Internal system addresses Factory values
Welcome
The system you are about to install comes factory pre-loaded with EMC®Celerra®Network Server
software (DART) and CLARiiON®storage array software (FLARE®).
Software upgrade
If you bought a software maintenance contract, you are entitled to software upgrades only after the
installation, Celerra Startup Assistant (CSA), and registration have successfully completed.
Site preparation
Complete the site preparation by verifying the following activities before installation:
• Network connections
• Power requirements
• Rack space requirements
Default IP addresses
The system components communicate with each other using a private Internet Protocol (IP) network.
By default, this network uses the IP addresses listed in the following table.
If your existing IP network uses addresses on these subnets, you are required to change the private
network addresses of your Celerra Network Server to different subnets before the installation.

Installation overview steps
For more information, refer to Celerra Tools on http://Powerlink.EMC.com
Installation steps:
1. Review and complete the Celerra worksheet, pages 29-34, and verify that the site is
properly prepared for the installation of your Celerra NS-480.
About 20 minutes.
2. If your Celerra NS-480 is to be installed in a customer-supplied rack, use this document to unpack
the system from the mini-rack shipping container, remove the reusable rails, and install the system
in your available rack.
About 40 minutes.
Note: If your Celerra NS-480 system arrived at your site in a pre-installed cabinet and is
previously cabled, verify the cabling before you begin the use of your system.
Cable your system according to the instructions and illustrations contained in this document.
Ensure that all of your cables are seated securely.
About 45 minutes.
3. When you install your Celerra NS-480, use the Celerra Startup Assistant (CSA) to pre-configure
your system. The latest version of the CSA can be downloaded from the Celerra Tools section
on Powerlink®. The CSAis also on the Celerra Applications & Tools CD.
About 15 minutes.
4. Register your system with the service provider. If you do not register your system now, using the
Celerra Startup Assistant, your request for support from your service provider will be delayed.
You can also register your Celerra NS-480 by downloading the Registration Wizard on Powerlink.
About 5 minutes.
Implementation step:
5. After you have registered your Celerra NS-480 system, you must configure the system for
production. You can use the Provisioning Wizard in the CSA, one of the several pre-packaged
implementation configurations based on common usages, or your own implementation using
Unisphere to configure your system. At the end of each one of these configurations,
your system will be ready for production.

Unpacking the Celerra NS-480 system
If your Celerra NS-480 system was purchased and shipped in an EMC 40 Unit cabinet
(70 in. in height; 1 unit =1.75 in.), start on page 15 of this document and confirm that the cables are
installed correctly and securely; otherwise start unpacking your Celerra NS-480 system from the
disposable mini-rack shipping container.

2. Carefully set aside each component as
it is removed from the disposable
mini-rack shipping container.
Caution: Two people are required to remove the components. Only remove screws holding
the components in place at this time. Do not remove the screws holding the rails in place; this
may cause damage to the components. Only remove one component at a time.
3. The ganged rails
remain in the mini-rack shipping
container at this time.
1. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, remove only 7 screws per side. Keep the removed screws
to install the components in your rack.

Note: The rails must be aligned carefully, and two people are required to install the components.
1. Insert the rail slide and seat both rail extensions into the rear channel of your rack. We
recommend placing the top rail pin into the hole just above a U marker.
2. Align the front of the ganged rail as shown. Insert retention screws in the front and
retention screws in the back of each rail. See the following illustration.
3. Do not fully tighten the retention screws at this time. Allow some adjustment space for the
installation of the components.
Install the retaining screws
After inserting the rail
extensions, install 2 screws
on each side of your rack
to hold the rails in place.
Install 3 retaining screws
on each side of your rack
to hold the ganged rails in place.

Powering the EMC Celerra NS-480 system
For more information, refer to Celerra Tools on http://Powerlink.EMC.com
Power Up procedure for NS-480
Note: If there are no other components in the cabinet, verify that the cabinet circuit breakers are in
the ON position. If you are installing the NS-480 into an existing cabinet that contains other
components, do not turn off the cabinet circuit breakers. Ensure that the switches on SPS A and
SPS B are in the OFF position.
Connect the power cables as follows:
A yellow circle with a number indicates the power cable number.
1. Connect power supplyA on the first disk-array enclosure (DAE) to
standby power supply (SPS) A .
2. Connect the power supply B on the DAE to SPS B.
3. Connect storage processor (SP)A power cable on the SP enclosure to SPS A.
4. Connect SP B power cable on the SP enclosure to SPS B.
5. Connect SPSA cable to the right PDP.
6. Connect SPS B cable to the left PDP.
Turn SPS A and SPS B switches ON.
7. Connect the power cables for the blade enclosure to the PDP.
8. Connect the Control Station to the left PDP.
