EMC VNX Series User manual

This guide describes one of five models available in the VNX Series, the EMC®
VNX7500™. This guide is a parts location guide and provides illustrations of the part
number label locations of orderable parts for the EMC VNX7500 platform. Included in this
parts location guide are also tables describing the individual VNX7500 parts or
components and how these components are identified as either customer replaceable
units (CRUs) or field replaceable units (FRUs).

VNX7500 Block and File platform stackup
VNX7500 Block and File platform stackup
The Block and File (Unified) VNX7500 platform comprises a dual 1U or 2U standby power
supply (SPS), storage processor enclosure (SPE), Control Station, and four Data Mover
enclosures (with two Data Movers per enclosure).
Note: Throughout this guide, figure references are placed in the Part number label location
heading of tables because some of the tables have part number locations, as described in
Table 3 on page 12 and some do not, as described in Table 1 on page 10, for example.
This format is used throughout this guide.
Front view
On the front, viewing from top to bottom, a Block and File (Unified) VNX7500 platform
includes the following hardware:
◆One to two 1U Control Stations
◆One to four 2U Data Mover enclosures with the first 2U Data Mover enclosure having
two Data Movers and the remaining three 2U Data Mover enclosures having from two
to six Data Movers for a total of 8 Data Movers.
◆One 2U SPE chassis with two SPs; each SP has two power supply/cooling modules
and one CPU module
◆One dual 1U standby power supply (SPS)
Note: You use a dual 2U SPS when a 4U DAE with Flash drives is used in a Vault drive
configuration. Otherwise, the dual 1U SPS is used with the 2U or 3U DAE as the Vault
drive.
Figure 1 on page 5 shows an example of the front of a Block and File (Unified) VNX7500.
The DAEs are not shown.

VNX7500 components
Viewing from the bottom to the top, the Block and File (Unified) VNX7500 platform
includes several components. The following sections discuss each component in an
illustration and table. The illustration will show or point out the location of the part
number label on the component. The table will list the part number, describe the
component or part, and tell you if it is a FRU or CRU or both.

Standby power supplies (SPSs)
Two types of SPSs are supported in the VNX7500 platform. The 1U and 2U SPS. Each SPS
is used in a different configuration. The 1U SPS is primarily used in a VNX7500 platform
with a 2U or 3U DAE. The 2U SPS is used in a VNX7500 platform when the 4U DAE is used
as a Vault drive.

Standby power supplies (SPSs)
1U SPS
The Block and File (Unified) VNX7500 platform can support up to two 1U standby power
supplies or a dual 1U SPS to provide temporary emergency power to the Block and File
VNX7500 platform. Part numbers for the 1U SPS are only on the rear of the product.
Figure 5 shows the part number location of the 1U SPS.
