About your HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System
The HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System is a disk-based storage appliance that emulates
up to 24 Ultrium Tape Libraries, which can be used to back up network servers or PCs.
Tape Library emulation type is selected during initial configuration and this determines the
number of cartridge slots and embedded tape drives that may be configured for the device.
The HP D2D Backup System may be configured as an iSCSI or a Fibre Channel device.
When configured as an iSCSI device, the HP D2D Backup System plugs directly into your
network, and presents devices as directly-attached SCSI libraries to host machines. Each
host can see only the backup devices that have been configured for that particular host.
The product also supports Fibre Channel and is supplied with the FC Card pre-installed in
one of the PCI-e slots.
HP 4112 12TB Capacity Upgrade Kit
The Capacity Upgrade Kit is an optional 12-disk expansion model. It may be installed at
the same time as the HP D2D Backup System or added later. A license is always required
for the Capacity Upgrade and is included with the kit.
2 Install the rack rails and unit(s)
The supplied rail kits allow you to install the HP D2D Backup System and Capacity
Upgrade Kit into square and round hole racks for 1U and 2U servers. If mounting the
server into threaded hole or telco racks, please see www.racksolutions.com to purchase
mounting hardware.
The rail kits consist of:
Important Safety Information
These rails, when installed, form a shelf for the HP D2D or Capacity Upgrade Kit to rest
on. The unit is not attached to the rail by any other means. Use extreme caution when
installing and pulling the unit out from the rack; it can slip and fall, causing damage to the
HP D2D or injury. HP is not responsible for any damage or injury caused by the
mishandling of the HP D2D.
Always refer to the Safety Guide and the User Guide on the HP StorageWorks CD-ROM
for detailed safety information. In particular, be aware of the following warnings.
WARNINGS:
• Ensure that the rack is level and stable before working on the rack.
• Ensure that the rack has anti-tip measures in place.
• Ensure that sufficient personnel are on hand to support the product(s) during the
installation process.
• Always load the rack from the bottom up. Load the heaviest items in the rack first.
1. Position left and right rack rails at the desired 'U' position in the rack (step 1 in Figure 1).
NOTE:
The rails can be adjusted to fit the rack.
2. Secure rack rails to the front and back rack columns using screws (step 2 in Figure 1).
NOTE:
Make sure that the shoulders of the screws fit inside the square or round holes
of the rack
–
Square hole rack:
use larger-sized shoulder screws and pins for mounting.
–
Round hole rack:
use smaller-sized shoulder screws and pins for mounting.
•
Follow the instructions on this poster to connect the hardware. Windows users can
then run the Installation wizard from the HP StorageWorks CD-ROM on each host
machine. Linux and UNIX users should refer to the “Linux and UNIX Configuration
Guide” on the CD-ROM.
• The host is the network server that you wish to back up.
• The host machine on which the Installation wizard is run should have Internet
access for installation to complete successfully.
• The HP D2D Backup System should be connected to Gigabit Ethernet. 100 Base-T
Ethernet will limit performance.
• For more detailed information about installing, configuring and using the HP D2D
Backup System, see the “User Guide” on the HP StorageWorks CD-ROM.
3. Slide the HP D2D into position on the rails.
NOTE:
The label on the top of the HP D2D contains useful identity information, such
as the MAC address and default network name. Make a note of this information
before you install the HP D2D in the rack.
NOTE:
The rear ends of the rails have a CTO bracket that must overlap the chassis
tab in order to secure the unit to the rails.
4. Secure the HP D2D to the rack rails using thumbscrews on the HP D2D front bezel.
5. Secure the HP D2D to the rack Using the holes provided in the rear rack rails, install
tie wraps and route external cable as required.
Capacity Upgrade Kit (optional)
IMPORTANT:
If you have purchased the Capacity Upgrade Kit, it should be installed
directly below or above the HP D2D Backup System.
The rack rails are configured for square-hole racks, but are easily converted for use in a
round-hole rack. To do this remove the standard pins from the front and back ends of
each rail and replace them with the eight round-hole pins (supplied in the bag of
miscellaneous hardware).
1. Secure the front end of the rails to the rack. (Identify the left (L) and right (R) rack rails
by markings stamped into the sheet metal.)
IMPORTANT:
Be sure that the scissor-type locking latches engage the rack fully when
the pins extend through the holes marked with the template.

3 Connect the hardware
1.
Always use the supplied power cords to connect the HP D2D Backup System to the
mains power supply. For detailed safety information, see the Safety Guide on the
CD-ROM.
2. Use any CAT-5E network cable (also supplied with the product) to connect the LAN
port(s) to a Gigabit Ethernet network.
There are two LAN ports on the rear of the unit, Port 1 and Port 2; this allows the HP
D2D to be connected to two separate Ethernet networks and used to back up host
devices on both networks. Alternatively, the two network ports may be bonded together
to gain bandwidth and failover benefits when on a single network.
LAN Port 1 (the lower port) must always be connected, even if you are using the FC ports
to back up and restore data to the HP D2D, because the Web Management Interface
requires an Ethernet connection to set up devices.
2. Secure the back end of the rails to the rack.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure that the scissor-type locking latches engage the rack fully when
the pins extend through the holes marked with the template.
3. Slide the Capacity Upgrade Kit into the rack. It should be immediately above or
immediately below the HP D2D.
4. Use the thumbscrews on the front of the chassis to secure it to the rack. (Remove the
small side panels secured with blue tape to access the thumbscrew.)
