Installation Environment
The OceanStor virtual intelligent storage 6000 series virtual intelligent storage system (hereinafter
referred to as the VIS6000 ) includes two products: VIS6300 and VIS6600. The VIS6600 is superior to the
VIS6300 in hardware configuration and has more powerful capability of processing services. Unless
otherwise specified, this document takes the VIS6000 with the AC power as an example.
This document takes the VIS6000 that is installed to the N610E-22 cabinet as an example.
This document is based on the prerequisite that the N610E-22 cabinet is well installed and grounded.
Reserve the space of at least 100 cm between the cabinet and the wall and 120 cm between the cabinets
for the convenience of maintenance, ventilation, and heat dissipation.
Before installing the device into the cabinet, ensure that air in the cabinet exchanges with air in the
machine room. It is suggested to reserve the space of 1 U above the device and below the device.
N610E-22 Cabinet

The N610E-22 cabinet is equipped with a captive nut mount bar.
The material list includes grounding cables and power cables.

The VIS6000 supports Gigabit Ethernet (GE) port modules and Fiber Channel (FC) port modules.
With full configuration, the VIS6000 can be configured with six port modules:
●Two FC port modules + four GE port modules
●Four FC port modules + two GE port modules
●Six GE port modules
The VIS6000 provides ten interface cards with five on each side. The interface cards are numbered. The
numbers are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 from top to bottom. The interface cards that are numbered 0, 1, and 2 are
used for carrying port modules. The interface cards that are numbered 3 and 4 are used for carrying
system disks.
The FC port module and GE port module can be installed in the slots of the interface card without
restriction. The FC port module or the GE port module can be installed in slot 0,1, or 2.
According to the actual application environment choose the types and numbers of port modules. If the
interface card does not carry port modules, use a filler panel to hide the interface card. The controller A
and B must carry port modules in the same mode. The sequence of port modules on each side in the
VIS6000 must be consistent. In this way, the 1+1 redundant backup can be achieved.

a：The hot-swap control buttons on the GE port module and the FC port module are reserved. The current version does not
support the use of the button. Do not perform any operation on the button; otherwise, system services might be disrupted.
b：The management port module provides two management network ports and one mute alarm button. The left network port
on the management port module belongs to controller A, and the right network port belongs to controller B.
c：AC power interface (API).
d：DC power interface (DPI).
