1 Installation and Setup Guide EMC DATA DOMAIN DD610 STORAGE SYSTEM Installation and Setup Steps The steps for a complete installation and configuration are: 1. 1 Install Hardware 2. 2 Define the Data Domain system information for your site 3. 3 Perform initial system configuration 4. 4 Configure the system for data access 5. 5 Configure optional software 6. 6 Perform optional additional system configuration 1 Install Hardware 1. Unpack the Data Domain system. A system consists of a DD610 controller and up to 3.5 TB of raw storage with seven 500 GB internal disk drives or up to 6 TB of raw storage with twelve 500 GB internal disk drives. The system uses RAID 6. 4 Open the packing box for the controller. 4 Remove the accessories and rack mount kit for all system components. 2. Install the appropriate rack mounting hardware for the controller into a 19-inch, four-post rack. Ensure that the rack is securely anchored to prevent tipping. Load the rack or cabinet beginning at the bottom to prevent the rack from becoming top-heavy. Be sure to plan appropriate vertical space to accommodate the 2U controller. See the instructions included with the slide rails. 3. Install the controller in the rack in a horizontal position. 4 Remove the controller from the shipping box. 4 Remove the bezel from the shipping package. 4 Install the controller on the tray rails and slide it into the rack. Be sure one person is at each side of the controller to guide it into the rail ends. 4 Secure the controller in the rack with the thumb screws. 4. Connect an administrative console. Attach a serial console to the controller s serial port, or use a monitor (VGA port) and keyboard (keyboard/purple icon), or use a KVM. USB is not supported as a KVM connection. See Figure 1. After physically connecting the Null Modem Serial cable to the 9-pin serial port on the Data Domain system and to the serial port on the client, set communication parameters of the client (HyperTerminal, PuTTY, etc) as followss: Baud rate: 9600 Stop Bits: 1 Bits: 8 Flow Control: None Parity: None Terminal Emulation: VT Enable data transfer connectivity. Repeat for each connection. 4 Ethernet connection: If using 1 Gb copper Ethernet, attach a Cat 5e or Cat 6 copper Ethernet cable to an RJ45 Ethernet network port (start with eth0 and go up) on the controller and attach the other end to an Ethernet switch or to an Ethernet port on your server. If using 1 Gb fiber Ethernet, use multimode fiber cables with LC connectors. See Figure 1. 4 Fibre Channel connection: If the system has the optional VTL card, attach a Fibre Channel fiber optical cable (LC connector) to a VTL HBA port on the controller, and attach the other end (LC connector) to a Fibre Channel switch or to a Fibre Channel port on your server. See Figure 1 for PCI card locations for the VTL HBAs. 6. Provide redundant power to the system. Connect power cables to both receptacles. See Figure Turn the system on. 4 When the Alert/ID LED turns blue, press the power button. See Figure 2. 4 Attach the bezel. 8. Collect the information needed for installation. Enter the information in Section 2 on the other side of this sheet. Safety All plug-in modules and blank plates are part of the fire enclosure and must be removed only when a replacement can be added immediately. The system must not be run without all parts in place. 4 A controller must be operated only from a power supply input voltage range of VAC, Hz. 4 Each component is intended to operate with two working power supplies installed. 4 Provide a suitable power source with electrical overload protection. 4 A safe electrical earth connection must be provided to the power cord. Check the grounding of the power sources before applying power. 4 The plug on each power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the socket outlets are located near the equipment and are easily accessible. 4 Permanently unplug the unit if you think it is damaged in any way and before moving it. If the unit is powered by multiple sources, disconnect all supplied power for complete isolation. 4 The power connections must always be disconnected prior to removal or replacement of a power supply module from any of the components in the system. 4 A faulty power supply module must be replaced within 24 hours. 4 Do not lift system components by yourself. A controller weighs up to 57 lbs (25.8 kg). 4 To comply with applicable safety, emission, and thermal requirements, covers must not be removed and all bays must be fitted with plug-in modules. 4 Load the rack beginning at the bottom to prevent the rack from becoming top-heavy. 4 Do not extend components on rails until you have loaded at least three or more similarly weighted items in the rack, or unless the rack is bolted to the floor or overhead structure to prevent tipping. Caution: If the system is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. Caution: The RJ-45 sockets on the motherboard/pci cards are for Ethernet connection only and must not be connected to a telecommunications network. ESD PRECAUTIONS Data Domain recommends that you fit and check a suitable antistatic wrist or ankle strap and observe all conventional ESD precautions when handling plug-in modules and components.

4 4 Configure the System for Data Access The Data Domain system provides multiple protocols for data access: NFS, CIFS, and OST (OpenStorage). You need to configure one or more protocols for data access depending on your environment. You also need to configure the clients for accessing the Data Domain system on the protocol of your choice. NFS The NFS configuration section in the Perform Initial System Configuration section sets up the NFS clients to allow access to /backup on the Data Domain system. You also need to set up the NFS clients to allow access to /backup on the Data Domain system. This can be done using the following steps: 4 Create a mount point (directory) such as /dd/rstr01/backup and create an administrative mount point such as /dd/rstr01/ddvar. 4 NFS mount the directories on the new mount points. For example: mount -F nfs -o hard,intr,vers=3,proto=tcp,rsize=327 68,wsize=32768 rstr01:/backup /dd/rstr01/backup mount -F nfs -o hard,intr,vers=3,proto=tcp,rsize=327 68,wsize=32768 rstr01:/ddvar /dd/rstr01/ddvar 4 Add the following lines to the file /etc/vfstab (the file name may be different depending on your UNIX-based system). The lines mount the directories at every reboot. For example: system:/backup - /dd/rstr01/backup nfs - yes hard,intr,vers=3,proto=tcp, rsize=32768,wsize=32768 system:/ddvar - /dd/rstr01/ddvar nfs - yes hard,intr,vers=3,proto=tcp, rsize=32768,wsize= To cause backup software to abort when the system is not mounted, create a backup directory within the mounted file system, such as /dd/rstr01/backup/disk1. CIFS The CIFS configuration section in the Configuration Wizard sets up the CIFS clients to allow access to /backup on the Data Domain system. You also need to set up the CIFS clients to allow access to /backup on the Data Domain system. VTL (OPTIONAL LICENSE REQUIRED) For the VTL software option, see the Data Domain technical note Integrating the Data Domain Appliance VTL with SANs. See the specific Data Domain integration documentation for setting up backup software from other vendors. OPENSTORAGE (OPTIONAL LICENSE REQUIRED) For setting up the Data Domain feature, see the EMC Data Domain Boost for OpenStorage Administration Guide. APPLICATION INTEGRATION For information about how to integrate the Data Domain system with backup software, see the documentation for the applicable application. For more information, refer to the documentation at EMC Online Support 5 Configure Optional Software If you purchased optional software for the Data Domain system such as Replicator or Retention Lock, the licenses are enabled on your Data Domain system prior to shipment. You need to configure them for use. Details configuring the optional software can be found in the EMC Data Domain Operating System Administration Guide. 6 Perform Optional Additional System Configuration ADDITIONAL SYSTEM CONFIGURATION Any system command that accepts a list, such as a list of IP addresses, accepts entries separated by either commas or spaces. See the EMC Data Domain Operating System Command Reference Guide for command details. Give access to additional backup servers: # nfs add /backup {* client-list} [options] Add users to the list that reports system problems: # alerts add -list Add users to the system report list: # autosupport add -list Enable FTP or TELNET: # adminaccess enable {ftp telnet} Add remote hosts to use FTP or TELNET: # adminaccess add {ftp telnet} fqdn-host-list Add a user: # user add name [priv {admin user}] Change a user s password: # user change password username TO SHUT DOWN THE SYSTEM Important: Never shut down the system by pressing the power button. Instead, enter: # system poweroff Troubleshooting Tips For troubleshooting information see the Data Domain Support web site
