Preface
This Site Preparation Guide is part of a four-book documentation set that supports installa-
tion, operation, troubleshooting, and servicing of the StorageTek 9176 and D173 Disk Sub-
system. The Site Preparation Guide provides order information and some instructions for
preparing your installation site. To plan for an installation, refer to the Planning Guide, part
number MO9113Ae.
System operators and service technicians should use these books and follow all applicable
site preparation requirements prior to installing the 9176 controller tray and drive tray, or the
new D173 Disk Subsystem with its Disk Controller Array and drive tray extensions. Readers
should understand Fiber Channel and network technology and have extensive knowledge of
computer system operation, maintenance, and repair.
A portion of the product described in this book is a licensed product of our supplier, which
due to contractual reasons MUST remain unnamed.
Design efforts will continue to improve products as new technology, components, software,
and firmware become available. StorageTek, therefore, reserves the right to change specifi-
cations without prior notice.
All features, functions, and operations described herein may not be marketed by StorageTek
in all parts of the world. In some instances, photographs and figures are of equipment proto-
types. Therefore, before using this document, consult your StorageTek representative for in-
formation that is applicable and current.
StorageTek rebranding has taken place to use the latest Client Server Disk terminology, and

Nomenclature
Disk storage subsystems (referred to in this book) are:
1. The StorageTek 9176 Disk Subsystem, which comes in three hardware models with for-
mal names as follows.
9170 001
9176 001
9176 002
StorageTek 9170 Disk Array
StorageTek 9176 001 Disk Controller
StorageTek 9176 002 ENTPR Disk Controller
2. The StorageTek D173 Disk Subsystem, which comes in two hardware models with for-
mal names as follows.
D173 001
9170 001
StorageTek D173 Disk Controller Array
StorageTek 9170-001 or 9170-002 Disk Array
The storage management software that enables one to assign LUNs, diagnose problems, and

configure and manage the subsystem is called: StorageTek Object Manager. It has various
software components (for example: Client, Agent, RDAC, NVSRAM, and OMutil for the
management station) that enable communications between hosts, controllers, drives, and the
other network devices. All these components must work together for well-orchestrated data
management and performance. StorageTek and its suppliers have worked hard to validate
and certify their 9176 and D173 storage subsystem configurations.
As technical advances are made, the software becomes more sophisticated and capable of
providing more value for the customer. These new features are described in the StorageTek
Object Manager Concept Guide, P/N 96035. StorageTek Object Manager is currently at the
7.10 level, with the 8.0 level staged for release in Q4, 2001. The StorageTek Object Manager
8.0 Concept Guide is P/N 96067. As new software manuals are released, they will be avail-
able on the engineering web page at:
Event monitoring, heterogeneous attach (with additional volumes and storage partitioning
(aka LUN Mapping) capabilities), path failover, as well as new database features (point-in-
time copy/snapshot) are explained in the documentation and are available in new software
offerings from StorageTek.
This manual primarily covers hardware, and may be thought of as the hardware systems as-
surance guide. The equivalent software systems assurance guide is the StorageTek Object
Manager Planning Guide, currently P/N MO9113Ae. This manual lists the system require-
ments as well as the patches necessary to host your StorageTek hardware and software.
Education and Training
A class is available to teach installation and maintenance; and CD ROMs are available to up-
date students on the latest Disk Subsystem product releases.

About the Site Preparation Guide
This document provides information about ordering and site requirements for installation
of the StorageTek™ 9176 and D173 Disk Subsystems.
Introduction
The 9176 and D173 come in a 19 inch rackmount cabinet, already configured for the
host(s). The 9176 always has at least one 9176 controller tray and one 9170 drive tray.
Officially the controller is called the StorageTek 9176 Disk (or ENTPR Disk) Controller
and the drive tray is called the 9170 Disk Array, however, throughout the 9176’s set of
technical documentation, these devices may simply be referred to as a controller tray or
drive tray.
The D173 Disk Subsystem is an entry level disk subsystem, which has two 2772 controller
circuit boards installed into a drive tray. This combination is now called a D173 Disk
Controller Array. One or two 9170 Disk Array “extensions” may be added for a maximum
total of 30 drives (available in 72GB or 180GB drive module sizes). The D173 also uses
the 7.10 level of Object Manager, which enables customers to activate the heterogeneous
storage environment capabilities. Simply put, this allows one to network their storage with
a variety of different kinds of operating systems, for example Solaris, Windows NT,
Windows 2000, HP-UX, AIX, SGI, LINUX, and Netware.
When ordering Disk Subsystems it is important to be aware of performance vs. capacity.
Customers may strive for low cost—buying based on cost per MB; or they may purchase a
higher numbers of spindles and smaller drive sizes for higher performance. Or, they may
select factors (such as cache) to improve performance, but yet keep costs down. Also
bandwidth is primarily a factor of the number of controllers and paths from the host to the
backend storage. Please be aware of all of these issues when helping customers, so that we
place the best possible solution into the customer’s business environment.
Various types of hardware and software components can be ordered depending on your
business needs. The following section provides some information to facilitate your
decision making, and help you select the right hardware (and software components) for
your computing environment.
To fully understand this guide and all other technical documents, it is recommended that
system operators and service technicians have extensive knowledge of Fibre Channel and
network technology.

Order Information
When ordering via the Siebel configurator or manually, you will need to make a decision
on:
what kind of rackmount cabinet you want
•
the amount of storage needed
•
the type of channel cable to use
•
•
the amount of hosts you want to attach to your storage.
Assuming you want 720 Gigabytes of storage, and have 2 servers running a Solaris
operating environment, you might decide to order:
an M03 rackmount cabinet, which may be referred to as CBNT M03. The feature
code (M03R) will need to be entered into the ordering system that you are using.
•
NOTE
It would also be perfectly acceptable to order the CBNT M02 (M02R)
with this example. In either case, if using the Siebel configurator, the
system will automatically bring up the next selections for you.
one 9176 controller (feature code 9176-002) with 512 MB cache, which enables
you to connect to 4 host inputs and operate with higher bandwidth (greater
performance). This configuration also enables you to grow your storage as your
business grows.
•
•
two 9170 disk arrays (feature code 9170-001) with ten 36 gigabyte drives each. The
feature code for this selection will need to be ordered 4 times (10 X 2 X 36 = 720
gigabytes).
NOTE
One could also select one 9170 disk array with ten 72 gigabyte drives, or
one drive tray only five 180 gigabyte drives. 180 GB drives can maximize
your cost per MB; however, it puts more data on fewer spindles and may
reduce the overall performance of your disk subsystem.
three Host Kits with HBAs and drivers, as needed based on the type of servers you
have. For example two HBAs for one server, and one HBA for the other could
require that you choose a Sun PCI card for FC optical (shortwave) cables (feature
code SPG3).
•
•
three 50 meter Fibre Channel optical (shortwave) cables (feature code OA13) to
attach the HBAs to your 9176 Disk Subsystem. Two FC cables will go to the
path between the host and the back end RAID storage.
Refer to Appendix A, which has a portion of the information contained on the Product
Configuration Document (PCD), or go to the StorageTek KnowledgeMap for the latest
information on feature codes.

Path Failover
StorageTek Disk Subsystem’s use the storage management software package known as
StorageTek Object Manager 7.10. It contains OMclient, OMagent, OMutil, and RDAC.
The first three software applications handle the organization and monitoring of data; and
RDAC is essentially the “path manager” working along with NVSRAM and AVT to route
server-requested information over any path possible.

NOTE
RDAC works on Windows NT, 2000, and on Solaris platforms. Other servers/
operating systems have a similar host-specific software application.
In the event of a loss of a hardware device or cable-path along the way, alternate paths
may be used. RDAC maintains a list machine names, and automatically inquires and links
to them via alternate paths when the primary path is lost. The following illustration depicts
how RDAC (and its companion software) works.

See Appendix A for more feature codes for the StorageTek 9176 Disk Subsystem. When
ordering a storage subsystem, it is advised that you create a system floorplan and measure
the cable-layout distances between your host servers, hubs, switches, and the storage
subsystems. Also remember that there are network trade-offs that you may face depending
on what you attach and how you attach it. Performance is limited by your bandwidth; and
both network activity and storage capacity have an impact on your overall system
performance. Consult you StorageTek representative for advice on how best to configure
your computing network.
StorageTek’s partitioning software can also help ensure that your network runs as
efficiently as possible; and the right marriage between hardware and software is of
paramount importance to StorageTek and your business operations.
A new heterogeneous level of Object Manager 7.10 software is now available. This
software, in combination with the 4.01 level of firmware enables multiple hosts to be
attached to a StorageTek Disk subsystem. Host attachments may now have up to 16
storage partitions with a maximum of 32 volumes per partition, and up to a maximum of
128 volumes overall. For more information, refer to the reference documents and to the
power point 9176 configuration presentation, P/N 96034.

Cabinet Description
StorageTek provides a 19 inch rackmount cabinet for the Disk Storage environment. The
cabinet conform to the EIA-310-D standard using the modular unit U to indicate panel
height. The unit U equals 44.45mm or 1.75 inches. The CBNT M03 is a fixed 39U size. It
allow you to easily add more storage in the future. The Siebel configurator will not allow
you to go beyond 39U of space without ordering an additional cabinet. Each 445 mm wide
9176 Disk Controller uses 4U of internal vertical space and each 449 mm wide 9170 Disk
Array or D173 Disk Controller Array uses 3U of internal vertical space.
NOTE
StorageTek’s earlier M01 and M02 cabinets are both being discontinued. Most
of the same information applies, however, they will soon be replaced with new
more cost-efficient cabinets once current stock has been depleted.
CBNT M03 Power Source
Each cabinet has redundant power distribution, and comes with two different types of AC
power connections.
The CBNT M03 is connected to the AC power source by a NEMA power cord on all
North American installations. The customer (or local StorageTek office) is to provide the
power connector for all International installations.
The cabinet's power distribution unit (PDU) supplies AC power to the installed devices.
The following lists the feature codes and part numbers for the cabinet’s power cords.

Unique Situations
Customer Cabinets In the event that you are installing into existing customer
cabinets, make sure that they are 19 in. (482.6 mm) rackmount cabinets that conform to
EIA-310-D. Also ensure that mounting rails accommodate a minimum internal width of
45 cm (17.72 in.) and a depth of at least 51.5 cm (20.3 in.). At this minimum depth, you
need unobstructed rear cabinet access for the removal of FRUs (otherwise you will have to
remove the 9176 controller or 9170 disk array to allow room to remove FRUs from the
back of the units). Ideally, it is more practical to have at least 66 cm (26 in.) of depth to
allow adequate space to remove FRUs.
NOTE
StorageTek’s adjustable mounting rails require 450 mm (17.72 in.) width
between front-facing vertical mounting flanges. Also the depth from the front to
the back mounting flange must be between 660 mm (26 in) to 787 mm (31 in).
Most cabinets have their own custom mounting rails, which may be used, provided they
have enough shelf support to accommodate weight, device widths from 445 mm to 450
mm (17.5 to 17.7 inches), and depths of at least 660 mm (26 in.) without obstructions.
Floor and Ceiling Mounting In some customer sites, the cabinet may be required to
be secured to the floor. The M03 rackmount cabinets has a total of eight weld-nuts
underneath the baseplate. You may use 1/2-13 bolts to secure a mounting bracket to the
baseplate. At least four holes are available to secure the cabinet to the floor, and two holes
are available to secure to the ceiling. Refer to the M03 Rackmount Cabinet User’s Guide
for hole locations and more information about this feature.

consumption, especially with various unknowns. As shown above, the actual
maximum operating power is slightly less than the maximum operating current
multiplied by the current (220V times 1A=220VA), however, when calculating
the maximum operating power, we recommend that you use the KVA figures

9170/D173 Current Rating
The 9170 and D173 are rated at 3.6 amperes at 120 volts and 1.8 amperes at 240 volts.
Actual current drawn varies slightly depending on the number and type of drive modules
you have installed. Drive modules rated at 1.2 amperes at 12 volts DC have little impact
on the overall rating of the 9170 Disk Array operating on a 220 volt circuit.
NOTE
StorageTek’s 9170/D173 drive modules have been designed for a staggered
start-up since this is the time of the greatest current demand. This helps ensure
that current does not exceed design ratings during power up.

9176/D173 Disk Subsystem Current Calculations
With the 9176 Disk Controller (at 220v) pulling one ampere and the 9170 or D173 each
pulling 1.8 amperes, a rackmount cabinet with one controller and ten disk arrays would
draw a total of 19 amperes. These amps are supplied by two grids of the power distribution
unit (PDU), with each grid rated at 16 amps. The lower grid would supply one controller
and five disk arrays (1 + 1.8 + 1.8 + 1.8 + 1.8 + 1.8) for a total of 10 amps, and the upper
grid would supply the remaining five disk arrays (5 times 1.8) for a total of 9 amps. A 30
drive D173 Disk Subsystem (with its 20 amp PDU) pulls 5.4 amps (11 amps at 110v).
9176/D173 Disk Subsystem Maximum Operating Power
Calculations
When calculating maximum operating power (the time just after the start-up power time
zone), use 329 VA for the 9176 Disk Controller and 495 VA for the 9170 Disk Array and
For example, if calculating for a fully configured 9176 Disk Subsystem with two hundred
72 Gigabytes drive (i.e. twenty 9170 Disk Arrays), one would add the controller’s 0.329
KVA to twenty times the disk array’s 0.495 KVA. The formula becomes:
0.329 + 20 (0.495) = 0.329 + 9.90 = 10.23 KVA
The maximum operating power consumption, therefore, for a fully configured 14.4
Terabyte 9176 Disk Subsystem (1 disk controller and 20 disk arrays) is 10.23 KVA.
Knowing that 10.23 KVA is the maximum operating power, we can figure the current for
the two cabinets as follows.

Basically, the "load" is the controller modules, fan modules, and all ten drive
modules. Each of these 9170 components adds up to a combined maximum of
2.1 amps of AC current drawn at 240 volts. Note also that the relationship
between AC and DC power requires one to use the .707 or 1.414 conversion
factors. Use this to interpret such statements as: (0.495 kVA or 350.0 W).

Power Cord Routing Notes
Review this power cord routing information before installing a StorageTek 9176 or D173
rackmount device (controller tray or drive tray).
Rackmount Power
The D173 rackmount cabinet has two power grids in a caboose-mounted power
distribution unit (PDU); and the 9176 (M03) rackmount cabinet has two AC power
distribution units mounted vertically along the side members. Each separate grid (see
components, ensuring ongoing data access in the event of a power failure to one of the
customer-supplied circuits (assuming two separate power sources/circuits).
Figure 4 D173 PDU for distributing Power to Devices throughout the Cabinet
NOTE
The following illustrations show various PDU power connectors available
that attach to the customer-supplied power receptacles.
The customer’s power source should come from separate and isolated
power circuits to maximize power redundancy and optimize the Disk
Subsystem data availability.

Rackmount Considerations
The rackmount cabinet’s PDU supplies power for the left or the right sides of each
redundant device’s DC power supply. The 9176 Disk Controller, 9170 Disk Array, and
D173 Disk Controller Array have their own power cord. The StorageTek Disk Subsystems
come fully intact, however, if additional storage devices are to be added to the cabinet, you
will need to route power cords and FC cables to the controller tray or drive tray. Refer to
the appropriate rackmount cabinet user’s guide and to the StorageTek 9176 Installation
Guide or D173 User’s Guide for further information.
NOTE
These documents are available online through StorageTek’s Customer
Resource Center (CRC), on StorageTek’s Documents on CD, and comes
on the CD that accompanies the product.
IMPORTANT
To ensure redundancy, connect the PDUs in the cabinet to two,
independent power sources. Connect the power cords from each tray to
separate PDUs or PDU grids in the cabinet.
Illustrations are provided in the Installation Guide to facilitate non-StorageTek cabinet
installations. Whenever possible, use the Fibre Channel cable routing shown to ensure that
the StorageTek Object Manager diagnostics identify the hardware components properly.
This will facilitate troubleshooting (properly identifying the faulty component) of your
StorageTek Disk Subsystem, if it becomes necessary.
Component redundancy and path redundancy enable your StorageTek Disk Subsystem to
be available to you 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and 365 days a year (366 days on
leap years). For best results, ensure that your hardware components are monitored through
Object Manager software or similiar storage management application. Also make sure that
your installation has adequate service and cooling clearances, and adheres to all power and
environmental requirements.

Drive Interface Connectors
The controller tray contains four GBIC or DB-9 host interface cards aka drive minihub
two GBIC or DB-9 connectors respectively and supports 8-bit and 16-bit interface
protocol.
Each interface card represents a single drive channel. The drive channels are set up in
pairs to support redundant drive loop configurations, or two data paths to each drive. Each
pair of channels can support up to 10 drive trays, containing 10 drives apiece, or a
maximum of 100 drives. Thus, a fully configured controller tray can support up to 20 drive
trays (10 drive trays per channel pair), or a maximum of 200 drives.
NOTE
72 gigabyte drives would equal a total storage capacity of 14.4 terabytes. Note:
Some of this storage capacity is used to format the drives. 180 gigabyte drives
would equal 36 terabytes of 9176 storage capacity; however, StorageTek
encourages individuals to be aware of the performance requirements as well as
the time required to conduct a backup before maximizing storage capacity.
You can connect the drive channel cables to either the upper or lower connectors on
each card. Leave the remaining connector on each card unoccupied for future upgrades

Figure 12 9170’s Channel Card - Interface Connectors
Refer to the StorageTek™ 9170 Disk Array User’s Guide (P/N 95960) for information
about status lights, and cabling going from the 9176 Disk Controller to the 9170 Disk
Array.
Briefly, the 9176 Fibre Channel cable used to attach from the controller to the 9170 array
uses a FC cable with a DB-9 connector at the controller end and a HSSDC connector at the
drive tray end. With ten drive trays in one cabinet, four DB-9 to HSSDC FC cables are
used (two short and two long). This creates two sets of redundant FC loops, which attach
to opposite ends of the 9170’s drive trays. This enables data to be accessed in the event of
a catastrophic failure that terminates the FC loop in midstream.
Unique installations using two cabinets and more than ten StorageTek 9170 Disk Arrays
are possible. In this case it is important to balance your loads so that each Fibre Channel
loop is driving equal amounts of storage. StorageTek Manufacturing will set up the
cabinets for best performance, and this or a similiar balanced configuration should be
maintained.
Refer to the StorageTek D173 Disk Subsystem User’s Guide (P/N 96032) for its connector
and status light information.

Controller and Array Cable Requirements
Table 12 lists the cable requirements for controller and drive cable connections. For
performance sake of the interface card, you can use either fibre optic or twisted-pair
copper cable for host connections, depending on your host to storage subsystem distances.
Fibre Channel copper cables are used to make the 9170 drive connections.
To connect fibre optic host or drive cables to the controller tray, you must use GBIC host
or drive interface cards. To connect twisted-pair copper cables, you use a copper GBIC
with either a DB-9 or HSSDC cable connection port, and for fibre channel (glass) you use
the fibre channel GBIC.
NOTE
The appropriate style of GBIC is provided based on the type of HBA that you
order. The configurator automatically select the cable and GBIC If, however,
you are installing a hub or switch you may have to modify your order.
It is possible to use both types of cables on the same controller tray for host or drive
connections as long as you use the appropriate type of GBIC interface card (see
illustrations below) for the respective type of cable.

installation CD for information on supported host adapters and drivers. StorageTek’s
customer support organization maintains a configuration matrix, which lists all tested
and approved HBAs and drivers.
NOTE
See appendix A, and refer to the KnowledgeMap, which has connectivity
information. New platform host attachments are being added; and each has a
specific and unique installation process. A host-specific CD is available from
StorageTek for each platform you wish to attach to.
Single-Bus Configurations
For single-bus configurations, install a single- or dual-channel host adapter on each host.
Dual-Bus Configurations (recommended)
For dual-bus configurations, do either of the following:
Install two, single-channel host adapters in each host, or
•
•
Install one, two-channel host adapter in each host.
IMPORTANT
Make sure each host adapter and controller has a unique ID. If installing
two host adapters per host for a dual-bus configuration, select the same
Host ID on each host to prevent conflicts.
