CHAPTER 1
DS60 Shelf Installation Overview
Adding DS60 expansion shelves to a Data Domain system increases the storage
capacity of the system. The expansion shelves are organized by sets (or chains).
lDD4200, DD4500, and DD7200 systems - Attach up to two expansion shelves per
set (chain);
lDD6300 - Supports only one DS60 expansion shelf;
lDD6800 and DD9300 - Attach up to four expansion shelves per set (chain);
lDD9500 and DD9800 systems - Attach up to four DS60 expansion shelves per set
(chain).
For details about maximum shelf counts per system and mixing shelves for different
systems, refer to the information in Requirements for combining DS60 and ES30
shelves on page 26 for shelf configuration restrictions.
Note
lData Domain systems that support the DS60 shelves must be running DD OS 5.7
and later.
lFor instructions on replacing one of the field replaceable components, see the
DS60 Installation and FRU Replacement Guide on the Online Support site. You
should assume that any printed copy might be out-of-date. Therefore, always
check the on-line support portal for the latest version of a document before
replacing any part.

Site requirements
This table lists the DS60 site requirements. See Hardware specifications on page 100
for hardware specifications information.
Table 3 Site requirements
Requirement DS60 Expansion Shelf
Vertical space in standard 19", 4-post rack 5U including a 1U Cable Managements Tray.
Do not use a two-post rack. See the slide rail
and installation documentation in the
packaging for installing in a rack.
Air conditioning Air conditioning that can cope with the
maximum BTU/hr thermal rating.
Temperature controls Adequate temperature control with a gradient
(change) not to exceed 30° C in an hour.
Front bezel clearance 1.56 inches (4.0 cm) of unobstructed
clearance.
Back panel clearance 5 inches (12.7 cm) of unobstructed clearance.
Airflow In a closed or multi-unit rack, ensure that the
unit has adequate airflow. If the equipment is
mounted in an enclosed (as opposed to a
four-post open rack), the front and rear doors
should have 65% minimum open area for
airflow. Whether in an open or enclosed rack,
use filler panels to prevent hot air re-
circulation. The rack design and installation
should take into consideration the maximum
ambient operating temperature of the
equipment, which is 35° C.
Power/grounding The Power distribution within the rack should
provide a safe electrical earth connection.
Voltage should be 200-240 VAC; 50 or 60 Hz.
Plug four power cords - two from each power
supply into separate branch circuit supplies
for redundancy—one set of cords from one
power supply goes to one branch and the
second set of cords from the other power
supply goes to a different branch. Each
receptacle must be capable of safely
supplying 0.94 amps from each power socket
or 1.87 amps from each socket in case of a
redundant circuit.

Licensing
The appropriate capacity license is required for any added shelf. There are three tiers
of storage—active, archive, and cache. A license is purchased and applied to one of
these tiers.
Note
Only Data Domain Extended Retention (ER) systems have archive tier storage.
Note
Only Data Domain DD6300, DD6800 and DD9300 systems configured with SSDs, or
those systems configured with an FS15 shelf have cache tier storage.
An Expanded-Storage license is required to expand the active tier storage above the
amount originally installed. You cannot use additional storage without first applying the
appropriate licenses.
Additional licensing information is available in the Data Domain Operating System
Administration Guide and the Data Domain Operating System Command Reference Guide .

The DD OS software manages the drives in packs (groups) of 15. A top down view of
the chassis shows that the disks are arranged in four packs (groups) of 15 drives. The
packs are color coded—pack 1 purple, pack 2 is yellow, pack 3 is green, and pack 4 is
pink. A pack must have the same size drives. Pack 1 is shown within the red rectangle.

Installing the Shelves 17

Expansion shelf cables
Expansion shelves are connected to each other and to the Data Domain controller with
qualified cables. The expansion shelf can be connected to supported Data Domain
systems only by using SAS (serial-attached SCSI) cables. A Data Domain shelf with
qualified disks can be added as an expansion shelf if there are complete drive packs
(15 in a pack) in the correct position.
Note
Shelves for other Dell EMC product lines look identical. Check the product numbers
when unpacking.
DS60 cables
The DS60 shelves use cables with HD-mini-SAS connectors at both ends to connect
the shelves to the controllers that have SAS I/O modules, such as DD4200, DD4500,
DD6300, DD6800, DD7200, DD9300, DD9500, and DD9800 systems.
The DS60 connector is referred as the HD-mini-SAS connector and is same as the I/O
module connectors. These cables are available in 3M, 4M, and 5M lengths.
Use the appropriate length for the connection you are making. Refer to the specific
Installation and Configuration Guide of the shelves for the recommended cable
lengths:
lUse the 3-meter cable in the same rack either to connect to a controller or shelf to
adjacent shelf.
lUse a 3-meter, 4-meter, or 5-meter cable when a DS60 is in another rack.

Special cables must be used when attaching an ES30 to a chain with a DS60.
Specifically, one HOST (circle) connection and one EXPANSION (diamond) cables are
connected between the ES30 LCC and the DS60 LCC connection. Since this is not a
common situation, only two expansion cable lengths are available.

The cable connectors must be secured with their latch assembly.
Safety requirements
WARNING
lThe rack or cabinet should be securely bolted to the floor for personnel
safety; if not, it could tip over. If securing the rack to the floor is not feasible,
and you have less than a fully populated configuration, for personnel safety
you must ensure a low center of gravity.
lData Domain-supplied racks have an interlock that prevents more than one
DS60 from being pulled out of the rack at one time. This is not true for
customer-supplied racks. Do not pull out more than one DS60 at one time,
otherwise there is a much greater risk of the rack tipping.
The following safety requirements must be considered when the unit is mounted in a
rack.
lEnsure that the site requirements have been met. Review the Site requirements on
page 10.
lThe rack design should incorporate stabilizing features suitable to prevent the rack
from tipping or being pushed over during installation or in normal use.
lWhen loading a rack with the units, fill the rack from the bottom up and empty the
rack from the top down.
lThe controller must be in the recommended position shown in the diagrams in
Requirements for combining DS60 and ES30 shelves on page 26.
lAll products in the rack must have front-to-back cooling to prevent air
recirculation.
lThe rack should have a safe electrical distribution system. It must provide
overcurrent protection for the unit and must not be overloaded by the total
Installing the Shelves
Safety requirements 19

number of units installed in the rack. Consideration of the electrical power
consumption rating shown on the nameplate should be used when addressing
these concerns. For more information see Connecting power on page 57.
Racking and cabling
The shelves are 5U (including 1U for the Cable Management Assembly (CMA)) and a
Data Domain controller that supports DS60 shelves are 4U, except for the DD6300,
DD6800 and DD9300, which are 2U. For more information, see your Data Domain
system hardware overview.
Data Domain has adopted recommended racking guidelines.
To provide the best trade-off in terms of serviceability, system expansion, and cabling,
mount the Data Domain controller in the 23U position for the DD4200, DD4500,
DD6300, DD6800, DD7200, DD9300, DD9500, and DD9800 systems.
Note
A 5U space is reserved for the controller in the recommended configurations. This is
to simplify installation and labeling instructions.
You can connect the 3-meter cable attached to the Data Domain controller to any
shelf in the same rack. Install filler panels in unused rack openings.
There are figures showing the various configurations through the remainder of this
document. These are guidelines. Other sections define the rules for different systems.
All rules must be followed but using a recommended configuration may depend on
other restrictions in a specific installation.
After your hardware is installed, route and organize all cables by affixing them to the
side of the rack to facilitate servicing.
Although you can plan for growth by leaving empty positions in the rack, this method
is safe only if the rack is securely bolted to the floor, or if the resulting configuration
has a low center of gravity. When in doubt, do not leave empty spaces, and populate
based on the guidelines in this section.
Rail kit
The DS60 shelf rail kit includes:

Slide rail kit, DS60 Rail kit mounting brackets adjust in length from 24
inches to 32 inches to accommodate different rack
depths.
