User documents are available on the DVD shipped

with the MSA 2040, with the most recent versions on

the MSA 2040 website at http://www.hp.com/go/

msa2040/Manuals.

Confirm support for your hardware and software

components

Confirm that the devices you plan to connect and their

installed firmware and software versions are supported

for use with each other. The latest support information

is available on the HP Single Point of Connectivity

Knowledge (SPOCK) website at http://www.hp.com/

storage/spock.

Verify the operating environment

Review the HP MSA 2040 User Guide and ensure that

all environmental requirements are met, including site

wiring and electrical power inputs, ventilation and

cooling, and weight considerations.

Install the MSA 2040

Use the following steps to install your MSA 2040. For

more information, see the HP MSA 2040 User Guide.

Step 1. Install device into the rack

Use the instructions provided with the rack mounting

kits or other devices to rack the MSA 2040, expansion

drive enclosures, switches, and servers.

WARNING! At least two people are needed

to lift a fully populated MSA 2040 or expansion

drive enclosure into the rack. If the enclosure is

being loaded into the rack above chest level, a

third person must assist with aligning the

enclosure with the rails, while the other two

people support the weight of the enclosure.

Step 2. Connect expansion drive enclosures

If expansion drive enclosures are included in your

environment, connect SAS cables per their cabling

plan, either straight-through or Fault tolerant. Mini-SAS

to Mini-SAS cables are required for each drive

enclosure.

The following drive enclosures are supported:

DescriptionDrive enclosure model

6Gb SAS 3.5” 12-drive enclosureHP MSA 2040 LFF Disk

Enclosure

6Gb SAS 3.5” 12-drive enclosureHP P2000 LFF Drive

Enclosure

6Gb SAS 2.5” 25-drive enclosureHP D2700 Disk Enclosure

Drive enclosure connection guidelines

•Expansion drive enclosures can be connected to

an operational MSA 2040.

•Mini-SAS to Mini-SAS 0.5 m (1.64 ft) cables are

provided with MSA 2040, P2000 and D2700

drive enclosures (one for each I/O module).

•The maximum length cable supported for

connecting drive enclosures is 2 m (6.56 ft).

•Cables longer than those supplied with the drive

enclosure must be purchased separately. For a

list of cables available from HP, see the HP MSA

2040 QuickSpecs.

•The maximum number of enclosures supported in

an MSA 2040 solution is eight (one MSA 2040

and up to seven expansion drive enclosures).

Example MSA 2040 drive enclosure connections

MSA 2040 firmware supports both fault-tolerant and

straight-through SAS cabling to cascaded drive

enclosures. For more information about these cabling

schemes and for additional cabling examples, see the

HP MSA 2040 Cabling Configuration Guide.

The following image illustrates connecting two D2700

drive enclosures to an MSA 2040 using a

straight-through cabling scheme.

The following image illustrates connecting two D2700

drive enclosures to an MSA 2040 using a fault-tolerant

cabling scheme.

Step 3. Connect the MSA 2040 to data hosts

Direct-connect and switch-connect environments are

supported. For direct-connect configurations, connect

cables from the MSA 2040 to the host. For

switch-connect configurations, connect cables from the

MSA 2040 to the switch ports and from the switch

ports to the hosts.

MSA 2040 connection guidelines

•No host interface cables are shipped with MSA

2040 enclosures. For a list of cables available

from HP, see the HP MSA 2040 QuickSpecs.

•In direct-connect deployments, connect each host

to the same port on both of the MSA controllers.

•In switch-connect deployments, connect an MSA

Controller A port and the corresponding MSA

Controller B port to one switch, and connect a

second MSA Controller A port and the

corresponding MSA Controller B port to a

separate switch.

Example MSA 2040 connections

The following image illustrates connecting an MSA

2040 FC to two switches, and the two switches

connecting to two servers. Eight Fibre Channel cables

are required.

For more cabling examples, including connecting

directly to a server, see the HP MSA 2040 Cabling

Configuration Guide.

Step 4. Connect the MSA 2040 to a remote

management host (optional)

A remote management host directly manages systems

out-of-band over an Ethernet network.

If a remote management host is included in your

environment, connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable from the

network management port on each MSA 2040

controller to a switch that your management host can

access (preferably on the same subnet).

Step 5. Connect two MSA 2040 systems to

replicate volumes (optional)

HP MSA Remote Snap Software is an optional licensed

disaster-recovery utility that performs asynchronous

(batch) replication of block-level data from a volume

on a primary MSA 2040 to a secondary volume on

the same system or on a separate, independent MSA

2040. These two MSA 2040 systems connect through

switches and are on the same fabric or network.

For more information about Remote Snap Software,

including cabling requirements and user information,

see the HP MSA 2040 User Guide,HP MSA 2040

SMU Reference Guide, and Remote Snap online help.

Step 6. Connect power cords and power on

devices

IMPORTANT:

•The power cord must be approved for use

in your country. The power cord must be

rated for the product and for the voltage

and current marked on the electrical ratings

label of the product.

•Important safety information about power

cords is available in the Safety and

Disposal Guide, found on the Software

Support/Documentation DVD shipped with

the MSA 2040.

Apply power to the devices in the following order:

1. Connect power cords from the rack to separate

external power sources.

2. Power on the SAN/LAN switches (if necessary).

3. Connect each power supply module in all

attached expansion drive enclosures to a power

source in the rack. If the drive enclosures have

power switches, apply power. If the drive

enclosures do not have power switches, they

automatically start.

4. Wait one minute to ensure that all drives in the

drive enclosure are powered up and ready.

5. Connect each power supply module in the MSA

2040 to a power source in the rack. The MSA

2040 automatically starts (it does not have a

power switch).

6. Observe the LEDs on the front and the rear of the

MSA 2040 and any expansion drive enclosures,

and confirm that no LEDs are amber.

7. Power on the servers (if necessary).

Step 7: Update firmware on all components

After installing hardware and powering on devices

for the first time, verify that MSA 2040 controller

modules, expansion drive enclosure I/O modules, and

all disk drives are running the latest available

firmware. If updates are necessary, obtain the firmware

from the HP website and use the SMU to install the

downloaded firmware. For information, see the HP

MSA 2040 SMU Reference Guide.

Step 8: Configure the MSA 2040

Key configuration steps include setting the system date

and time, entering system parameters, and configuring

storage volumes. For more information, see the HP

MSA 2040 SMU Reference Guide.
