If you install the drives with the nTier700 powered on, the RAID controller
immediately begins rebuilding the RAID volume in the blade, which may destroy
the preconfigured RAID 6 volume.
Figure 1 Connect the power cables to the rear panel (N+1 power configuration shown).
