To install the drives
Remember that you must install disks in both disk enclosures.
1. Use the StoreOnce User Interface to check what drives are already installed. There is a Storage
Cluster entry in the Hardware tree for each couplet. Expand this entry to see the Disk Enclosures
(2 per couplet). Remember to check the contents of both disk enclosures.
To find out what disks are installed in drawer 1 of the first disk enclosure in couplet 1, expand
the Hardware tree as follows:
Hardware — Storage Clusters — Couplet 1 Storage Cluster 1 — Drive Enclosures — Sub

only the base storage configuration for couplet 1 has been installed in Drawer 1.
