Installation
The first step in setting up the HPE R0Q74A MSA 2060 16GB Fibre Channel SFF Storage is to physically install the system. The installation process is straightforward and involves the following steps:
- Unpack the system: Start by unpacking the HPE R0Q74A MSA 2060 16GB Fibre Channel SFF Storage and checking that all the components are present. You should have the storage enclosure, controller module(s), power supplies, and any optional accessories that you may have ordered.
- Rack mount the storage enclosure: If you have ordered a rack mount kit, follow the instructions to install the enclosure in your data center rack. Ensure that you have the necessary tools and hardware, such as screws and cage nuts.
- Connect the controller module(s): The HPE R0Q74A MSA 2060 16GB Fibre Channel SFF Storage can support up to two controller modules, so you'll need to connect them to the storage enclosure. Follow the instructions provided in the user manual to do this. The controller modules are typically connected to the storage enclosure using the SAS cable(s) provided.
- Connect the power supplies: The HPE R0Q74A MSA 2060 16GB Fibre Channel SFF Storage comes with two hot-pluggable power supplies. Connect the power cables to the power supplies and then to a power source. Ensure that you follow the instructions provided in the user manual and that you use the correct power cables for your region.
- Connect the Fibre Channel cables: The HPE R0Q74A MSA 2060 16GB Fibre Channel SFF Storage supports Fibre Channel connectivity, so you'll need to connect your Fibre Channel cables to the controller module(s). Follow the instructions provided in the user manual to do this.
Configuration
Once you've installed the HPE R0Q74A MSA 2060 16GB Fibre Channel SFF Storage, you'll need to configure it before you can start using it. The configuration process involves the following steps:
- Access the user interface: To configure the HPE R0Q74A MSA 2060 16GB Fibre Channel SFF Storage, you'll need to access the user interface. This can be done using a web browser on a computer connected to the same network as the storage system.
- Configure the network settings: The first step in the configuration process is to configure the network settings. This involves assigning an IP address and subnet mask to the controller module(s) so that they can communicate with other devices on the network.
- Create storage pools: Once you've configured the network settings, you can create storage pools. A storage pool is a logical group of disks that can be used to create virtual volumes. Follow the instructions in the user manual to create a storage pool.
- Create virtual volumes: With the storage pool created, you can now create virtual volumes. A virtual volume is a logical partition of the storage pool that can be assigned to a server or application. Follow the instructions in the user manual to create virtual volumes.
