Steps 3 and 4 do not apply if you are installing H610S nodes.
1Install the rails.

Install the chassis.
See Rail Kit Installation instructions.
Note:
• Ensure that you have installed the rack according to the safety instructions from the manufacturer.
• Ensure that the rack is stabilized. The heaviest equipment should be at the bottom of the rack.
• Follow proper grounding practices to avoid risk of electric shock.
• Follow proper airflow and cooling requirements to prevent hardware from overheating.
• Installing the chassis requires two people.
Install hardware |Stage 2
An H410S cluster requires a minimum for four nodes in a chassis. If you are expanding
your existing installation, you need a minimum of one node and one chassis.
Steps 1 and 2 do not apply if you are adding a new node to an existing two rack unit (2U), four-node chassis.
Install nodes in the chassis.
Install drives for storage nodes.

The installation graphic
is only for illustrative
purposes. Your actual
node might dier based
on what you ordered.

Connect the node to a 1GbE network using
two RJ45 connectors.
Connect the node to a 10/25GbE network using
two SFP28 or SFP+ cables.
Connect the node to a 1GbE network using an
RJ45 connector in the IPMI port.
Connect both power cables to the node.
Plug the power cables to a suitable power
outlet. Press the power button at the front of
the chassis.
Note: It takes approximately five minutes and 30 seconds
for the node to boot.

If the airflow vents at the rear of the chassis are blocked by cables or labels, it can lead to premature
component failures due to overheating.
1Cable the node
If you are adding nodes to an existing installation, ensure that the cabling and network
configuration of the nodes that you add are identical to the existing installation.
Cable the node |Stage 3
Connect two CAT5e or higher cables in ports
A and B for management connectivity.
Connect two SFP28/SFP+ cables or transceivers
in ports C and D for storage connectivity.
(Optional, recommended)
Connect a CAT5e cable in the IPMI port for
out-of-band management connectivity.

It takes approximately six minutes for the node to boot.
Steps 2 and 3 do not apply if you are installing H610S nodes.
Configure the node |Stage 4
Required only for H610S nodes.
Attach a keyboard and monitor
to the node.
Note: Ensure that the node is powered on.
In the terminal user interface (TUI) that is
displayed, configure the network and cluster settings
for the node by using the on-screen navigation.
Note: You must get the IP address of the node from the TUI. You need this in Stage 5.
After you save the settings, the node is in a pending state, and can be added to a cluster.
See the NetApp Element Software Setup Guide for configuration instructions. You can
access the latest version of the Setup Guide from the NetApp SolidFire Resources page.
Configure out-of-band management using the
Baseboard Management Controller (BMC).
i. Use a web browser and navigate to the default BMC IP address: 192.168.0.120
ii Log in using the following default credentials: User name: root Password: calvin
iii From the node management screen, navigate to Settings > Network Settings, and
configure the network parameters for the out-of-band management port.
See How to access BMC and change IP address on H610S.
