9176/D173 D
ISK SUBSYSTEM - SITE PREPARATION GUIDE 35
S
IXTH EDITION
Other Hardware
Additional hardware you will need to install depends on whether you use the host-agent
method (Figure 14 and Figure 16) or the direct-manage (Figure 15 and Figure 17) method
to manage the Disk storage subsystem. Refer to the disk subsystem power point
configuration presentation, P/N 96034; and to the concept guide, P/N 96035 for more
information with information on heterogeneous configurations .
If using the host-agent attached (aka host-agent manage) method, do the following:
•
Install one or more management stations (if not already installed).
•
Install a software agent host.
If using the direct network attached (aka direct manage) method, do the following:
•
Install one or more management stations (if not already installed).
•
Attach Ethernet cables to each management station — one pair for each controller tray
in the storage array. Leave the opposite end of these cables unconnected for now. You
will connect each cable to each controller when you install the controller tray.
