Step 1: Verify Contents of the Shipping Package and System Requirements
Before you begin installation, check to make sure you have all the hardware and software components required for your system.
Check the contents of your Ship Kit to ensure you have all the components described in• Hardware Features .
Gather any optional components that you need to complete your system (described below in the•
Optional Hardware
Components table).
Verify that supported operating system(s) and Initiator(s) are installed on your network (see the• Snap Server 700i Series
User’s Guide for a complete list).
Optional Hardware Components
Component Description
Power Supply Upgrade The Snap Server 720i can be upgraded to a second power supply. The Snap Server 730i
and 750i come with dual power supplies.
APC-brand UPS devices Snap Servers are designed to work with a USB- or network-based APC-brand UPS. Visit the
APC Web site for a list of APC models to use with your Snap Server.
Memory Upgrades The Snap Server 720i memory can be upgraded to 2 GB. Memory upgrades are available
in 1GB DIMMs.
Step 2: Install the Server in a Rack
Note The Snap Server 700i Series models can only be mounted in a four-post, 32-inch depth, EIA-compliant rack. A two-post
telco-style rack or a rack less than 32-inches in depth will not support the server.
As shown in the Hardware Features illustration, the Snap Server ships with two slide rail assemblies consisting of inner rails to
attach to the chassis, outer rails to attach to the rack, and a packet of screws for mounting the rails to the chassis and to the rack.
The rails are not universal. They are stamped Left and Right and must be mounted correctly (stamped designation refers to left
and right as you are facing the front of the unit). You will need a Phillips screwdriver to mount the rails and a second person to
help position the Snap Server into the rack.
Attach the Sliders to the Chassis
1 Take the left inner slider and position it on the left side toward the rear of the chassis.
The tongues on the chassis should fit through the rectangular holes on the rail, and the
release mechanism should be facing out.
2 Slide the rail forward, and continue to slide until you can feel that it is attached
securely (see illustration).
3Fasten with the rail attachment Phillips screw.
4Repeat Steps 1 through 3 for the right inner slider.

Attach the Slide Rail Assemblies to the Rack
1 Assemble the outer slide rail assemblies by fitting the longer rail piece on top of
the shorter rail piece and pulling outward until the two pieces lock.
2 Position one of the rail assemblies in the rack (making sure you place the right-
stamped rail on the right side of the rack).
3Align the front holes with the front holes
in the rack, and screw a rail screw into
the bottom hole. Note that the rack
holes are not evenly spaced. Be sure to align the rail so that the rail holes match up
with the rack holes.
4Align the rear holes with the rear holes in the rack and screw rail screws in the top
and bottom holes.
5Repeat Steps 2, 3, and 4 for the
second rail.
Mount the Chassis in the Rack
1 Align the inner sliders (attached to the chassis) with the front ends of the slide
rail assemblies (attached to the rack) and slide the server into the rack.
2Line up the holes on the inner sliders with the holes on the rack/outer rails,
and secure the chassis with the remaining screws.
Step 3: Connect Power and Network Cables
The server has four (three on the Snap Server 720i) Gigabit Ethernet ports that can connect to 10BaseT, 100BaseTx, or
1000BaseT networks (a 1000BaseT network will provide best performance). At least one port must be connected; however, a
multi-port configuration offers considerable performance advantages and is highly recommended.
If you connect only one port, it must be the eth0 port (as shown in the Hardware Features illustration), which is used by Adaptec
Storage Manager as the management port but which can also double as an iSCSI port.
Cabling the Server to the Network
Use the provided Ethernet cables to connect the server to the network. When you connect network cables to eth0 and eth1 active
ports, the network lights on the bezel (LAN 1 and LAN 2) are green. The Activity network lights for eth2 and eth3 (located on the
rear of the server on the Network Interface Card) blink green to indicate that the ports are active.
Connecting the Power Cord
Note The Snap Server 730i and 750i
(shown) use a dual power supply. The Snap
Server 720i (not shown) has a single power
supply and will require only one UPS and/or
electrical outlet for installation.
As a data integrity measure, Adaptec
strongly recommends you connect each
power supply module to a separate power source via a separate UPS. Use the provided power cord(s) to plug the modules into
the UPS(s) or properly grounded electrical outlet(s).
Note Snap Servers are designed to work with APC-brand, USB- or network-based UPS devices to automatically shut down
cleanly in case of a power failure. You must configure the APC unit both in ASM and in the APC user interface.

Step 4: Power On the Snap Server
To turn on the server, press the power button on the front of the server. The server takes a
few minutes to initialize. The LCD will display the server’s name and the eth0 (Management
port) IP address when the system has fully initialized.
Note If you connect a SANbloc S50 expansion array, use the array’s documentation to
install and connect the array before powering on the Snap Server.
Step 5: Connect to the Snap Server and Configure the iSCSI Storage Appliance
Snap Servers are preset to acquire an IP address from a DHCP server. If no DHCP server is found on the network, the server
defaults to an IP address of 10.10.10.10 and you should assign a different IP address using the following procedure:
1Set a machine in your environment to the same subnet as the Snap Server and telnet to the Snap Server: telnet
10.10.10.10
2Exit the CLI Wizard to get an Administrator prompt: *abort (If prompted for an ID and password, use admin/admin.)
3Change the IP Address: interface
manage eth0
ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (the new IP Address)
The LCD screen on the Snap Server bezel will show the new IP Address.
Install and Configure Adaptec Storage Manager™ (ASM)
Your iSCSI Storage can be configured in a number of ways. This Quick Start Guide describes the simplest configuration, where
all components are installed on a single server running Windows 2003 and connected to the Snap Server 700i Series iSCSI
Storage Appliance. For more complex network configurations and for installations on Windows Vista, XP, or Linux-based
operating systems, see the Snap Server 700i Series User’s Guide on your Adaptec
OnTarget™ User CD.
IMPORTANT! Install your Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator v2.05BEFORE
installing ASM. Download and install the Initiator from www.microsoft.com and
select the following options: Initiator Service, Software Initiator, Microsoft MPIO
Multipathing Support for iSCSI.
