8 System Setup Verification
To complete the installation, you must verify the power connection and final positioning of the
system before powering the system on.
Verifying Power Connections
CAUTION: To avoid any cabling errors, all drive enclosures must have drive pairs installed
before powering on the enclosure.
Verify the following before powering on the system:
• Redundant power
• Power cord connections
• AC cord connections
• Main power cords
NOTE: Secure the power cord with the retainer by placing the wire into the circular loop and
cinching it closed. You can slide the retainer by lifting the small tab behind the circular loop.
Redundant Power
The racks use redundant PDUs and power supplies to provide power redundancy throughout
the system. Before powering on the system, verify that the system has a valid redundant power
configuration connected to independent electrical power providers. Each of the PDUs must
connect to a power socket with power being separately supplied by an independent electrical
power source.
CAUTION: Ensure that the system does not exceed the ratings of the power sources and
PDUs, and adheres to the guidelines described in HPE 3PAR StoreServ 8000 Storage Site
Planning Manual.
Power Cord Connections
Each system arrives with all internal power cords configured and connected. Before powering
on the system, verify the following:
• AC cords are correctly configured and properly connected to the component.
• AC cord locks and cable ties on the PDUs and PCMs are properly connected.
• For a physical SP, the SP is properly connected to the PDU.
Repositioning the System
Install the rear door of the system and filler panels that might not have been completed during
installation.
If you have not positioned the system in a permanent operating location, as described in
“Positioning the Cabinet” (page 55) and the HPE 3PAR StoreServ 8000 Storage Site Planning
Manual, place the system in its final position before powering on.
