Installation Environment
The OceanStor virtual intelligent storage 6000 series virtual intelligent storage system (hereinafter
referred to as the VIS6000 ) includes two products: VIS6300 and VIS6600. The VIS6600 is superior to the
VIS6300 in hardware configuration and has more powerful capability of processing services. Unless
otherwise specified, this document takes the VIS6000 with the AC power as an example.
This document takes the VIS6000 that is installed to the N610E-22 cabinet as an example.
This document is based on the prerequisite that the N610E-22 cabinet is well installed and grounded.
Reserve the space of at least 100 cm between the cabinet and the wall and 120 cm between the cabinets
for the convenience of maintenance, ventilation, and heat dissipation.
Before installing the device into the cabinet, ensure that air in the cabinet exchanges with air in the
machine room. It is suggested to reserve the space of 1 U above the device and below the device.
N610E-22 Cabinet
Before installation, check whether the external environmental conditions, such as power supply and heat
dissipation, satisfy the requirements for normal running of the VIS6000.
Rated voltage: 220 V(AC); -48 V(DC)
Maximum AC input power: 900 W
Operating temperature: 5C to 40C (altitude: < 1800 m)
5C to 35C (altitude: 1800 m to 3000 m)
Operating altitude: 3000 m
Relative humidity: 5% RH to 85% RH
Material List
The N610E-22 cabinet is equipped with a captive nut mount bar.
The material list includes grounding cables and power cables.

4 VIS6000
The VIS6000 supports Gigabit Ethernet (GE) port modules and Fiber Channel (FC) port modules.
With full configuration, the VIS6000 can be configured with six port modules:
Two FC port modules + four GE port modules
Four FC port modules + two GE port modules
Six GE port modules
The VIS6000 provides ten interface cards with five on each side. The interface cards are numbered. The
numbers are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 from top to bottom. The interface cards that are numbered 0, 1, and 2 are
used for carrying port modules. The interface cards that are numbered 3 and 4 are used for carrying
system disks.
The FC port module and GE port module can be installed in the slots of the interface card without
restriction. The FC port module or the GE port module can be installed in slot 0,1, or 2.
According to the actual application environment choose the types and numbers of port modules. If the
interface card does not carry port modules, use a filler panel to hide the interface card. The controller A
and B must carry port modules in the same mode. The sequence of port modules on each side in the
VIS6000 must be consistent. In this way, the 1+1 redundant backup can be achieved.

aThe hot-swap control buttons on the GE port module and the FC port module are reserved. The current version does not
support the use of the button. Do not perform any operation on the button; otherwise, system services might be disrupted.
bThe management port module provides two management network ports and one mute alarm button. The left network port
on the management port module belongs to controller A, and the right network port belongs to controller B.

The following section takes the installation of the VIS6000 ( two FC port modules + four GE port modules)
in the N610E-22 cabinet as an example.
When wearing an ESD-preventive wrist strap, for the plugged ESD-preventive wrist strap, insert the wrist
strap into the ESD plug of the cabinet. For the ESD-preventive wrist strap with metallic clip, you can clip
the ESD-preventive wrist strap with metallic clip to the cabinet directly.

Place the guide rail to be installed in the corresponding position, see step in the figure. Ensure that the
direction of the adjustable guide rail is right. Align the positioning pins of the guide rail with the mounting
holes of the slide rail on the inner side of the cabinet, see step . Fix the adjustable guide rail on the slide
rail of the cabinet with screws. On the front side of the slide rail, the screw is installed in the third hole of
the adjustable guide rail. On the rear side of the slide rail, the screws are installed in the second and forth
holes of the adjustable guide rail, see step . Install another adjustable guide rail on the other side of the
cabinet with the same method.

The connection of port modules on the left and right of the rear of the VIS6000 is symmetrical. The
following operation takes port modules on the left of the rear of the VIS6000 as an example. For the
connection of port modules on the right, see the following installation procedure to perform similar
operations.
The signal cables are wired on the right of the rear of the cabinet (you can lead signal cables connected
to the left port modules to the right of the cabinet by using the cable tray). When cabinets are connected,
wire the connecting cables inside the cabinet support bridges.
For the FC service ports to which FC cables are not connected, use protective caps.

The IP addresses of GE service ports, management network ports, configuration ports, and heartbeat
network ports of controllers cannot be configured in the same network segment.
The IP addresses of the heartbeat ports on controllers are in the 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.2.0/24
network segments and cannot be modified.
The IP addresses of the configuration ports are in the 192.168.3.0/24 and cannot be modified.

The management network port module on the VIS6000 has two management network ports (one on the
left and the other on the right). This section takes the left management network port in the rear of the
VIS6000 as an example. The process to connect the management network port on the right is similar.
Perform the operation of the scenario corresponding to the type of the management network (direct
connection networking or switch networking).

If the maintenance terminal is connected to the configuration network port of the VIS6000, it cannot
provide a network port to connect the management network port. In this case, perform this operation after
setting the IP addresses of the management network ports of controller A and controller B and
disconnecting the configuration network port of the VIS6000 from the maintenance terminal.
