Special Notes and Warnings

Disk Drive LEDs

There is no hardware support in the DS2100 for disk drive failure detection or

indication by disk drive LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes). A failed drive cannot be

identified by an LED signal. Only disk spin-up and data access activity is indicated

by a green flashing light on a disk drive LED.

Disconnected SCSI cables

SCSI cables must not be disconnected while both server nodes are up. Cluster

failover may not occur upon a SCSI cable being disconnected at a live node. Only

disconnect a SCSI cable from a server that is powered off. Also, do not disconnect

a SCSI cable interconnecting two DS2100 enclosures on a live cluster because

cluster failures may result from the SCSI bus not being terminated.

NetRAID-2M channels

When connecting the NetRAID-2M SCSI cables to the DS2100, only use

NetRAID-2M channel 0. Cluster failure could result and there is a potential for

data loss from connections to channel 1 and so channel 1 connections are not

supported.
