Adding an expansion enclosure to an existing system
When you add an expansion enclosure to an existing system, you must use the
management GUI to update the system configuration.
About this task
The management GUI requires a supported web browser (see “Checking your web
browser settings for the management GUI” on page 147). For more information on
installing a 5U expansion enclosure, see “Installing an optional 5U SAS expansion
enclosure” on page 28.
Procedure
To add an expansion enclosure to your system, complete the following steps.
1. Install support rails for the new enclosure.
2. Install the new enclosure in the rack.
3. Connect the expansion enclosure attachment cables.
4. Connect the power cables and wait for the SAS light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to
illuminate.
5. Start the management GUI.
6. Go to Monitoring > System.
7. In the management GUI, select Monitoring > System. On the System --
Overview page, select Add Enclosure. When a new enclosure is cabled
correctly to the system, the Add Enclosures action automatically displays on
the System -- Overview page. If this action does not appear, review the
installation instructions to ensure the new enclosure is cabled correctly. You can
also add a new enclosure by selecting Add Enclosure from the System Actions
menu.
8. Continue to follow the on-screen instructions.
