    Vraid is the HP term for implementation of RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) storage. Vraid is also referred to as redundancy in HP management software. Virtual disks with HP Vraid use three key RAID methods: data striping, data mirroring, and parity error checking. Unlike traditional RAID, all HP Vraid levels distribute data across all available physical disks.

PDU (at rear of enclosure) Attach the brackets for a longer chassis If you are installing a longer chassis into your cabinet, such as for the controller enclosure, you must remove the supplied shipping retaining bracket and install the smaller brackets supplied in the accessory kit.
  • Page 27: Converting The Rails

    Consider the following when installing the rails: • Installing the rails does not require any tools for assembly. • HP recommends you install all the rail kits before installing any other components. • Ensure the rail is level before installing any other components. WARNING! Before you begin, make sure that the cabinet is sufficiently stable.
  • Page 28: Attaching The Rail

    On the rear of the rail, squeeze the scissor latch (1, Figure 6) together to insert the rail and pins through the cabinet holes (2, Figure 6) until the latch engages.

    Installing SFPs The HSV300-S controller uses Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFPs) transceiver modules on the FC ports. Four SFPs are factory installed in the HSV300-S, but you will need to install additional SFPs if you plan to use more than four switch ports. If you purchased extra SFPs, install them now. NOTE: The HSV300-S requires 4 Gb or higher SFPs.

  • Page 34: Connecting The Fibre Channel Cables

    Connecting the Fibre Channel cables To connect the EVA to the SAN, use standard Fibre Channel cables and observe cautions and good routing practices. CAUTION: Use appropriate precautions when handling Fibre Channel cables: • Touching the end of a Fibre Channel cable will either damage the cable or cause performance problems, including intermittent difficulties accessing the storage.
  • Page 35: Power Cable Connections

    Route the power cord so that it is not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed against it. Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord is attached to the EVA. HP StorageWorks 4400 Enterprise Virtual Array installation guide...
