3 | Safety and compliance
3.1 | Safe handling
•An unpopulated enclosure can weigh up to 46kg (101lb). Use appropriate lifting methods.
•A fully populated enclosure weighs 135kg (298lb). You must lift the enclosure when the
drawers are empty and latched closed. Do not attempt to lift the enclosure when populated
with drives.
•When closing the drawers, do so firmly, ensuring the latches are engaged.
•Please use belt straps to lift the enclosure out of the box.
•Do not try to lift the enclosure by yourself.
•Use appropriate lifting methods. Before lifting the enclosure:
oRemove DDICs drive carriers from drawers and verify the drawers are closed and firmly
locked.
oUse a minimum of three people to lift the enclosure using the lifting straps provided.
oAvoid lifting the enclosure using the handles on any of the CRUs because they are not
designed to take the weight. Lift from underneath the main enclosure.
•Observe the lifting hazard label affixed to the storage enclosure.
3.2 | Safety
•This equipment is for installation in a Restricted Access Location only.
A restricted access location is where:
oAccess can only be gained by service persons or users who have been fully instructed on
the reasons for the restrictions applied to the location and on any precautions that must
be taken.
oAccess is through the use of a tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and is
controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
Caution
If this equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the
manufacturer warranty provided by the equipment may be impaired.
•All drives and rear modules are part of the 5U84 storage enclosure and must only be removed
when a replacement can be immediately added. The system must not be run without all rear
modules in place.
•Permanently unplug the enclosure before you move it or if you think that it has become
damaged in any way.
•Always remove the drives, Power Supply Units (PSUs), controllers, and System fans to
minimize weight before you move the enclosure.
•A safe electrical ground connection must be provided to the power supply cords.
Important
The enclosure MUST be grounded before applying power.

Lyve Rack R1 Installation Guide

•The plug on the power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the
socket outlets are located near the equipment and are easily accessible.
•When powered by multiple AC sources, disconnect all power supplies for complete isolation.
•In order to comply with applicable safety, emission, and thermal requirements no covers
should be removed, and rear panel must be populated with plug-in modules.
•The power connection should always be disconnected prior to insertion or removal of a PSU
from the enclosure.
•Do not attempt to disassemble the rear sub-chassis from the enclosure.
•Provide a suitable power source with electrical overload protection to meet the requirements
laid down in the technical specification.
•If any component of the product fails, consult Seagate support.
•For North American use, each branch circuit must be rated for 20A.
•The equipment is suitable for connection to an IT power system (Norway), when mounted in a
Restricted Access Location where equipotential bonding has been applied by a service person.
Important
The optional RJ45 socket on the controller module is for Ethernet connection only
and must not be connected to a telecommunications network.
Caution
•Operating temperatures inside the enclosure drawers can reach up to 60°C. Be careful
while opening drawers and removing drive carriers.
•Double pole/neutral fusing in PSUs.
•Risk of explosion if the battery within the controller is replaced with an incorrect
type. Dispose used batteries according to the instructions. There are no user
serviceable parts within the controller.
•Due to product acoustics ear protection must be worn during prolonged exposure to
the product in operation.
•To prevent over-turning, drawer interlocks stop users from opening both drawers at

Figure 6: Front of 5U84 storage enclosure anti-tamper locks and drawer latches
To install the 5U84 storage enclosure:
1. Identify 7U of rack space preferably as low in the rack as possible to keep the center of gravity
low to avoid toppling. Identify the correct orientation of the enclosure. The front of the 5U84 must
have sufficient space to open the drawer outside. You must identify the front and rear side of the
rack.
2. Install the rail kits for 5U84 and both servers. Installing all rail kits first helps in confined spaces.
The server rail kits are in the server box and the 5U84 rail kits are in the 5U84 system pack box.
Ensure the front of the rail kit is installed in alignment of the front of the rack.
3. With assistance, lift the 5U84 out from the box using the lifting straps.
4. From the rear remove all the 5U84 rear modules to reduce the weight of the enclosure. Care
should be observed while handling these items to avoid static or mechanical damage. Do not touch
any exposed pins or circuit boards. Do not drop any rear modules.
5. Slide the 5U84 onto the 5U84 rail kit and secure 5U84 to the rail kit to ensure it does not move
when the further items are installed into it.
6. From the rear, insert the 5U84 rear modules. Insert all controllers, fan modules, and PSU
modules.
7. From the front, only the drives that came on the same pallet should be installed in this 5U84 as
these drives are pre-configured for this Lyve Rack. The drives must be inserted into the drive slot
where they were factory preconfigured for both the top and bottom drawer according to Figure 7
and Figure 8. Note the top drawer has drive 0 on the front left and each successive row has the
lowest number also on the left. Likewise, the bottom drawer has drive 42 on the front left and
each successive row has the lowest number also on the left. The term "front" and "left", is from
the perspective of the installer standing in front of an opened drawer.

a. Ensure anti-temper locks of the top drawer are unlocked using the supplied T20
screwdriver.
b. Using drawer latches, push both latches of the same drawer towards the center of the
drawer.
c. Slowly pull top drawer towards yourself.
d. Insert all DDICs starting from top drawer with drives at the front left of each row leaving
no empty drive slots paying attention to inserting drives in ascending order.
e. Repeat until all rows on the top drawer are full. Visually re-check that the DDIC sequence
numbers match the figure.
f. Close the drawer and lock it.
g. Repeat the steps a through f for the bottom drawer.
Figure 7: Populated the top drawer
Populate the top drawer first. Close and lock the
drawer.
Figure 8: Populated the bottom drawer
Populate the bottom drawer after filling and
closing the top drawer. Close and lock the
drawer.
8. The anti-tamper locks do not have to be used. If they are used to lock the drawer, store the T20
screwdriver safely afterwards. Now that all DDIC and rear modules are inserted, the rack
installation can progress to the next stage.
5.4 | Server installation
Depending upon your server configuration, follow instructions provided in the Server Installation
chapter of SUPERMICRO SUPERSERVER USER MANUAL 6019P-WTR OR SUPERMICRO SUPERSERVER USER MANUAL 6019U-TRTto
unpack and install the servers into the rack.
Refer to Figure 2 above. The servers are not configured identically. Hence, you must first identify
server B box and rack the server directly above the 5U84 storage enclosure. After racking server B,
identify server A box, and rack it directly above server B.

Lyve Rack R1 Installation Guide

5.5 | Network switch and other components
If not already installed and operational, install other components needed for the Lyve Rack system
setup according to their respective installation instructions. Consult with your Solution Partner or
Seagate Systems Engineer for more details.
You must procure your own QSFP28 cables for the Public Data Interface connection to the high-speed
switch. Either you can use a QSFP28 Y cable or two QSFP28 100GbE to 100GbE cables.
If Y cable is used, the high-speed switch port needs to be made aware of this, by preconfiguring the
high-speed switch port as a Breakout Port before attaching the Y cable to it. For example, if the high-
speed switch port is a 100G, it should be configured as 2x50G. For information on how this can be
done, refer to your high-speed switch user guide.
