1 Understanding the Array Installation Procedure

To set up a SAN and start using your array, follow these steps:

1. Install the array in a rack. See Rack Mounting the Array on page 3.

2. Connect the array to power and the network. See Connecting the Array Cables on page 9 and Connect

the Array to the Network on page 12.

3. Configure the PS Series software. First, initialize an array to make it accessible on the network. Then,

either create a group with the array as the first group member or add the array to an existing group. When

you expand a group, capacity and performance increase automatically. See Choose a Configuration

Method on page 17.

4. Start using the SAN. Allocate group storage space to users and applications by creating volumes. A

volume appears on the network as an iSCSI target. Use a computer’s iSCSI initiator to connect to a

volume. Once you connect to a volume, it appears as a regular disk on the computer. See Storage

Allocation on page 25.

After getting started, you can customize the group and use its more advanced features. See Where to Go

After Setting Up a Group on page 31.
