Attention: When routing the Fibre Channel cables, do not tighten the cable straps or bend the
cables to a radius smaller than 76 mm (3 in.).

Verifying the SAN Volume Controller 2145-SV1 installation
You must verify the installation after the installation has completed.
Before you begin
This task shows you how to verify the installation after you install the system in the rack and connect it to
the storage area network (SAN) and the Ethernet.
Note: If at any point the system does not operate as described, see MAP 5000: in the IBM SAN Volume
Controller Troubleshooting Guide, unless a different maintenance analysis procedure (MAP) is specied.
Procedure
To verify the installation, complete the following steps.
1. Connect power supply 1 and power supply 2 to a live AC supply. The SAN Volume Controller node
begins to power on. The Power LED should be solidly on after a few seconds, but if it continues to flash
after 1 minute, press the power-control button. If the LED is not illuminated, see MAP 5000 in the IBM
SAN Volume Controller Troubleshooting Guide to repair the problem.
Note: You do not need to install any software. The node boots automatically.
The SAN Volume Controller 2145-SV1 runs an extended series of power-on self-tests. The node might
appear to be idle for up to 5 minutes after it powers on.
Figure 33 on page 28
shows the controls and indicators on the front panel that verify the installation.
Figure 34 on page 29 is a close-up view of the operator-information panel.
