1 Before You Begin
Proper planning and adherence to requirements help ensure a successful installation. Before you begin the
installation, review the steps for getting started and perform all the preliminary tasks.
Introduction to the EqualLogic FS7500
A PS Series group provides iSCSI-accessible block storage. With the latest version of the PS Series firmware
and the addition of an EqualLogic FS7500, the same PS Series group can provide block storage and support for
NAS (Network Attached Storage).
A NAS service can support multiple, scalable NAS file systems. On each file system, you can create multiple
CIFS shares and NFS exports. Clients with the correct credentials can then access the shares and exports
through the NAS service IP address.
The NAS service network configuration requires three networks: client, SAN, and internal.
For security reasons, the internal network is usually a private network, and the client network is separate from
the SAN and internal network. See Network Configuration Overview on page 37.
Figure 1 shows the NAS service hardware configuration.

For each FS7500 Controller, you need 13 network cables.
• For a two-controller installation: 26 cables total.
• For a four-controller installation: 52 cables total.
See Network Configuration Overview on page 37.
1GE network switch Connects devices to a network. Multiple switch stacks are recommended. See
Switch Requirements on page 12.
Rack Requirements
For each EqualLogic FS7500, you must install the BPS and the two controllers in the same rack.
See your FS7500 support provider for detailed information about supported racks.
The rack and the hardware installation must meet the following requirements:
• Only four-post, square-hole or round-hole, tool-less racks are supported by default. The graphics in this
manual show a square-hole rack, but the installation instructions are applicable to round-hole racks.
• Use an industry-standard (for example, CEA-310-E), 48.3 cm (19 inch) rack.
• Tooled racks are supported only if you obtain a different FS7500 Controller rail kit than that which is
provided in the shipping box. This rail kit must include installation instructions and also a list of the hardware
needed for the tooled installation. In addition, the user must reconfigure the FS7500 Backup Power Supply
rail kit to support a tooled rack and must obtain the necessary hardware (screws) to fit their rack. Appendix
1, Custom Racking Instructions, describes how to convert the rail kit to fit a tooled rack.
• The rack must be rated for 540 kg (1200 pounds) static load or greater.
• The minimum rack depth is 100 cm (40 inches) from the front to the back of the rack.
• The distance between the inside of the front and back rack posts (the mounting surfaces) must be 61 cm (24
inches) to 90 cm (36 inches).
• Secure the rack to the floor for added stability.
• There must be at least 4.1 cm (1.6 inches) between the rack door and the front of the hardware to
accommodate the front bezel.
• The rack (with installed hardware) must meet the safety requirements of UL 60950-1 and
IEC 60950-1.
• Mount the hardware in a horizontal position, or you void your warranty and support contract.
11

Switch Requirements
At a minimum, you can connect all the network ports in an EqualLogic FS7500 to the same physical switch.
However, this configuration is appropriate only for demonstration or testing purposes because the network switch
is a single point of failure. Dell recommends that you use a highly-available network switch configuration for the
client, SAN, and internal network connections.
Ideally, you want a network switch configuration in which a switch failure does not disrupt the availability of the
NAS service. This means that no single switch should have all the client, SAN, or internal network connections.
See Network Connection Requirements and Recommendations on page 38.
Required Tools
You might need tools to install the controllers and BPS in a rack. These tools are not provided in the shipping
box.
• #2 Phillips screwdriver
12
EqualLogic FS7500 Installation and Setup 1 Before You Begin

2 Hardware Rack Mounting
For proper operation, you must install the EqualLogic FS7500 hardware (two FS7500 Controller nodes and one
FS7500 Backup Power Supply unit) in a rack.
Figure 9 shows the BPS and two controllers installed in a rack. Your FS7500 installation should look similar to
this when complete.
Figure 9: EqualLogic FS7500 Installed in a Rack
Guidelines for Installing Mounting Rails in a Rack
Before you install the EqualLogic FS7500 hardware in a rack, you must plan where to install the mounting rails
for each controller and for the BPS. Each device is a 1U device.
Dell recommends that you install the rails according to the following guidelines:
13

• Make sure rack meets the requirements in Rack Requirements on page 11. The graphics in this manual show
a square-hole rack, but the installation instructions are applicable to round-hole racks.
• If you are installing multiple sets of EqualLogic FS7500 hardware in the same rack, separate each pair of
controllers with a BPS.
• Make sure that the BPS and the controllers are located close enough together that the cabling between the
components can be easily installed. For best results, use the shortest network cables possible.
• Install hardware starting from the bottom of the rack.
• Install a maximum of four EqualLogic FS7500 configurations in a rack.
Note: Using the rail kits shipped with the EqualLogic FS7500, you can install the controllers and BPS only in a
four-post, tool-less, square-hole or round-hole rack.
You can install an EqualLogic FS7500 in a tooled rack only if you contact your PS Series support provider and
obtain a different controller rail kit. In addition, you must reconfigure the BPS rail kit to support a tooled rack, as
described in Appendix 1, Custom Racking Instructions.
Steps for Installing an FS7500 Backup Power Supply into a Rack
Before you begin, obtain the FS7500 Backup Power Supply (BPS) rail kit. See Shipping Box Contents on page 7.
Note: Even if you have an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system in your lab, you must install the BPS.
Caution: You need at least two individuals to install the BPS in a rack. The BPS is heavy, and you must keep it
level to install it properly.
Warning: Make sure the voltage of your power source is compatible with the voltage rating of the BPS. If the
power source voltage is too low, the BPS will not activate. If the voltage is too high, the BPS can be
destroyed.
Follow these steps to mount a FS7500 BPS in a rack using the rail kits:
1. Position the left and right BPS rails in the orientation in which you will install the rails. See Positioning the
BPS Rails on page 15.
2. Attach the rails to the rack posts. See Attaching the BPS Rails to the Rack on page 15.
3. Place the BPS chassis on a stable surface.
4. Remove the power modules from the BPS chassis. See Removing the Power Modules from the BPS Chassis
on page 16.
5. Slide the empty BPS chassis into the rack and secure the chassis to the rack. See Installing the Empty BPS
Chassis Into a Rack on page 17.
6. For each power module, connect the battery. See Connecting the Battery in a BPS Power Module on page
18.
