Chapter 1. Adding Optional Components

1.1 Before Starting Addition of Optional Components
If you make a mistake in operation during an addition of the optional component, it is feared
that user data in the subsystem is lost. Therefore, perform the following before starting the
addition of the optional component to provide against an unexpected accident.

(1) Backup user data.

Backup user data in the subsystem by the operation on the host computer side.
(2) The work to add an optional component varies depending on the component and a location
where the component is to be installed. Besides, perform the addition after making sure
whether the work must be done with the subsystem power on or off.
y An addition with the subsystem power on :
A status in which the subsystem power is turned on irrespective of whether the system (host
computer) is turned on or off.
y An addition with the subsystem power off :
A status in which the subsystem power is turned on irrespective of whether the system (host
computer) is turned on or off.
(3) When adding the optional component, it is required to change the settings of the subsystem
using a service PC connected via a LAN. Make the following preparations before starting the
addition of the optional component.
y Prepare a PC in which Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2 is installed. The PC must be used
in the LAN environment.
y Ask the customer whether the subsystem is operable via a LAN. If not, obtain customer’s
permission to operate the subsystem via a LAN.
(4) Promote mutual understanding with the user about the possibility of a system down in order to
minimize damage caused by failures.
(5) When adding the optional component with the subsystem power on, the operation replacing
dummy Disk Drive with Disk Drive has to be finished within 10 minutes.
(6) Do not make the addition work when the READY LED (green) on the front of the Basic Chassis is
blinking at high speed. When it is high-speed blinking, the ENC firmware is being downloaded.
Perform the addition work after checking that the READY LED (green) on the front of the Basic
Chassis lights up after waiting for the maximum of 30 to 50 minutes (or 40 to 60 minutes in
case of RKH).
(7) When the WARNING LED (orange) on the front of the Basic Chassis is blinking at high speed, do
not perform the addition work. While this WARNING LED (orange) is blinking at high speed,
the update of the flash program or the automatic download of the ENC firmware at the time of
turning the power on in the single controller configuration is being executed. Perform the
addition work after checking that the WARNING LED (orange) on the front of the Basic Chassis
goes out and the READY LED (green) lights up in the maximum of 30 to 85 minutes.

(8) If the array subsystem used for a remote side of TrueCopy remote replication/TrueCopy
Extended Distance restarts in the status that TrueCopy remote replication/TrueCopy Extended
Distance is enabled, the following phenomena occur.
• The paths of TrueCopy remote replication/TrueCopy Extended Distance are both blocked.
The notice of E-mail Alert Function, SNMP Agent Support Function, and TRAP occur at the
time of the path blockade.
Perform the notice and the check to the Failure Monitoring Department in advance.
The path blockade automatically recovers after restarting.
• When the status of the pair of TrueCopy remote replication/TrueCopy Extended Distance is
PAIR or COPY, the pair changes to PSUE.
If the Pair status of TrueCopy remote replication/TrueCopy Extended Distance is either PAIR or
COPY, suspend the pairs before restarting the array subsystem.
(9) Do not add the optional parts while the array subsystem is being started.
When the array subsystem is being started, add the optional parts after the array subsystem
becomes the Ready status.
(10) It is required to install the adaptable firmware depending on the parts to be added.
Check the adaptable firmware revision referring to Firmware “1.8 Adaptable Firmware
Revision” (FIRM 01-0920).
If the Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2 compatible with the adaptable firmware is not
installed, the setting for the option to be added cannot be made.
Verify that the version of the Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2 installed on the Maintenance
PC is compatible with the adaptable firmware.
(11) Do not execute the addition work while rewriting the drive firmware (“IZ0000 HDU firmware
download start” is displayed in the Information Message on WEB). Execute the addition work
after checking that “IZ0100 HDU firmware download end” is displayed in the Information
Message on WEB.
(12) The equipment with the NEBS specifications is designed for use in an Isolated Battery return
configuration (DC-I). Connect the DC Return leads directly to the Central Office Power Return
buss. Do not connect the return leads to the chassis or ground.
(13) When installing SAS drives in RKAKX, use RKAKX chassis with its serial number 88010208 or
more. If the RKAKX with its serial number less than 88010208 is used, some slots cannot install
SAS drives.
For the locations of subsystem serial number markings, refer to Installation “2.3 (2) Checking
contents of package” (INST 02-0320).

1.6 Adding the Additional Subsystem to the Rack Frame

In the case of adding Disk Drives to a subsystem of the rackmount model, the additional
subsystem must be added when vacant slots for the Disk Drives to be added are insufficient in
the existing subsystem (‡1).
The procedure for adding the Additional Chassis to the RK40 rack frame online or offline (with
the subsystem power turned off)(‡2) is shown.
When mounting the additional subsystem on the rack frame, installation of as many rack rail
kits (DF-F800-URHT8) as the additional subsystem to be added are required.
When the decoration panels/filler panels of the rack frame are attached, it is necessary to
remove the panels at the installation positions.

1.6.1 Procedure for Adding the Additional Subsystem to the Subsystem of Rackmount Model
with RK40 Rack Frame
(1) Prerequisites
Before starting the addition, make sure that the following requirements are satisfied. If not,
an abnormal termination of the addition or a system down may be caused.
(a) You can add the chassis only when the WARNING LED (orange) and ALARM LED (red) on the
subsystem go out and the POWER LED (green) and READY LED (green) light up. (Refer to
Troubleshooting “Chapter 8. Trouble Analysis by LED Indication” (TRBL 08-0000).)
(b) Do not perform the recognition (‡2) operation of the Additional Chassis during the execution of
the format command (it is not the LU format from the Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2)
from the host computer. When the format was executed from the host computer, add the
additional chassis after the format is completed.
(c) Do not make the addition work when the READY LED (green) on the front of the Basic Chassis
is blinking at high speed. When it is high-speed blinking, the ENC firmware is being
downloaded. Perform the addition work after checking that the READY LED (green) on the
front of the Basic Chassis lights up after waiting for the maximum of 30 to 50 minutes (or 40
to 60 minutes in case of RKH).
(d) When the WARNING LED (orange) on the front of the Basic Chassis is blinking at high speed,
do not perform the addition work. While this WARNING LED (orange) is blinking at high
speed, the update of the flash program or the automatic download of the ENC firmware at
the time of turning the power on in the single controller configuration is being executed.
Perform the addition work after checking that the WARNING LED (orange) on the front of the
Basic Chassis goes out and the READY LED (green) lights up in the maximum of 30 to 85 minutes.
(e) To add the RKAKX, the firmware version 0860/A or later and the Hitachi Storage Navigator
Modular 2 version 6.00 or later are required.

‡1 : The existing subsystem is the Basic Chassis or the Additional Chassis that configures the subsystem under operation.
The Additional Chassis to be connected is connected to the existing subsystem. The Additional Chassis that the
addition is completed becomes the existing subsystem.
‡2 : The expression “with the subsystem power on” described here means a state in which the power of the disk array
subsystem is turned on. (System operation with a host is no concern of it.)

ADD 01-0660-07
DF800 Hitachi Proprietary K6603315-

(2) Restrictions
Observe the following restrictions strictly. There is fear of the abnormal termination of the
addition or the subsystem down.
(a) The part replacement cannot be performed during the recognition(‡1) of the additional chassis
((5) - Work 7).
The parts cannot be replaced during the connection and recognition(‡1) of the additional
chassis ((5) - Work 7).
(b) Do not execute the format command (not the LU format from Hitachi Storage navigator
Modular 2) from the host computer during the connection and recognition(‡1) of the additional
chassis ((5) - Work 7).

‡1 : The recognition indicates that the Control Unit of the existing RKM/RKS/RKH recognizes the Additional Chassis.

ADD 01-0670-00
DF800 Hitachi Proprietary K6603315-

(3) Specifications
(a) Be sure to connect to one ENC cable per ENC Unit between the RKM/RKS/RKH, and the
Additional Chassis and the Additional Chassis.
(b) Restriction of number of the Additional Chassis allowed to be added is that the total number
of the subsystems must not exceed the allowable maximum after the addition.
The RKM can be connected to the Additional Chassis, and installed up to 15 RKAKs and 4
RKAKXs.
The RKS can be connected to the Additional Chassis, and installed up to 7 RKAKs and 1 RKAKX.
The RKH can be connected to up to 32 RKAKs and up to 10 RKAKXs.
However, when subsystems are mounted mixing RKAKs and RKAKXs, the mountable number of
additional unit is different.
For the mountable number of each additional chassis when subsystems are mounted mixing
RKAKs and RKAKXs, refer to Introduction “Table 1.3.1 Mounted Number of Additional Chassis
and the Maximum Mountable Number of Disk Drives” (INTR 01-0090).
(c) If a failure occurs in the additional chassis and the existing chassis (‡1) during the connection
and recognition (‡2) of the additional chassis ((5)-Work-9), give priority to the existing chassis
(‡1)
and perform the maintenance. After that, perform the maintenance of the additional
chassis and then restart the addition work.
(d) When adding the Additional Chassis with the subsystem power turned off, install all the Disk
Drives to be added in the chassis, connect between all the chassis with the ENC cables, and
turn on the subsystem power. (Refer to “(6) Procedure for adding the Additional Chassis in
the status that the subsystem power is turned off” (ADD 01-0720).)
(e) Do not add the optional parts while the array subsystem is being started.
When the array subsystem is being started, add the optional parts after the array subsystem
becomes the Ready status.
(f) Up to 38 SAS Disk Drives can be installed in a RKAKX.
In a RKAKX, intermix of SAS Disk Drives and SATA Disk Drives is not supported for installation.

‡1 : The existing subsystem is the Basic Chassis or the Additional Chassis that configures the subsystem under operation.
The Additional Chassis to be connected is connected to the existing subsystem. The Additional Chassis that the
addition is completed becomes the existing subsystem.
‡2 : The recognition indicates that the Control Unit of the existing RKM/RKS/RKH recognizes the Additional Chassis.

Chapter 2. Removing Optional Components

2.1 Before Starting Removal of Optional Components

If you make a mistake in operation during a removal of the optional component, it is feared
that user data in the subsystem is lost. Therefore, perform the following before starting the
removal of the optional component to provide against an unexpected accident.

(1) Backup user data.

Backup user data in the subsystem by the operation on the host computer side.
(2) The work to removal an optional component varies depending on the component and a location
where the component is to be installed. Besides, perform the addition after making sure
whether the work must be done with the subsystem power on or off.
y A removal with the subsystem power on :
A status in which the subsystem power is turned on irrespective of whether the system (host
computer) is turned on or off.
y A removal with the subsystem power off :
A status in which the subsystem power is turned on irrespective of whether the system (host
computer) is turned on or off.
(3) When removal the optional component, it is required to change the settings of the subsystem
using a service PC connected via a LAN. Make the following preparations before starting the
addition of the optional component.
y Prepare a PC in which Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2 is installed. The PC must be used
in the LAN environment.
y Ask the customer whether the subsystem is operable via a LAN. If not, obtain customer’s
permission to operate the subsystem via a LAN.
(4) Promote mutual understanding with the user about the possibility of a system down in order to
minimize damage caused by failures.
(5) Be sure to install a dummy Control Unit and a dummy Disk Drive in a vacant slot because
dummy Control Unit and dummy Disk Drive are required for adjusting the cooling air flow.
When removing the optional component with the subsystem power on, the operation replacing
Disk Drive with dummy Disk Drive has to be finished within 10 minutes.
(6) When the Spare Disk Drive Active Mode(‡1) is set as variable or it was set as variable in the past,
the RAID Group configuration and the Spare Disk Drive configuration may be different from the
configuration at the time of the introduction depending on the occurrence conditions of the
Disk Drive failures after the installation.
Check if the configuration examples conform to that described in “2.1.1 Preparatory Works for
Removal” (ADD 02-0020) before starting the removal. When the conformity is confirmed,
execute the procedure for the preparation.

‡1 : For details of the spare Disk Drive operation mode, refer to System Parameter “4.2 (6) Setting of Restore Options”
(SYSPR 04-0220) and “Introduction “3.6 (3) Operation after replacing failed Disk Drive” (INTR 03-0270).

ADD 02-0000-13
DF800 Hitachi Proprietary K6603315-

(7) Do not remove the parts while the array subsystem is being started.
When the array subsystem is being started, remove the parts after the array subsystem
becomes the Ready status.

2.1.1 Preparatory Works for Removal

When the Spare Disk Drive Active Mode is set as variable or it was set as variable in the past,
the RAID Group configuration or the Spare Disk Drive configuration may be different from the
configuration at the time of the introduction.
The Configuration examples concerned are shown in the following Items (1) to (4).
When they conform to these configuration examples, execute the following works before
starting the removal.
Also, if the RAID group configuration of the Additional Chassis to be removed was changed
from that at the time when the subsystem was introduced, restore the additional chassis to be
removed to the configuration at the time when the subsystem was introduced, and then
execute the removal work.

Drive(‡2) as a spare Disk Drive after the dynamic sparing is completed(‡3).
You can make sure of it by checking the “Type” and “Status” of the Disk Drive shown when
you select the Component Status tab of Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2. (For the details,
refer to System Parameter “3.5 Checking the Status of Disk Drive” (SYSPR 03-0430).)

However, the Disk Drive (Device ID #00, Drive #13) cannot be set as a spare Disk Drive.
(g) Make sure that there is no other Disk Drive, which composes a RAID group that cannot be
eliminated, than the additional unit to be de-installed. If such a Disk Drive exists, repeat
the works again from Step (c).
(h) Output the text file of the “RAID group/Logical unit” in the configuration copy information
again. (For the details, refer to System Parameter “4.2 (8) Setting of Constitute” (SYSPR 04-
0280).)
(i) Make sure that the current settings of the RAID groups and spare disks are correct and neither
more not less by comparing the text file that was output in Step (b) with that output in Step
(h). At this time roles of the Disk Drives (Device ID #00, Drive #13 and Device ID #01, Drive
#14) as a data Disk Drive and spare Disk Drive are reversed.

‡1 : When “Spare Drive” of [Configuration Settings] – [Restore Options] of the Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2 is
variable (default value) and “Applying No Copy Back Mode on All the Units” is enabled, the Spare Disk Drive (S1) of
the device ID #00 and the Disk Drive number #13 may not be the same model name as the Disk Drive of the device
ID #01 and the Disk Drive number #14. The Spare Disk Drive (S1) of the device ID #00 and the Disk Drive number
#13 may be the same model name as the Disk Drive of the device ID #01 and the Disk Drive number #14 or the Disk
Drive whose the rotational speed differs and the capacity is the same as the Disk Drive of the device ID #01 and the
Disk Diver number #14.
‡2 : The Disk Drive (Device ID #01, Drive #14) is detached. However, do not replace it because the detachment does
not mean a trouble.
‡3 : It takes a while to complete the dynamic sparing. For the standard time required, refer to “Table 2.2.2 Standard
Time Required for the Correction Copy or Copy Back” in Replacement “(4) Confirming completion of data recovery

Chapter 3. Relocation/Removal Work

3.1 Before Starting Relocation/Removal Work

Take notice of the following when performing an installation work for the subsystem.
When moving or removing a subsystem, take care of the following matters.

(1) Note on installing and removing parts

Generally, each part is equipped with high-precision components. Remove and install the part
gently so as not to give it any shock.

CAUTION
y To prevent part failures caused by static electrical charge built up on your own
body, be sure to wear a wrist strap connected to the chassis before starting and
do not take it off until you finish.
y Be sure to wear a wrist strap connected to the chassis whenever you unpack
parts from a case. Otherwise, the static electrical charge on your body may
damage the parts.
y When you install are Disk Drive, Control Unit and ENC Unit, support its metal
part with your hand that has the wrist strap. You can discharge static electricity
by touching the metal plate.

A failure may be caused by the electric shock since the Disk Drive, Control Unit or ENC Unit is
precision instrument. Be sure to put on the wrist strap before starting work in order to
protect Disk Drive, Control Unit or ENC Unit from electrostatic discharge.

The clip side of wrist strap:

Connect this to the metal part on
the frame of subsystem
Disk Drive ENC Unit

Support the part by touching its

metal part (metal plate) with your A wrist strap (Be sure to wear this before
fingers starting maintenance.)

ADD 03-0000-00
DF800 Hitachi Proprietary K6603315-

(2) Note on cable routing

(a) Handling of cables on the floor
• Protect cables which cannot be accommodated by the subsystem and thus laid on the floor
or cables which cross a passage with cable protecting, etc.
• Do not make inter-device cables apart from the floor but lay them on the floor.
(b) Handling of under-floor cables when the subsystem is installed on the free access floor.
• Give excess lengths to cables routed under the floor so that they can easily be laid on the
slab. Do not make them to be hung dangling.
(c) How to route cables
• Give adequate margin of length to cables to withstand earthquakes, etc.
• Route cables giving them excess lengths lest they should disturb replacement of part to be
done for maintenance.
• Make power cable and power cable apart each other. When they have to be positioned
close each other, do not make them run in parallel but make them cross each other.
• When using cable protecting duct, be careful not to damage or break cables by catching
them.
(d) Be sure to insert or pull out a cable connector holding it with your hand. If you pull a cable,
a trouble may be caused.
(e) When bending the FC I/F cable and RC (ENC) cable to connect it, give it a bend with a long
radius (not less than 30 mm) so as not to apply the cable and the connector excessive
stresses.

(3) Note on restarting

When restarting the subsystem, turn on the main switch after waiting more than one minute
after the main switch is turned off (after the POWER LED goes out).

(4) Note on completing a maintenance work

Close all the external covers when a maintenance work is completed.
It is required to make all the external covers closed to operate the subsystem properly.
(Be sure to close all the external covers during operation because it is indispensable to
maintain the performance of the subsystem including prevention of adverse effects caused by
radio frequency energy.)
