The R400X expander is shown in Figure 1-1. The R400X expander provides space for up to seven integrated storage elements (ISEs), or up to six ISEs plus a TLZ04 tape drive, for VAX 4000, DECsystem, and Q-bus MicroVAX systems. NOTE: If the R400X expander is to be used with systems using BA200-series enclosures or earlier systems, such as MicroVAX 3000-series or MicroVAX II, you will need the H4010-AA hardware kit with supplemental installation procedures. The R400X expander connects to the system by a Digital Storage System Interconnect (DSSI) cable or by a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) cable, or both. RF-series ISEs are DSSI devices; RZ-series ISEs and the TLZ04 tape drive are SCSI devices. NOTE: VAX 4000 systems do not support RZ-series ISEs. R400X Expander Description 1-1 Figure 1-1: R400X Expander 1.1 Opening the Front Door The front of the expander has a divided door that can be locked to prohibit or restrict access to ISE, tape drive, and expander controls. A three-position rotary lock allows you to lock both the upper and lower doors or to lock just the lower door. Opening the upper door allows access to storage device controls in the upper mass storage area. Opening the entire door allows you to access all expander and storage device controls. Figure 1-2 shows the three key positions and the controls accessible in each position. Windows on the door allow you to see the storage device indicators. 1-2 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance Figure 1-2: Key Positions Opening and Closing the Divided Door Open and close the door as follows: 1. Insert the key in the lock on the front door. Turn the key to the top position to open the upper door only, or to the bottom position to open the entire door. With the key in the bottom position, the upper and lower doors will open together. 2. Swing the door open. 3. To close the door, simply reverse the procedure. When pushing the doors closed, push gently at the top right of the upper door and the bottom right of the lower door. R400X Expander Description 1-3 1.2 Mass Storage The R400X expander provides room for up to seven ISEs, or up to six ISEs plus a TLZ04 tape drive. The ISEs may be either DSSI-based RF-series ISEs or SCSI-based RZ-series ISEs. Each ISE has its own controller, and special mounting hardware to allow the devices to plug into the BA400- series backplane. NOTE: VAX 4000 systems do not support RZ-series ISEs. The R400X expander has upper and lower mass storage areas (Figure 1-3). The upper storage area has room for four ISEs, or three ISEs plus a TLZ04 tape drive; the lower mass storage area has room for three ISEs. Figure 1-3: R400X Mass Storage Areas Each RF-series ISE has its own front panel with controls and indicators (Figure 1-4). Front panels for RZ-series ISEs have no controls or indicators, only a SCSI bus node ID plug (Figure 1-5). Figure 1-6 shows the controls and indicators for the TLZ04 tape drive. 1-4 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance NOTE: All R400X expanders have panels for seven ISEs. If the expander has less than seven ISEs, the ISE cavity is covered by a blank panel with no controls or indicators. The front panels are required to meet international regulatory standards and to maintain proper aiflow. Chapter 3 provides instruction for installing, removing, and replacing ISEs. Figure 1-4: RF-Series ISE Front Panel Table 1-1 describes the functions of each control switch and indicator for RF-series ISEs.

The etch for the DSSI and SCSI busses distributes power and signals to the ISE through high-density connectors on the backplane. Two power connectors allow the power supply to plug into the backplane. The backplane distributes +5.1 V and +12.1 V to all the mass storage connectors and SCSI connection panel. The backplane provides a single SCSI bus and two separate DSSI busses. A DSSI jumper assembly, which plugs into the backplane, allows you to configure the DSSI bus in one of two possible configurations. In one configuration the DSSI bus extends as a single bus to all seven ISE cavities. A second configuration has two separate busses: the first bus connects the four ISE cavities in the upper mass storage area; the second bus connects R400X Expander Description 1-9 the three ISE cavities in the lower mass storage area. When the expander is shared between two systems, you can designate storage devices to a specific system by using the two separate DSSI busses. Configuring the DSSI bus is achieved by arranging the DSSI connector assemblies and the DSSI jumper assembly as described in the next section. 1.4 DSSI Connection and Bus Configuration Area Below the mass storage area is the DSSI connection and configuration area. This area provides positions for two DSSI connector assemblies as well as a DSSI jumper assembly. External connections to and from the R400X DSSI busses are made at the DSSI connector assemblies. Each of the connector assemblies consists of two M7574 modules with two DSSI connectors at one end and gold contact fingers on the other end. The DSSI connectors protrude through a cutout in a metal bulkhead. Two quarter-turn fasteners on the bulkhead hold the assembly in position. These two connector assemblies can be arranged with a third assembly, the DSSI jumper assembly, to configure the DSSI backplane into the two separate busses. The DSSI jumper assembly plugs into one of two positions in the DSSI connection and configuration area. The jumper assembly consists of an M7575-YA and M7575-YB module. The modules are attached to a metal bulkhead. Like the connector assemblies, two quarter-turn fasteners hold the assembly in position. A handle on the bulkhead helps to remove and insert the assembly. The position of the DSSI jumper assembly determines the configuration of the DSSI bus. In one position, the DSSI bus extends as a single bus to all seven mass storage cavities. With the DSSI jumper assembly in a second position, the DSSI bus is split into two separate busses with one bus connecting the four devices in the upper mass storage area, and a second bus connecting three devices in the lower mass storage area. Figures 1-7 and 1-8 show the position of the DSSI jumper relative to the paths of the DSSI bus. 1-10 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance Figure 1-7: R400X Single DSSI Bus Configuration R400X Expander Description 1-11 Figure 1-8: R400X Double DSSI Bus Configuration 1.5 SCSI Connection Panel To the right of the DSSI connection and configuration area is the SCSI connection panel (Figure 1-9). Two SCSI connectors on this panel allow you to extend the system's SCSI bus to the expander, and from the expander to an external SCSI device, such as a tabletop RRD40 or TLZ04 subsystem. The SCSI connection panel is connected to the SCSI connector module (M7493-PA) that provides terminator power for the SCSI and DSSI busses, as well as relay circuitry that sequences the power up of the expander 's RF- series ISEs. The top row of RF-series ISEs powers up a few seconds before the bottom row. The SCSI bus is a single continuous bus (Figure 1-9). The mixing of supported SCSI devices and DSSI devices in adjacent storage cavities is allowed. 1-12 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance Figure 1-9: R400X SCSI Bus Configuration 1.6 Power Supply The R400X expander uses the H7874 power supply. 1.6.1 General Description The H7874 power supply has two mechanically floating connectors that plug directly into the backplane. All power supply control signals and dc power connections to the power supply are made through these connections. The power supply contains auto voltage circuitry that senses input voltage ranges and will automatically configure itself to operate over 100-120 Vac or 220-240 Vac. The power supply is a complete power unit that contains the IEC input connector and the EMI filter. The power supply is capable of delivering approximately 600 watts of dc power split among +5.1, +12.1, -12.1, and +3.3 volts (the -12.1 and +3.3 volt outputs are not used in the R400X expander). To prevent damage due to overheating, the power supply monitors the internal temperature of the enclosure and the speed of the fans. If the power supply detects overheating or a fan failure, the power supply will shut down the system. R400X Expander Description 1-13 When the system shuts down due to overheating, the Over Temperature Condition indicator on the power supply remains lit. To recover from a shutdown, set the power switch to off (0) and wait five minutes before turning on the system. To prevent an over temperature condition, use the following precautions: · Make sure your system is away from heat sources. · Check that the system's air vents are not blocked. · Check that the room temperature is within acceptable limits as specified in the system Site Preparation manual contained in the customer hardware information binder. 1.6.2 Shutdown Sequence The power supply enters and completes a shutdown sequence whenever the BPOK H signal is negated. The following conditions negate BPOK H: · Temperature sensor triggered · An overcurrent condition on the supply dc voltage outputs · An overvoltage condition on the supply dc voltage outputs · Input voltage greater than 264 Vrms or less than 176 Vrms (240 Vac) · Input voltage greater than 132 Vrms or less than 88 Vrms (120 Vac) · Fan failure · Loss of ac input Figure 1-10 shows the controls and indicators on the power supply. Table 1-4 describes the functions of the power supply controls and indicators. 1-14 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance Figure 1-10: Power Supply Table 1-4: R400X Power Supply Controls and Indicators ------------------------------------------------------------ Control/Indicator Function ------------------------------------------------------------ AC Present Indicator (orange) Lights when the power switch is set to on (1) and the ac voltage is present at the input of the power supply. Power switch The power switch is used to turn system power on and off. The off position is indicated by a 0; the on position is indicated by a 1. The power switch also functions as the expander circuit breaker. In the event of a power surge, the breaker will trip, causing the power switch to return to the off position (0). Turning the system on resets the circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker trips, wait one minute before turning the expander back on. R400X Expander Description 1-15 Table 1-4 (Cont.): R400X Power Supply Controls and Indicators ------------------------------------------------------------ Control/Indicator Function ------------------------------------------------------------ DC OK indicator (green) When the DC OK indicator is lit, the voltages are within the correct operating range. An unlit DC OK indicator shows a problem with the power supply. Fan Failure indicator (amber) The Fan Failure indicator lights if either of the two cooling fans stop working. The power supply will automatically shut down the system as a precautionary measure when a fan failure is detected. Over Temperature Condition in- dicator (amber) The Over Temperature indicator lights if the expander has shut down due to an over temperature condition. Power bus connectors Three power bus connectors allow you to configure a power bus for systems expanded with the R400X expander. The power bus allows you to turn power on and off for the system and expander through one power supply designated as the main power supply: this way, one power switch can control power for an expanded system. Figure 1-11 illustrates a possible power bus configuration. When using a power bus, the R400X expander power switch should always remain in the on position (1). The system's power switch will control power up for the entire epanded system. MO The main out connector sends the power control bus signal to the expander. One end of a power bus cable is connected here, the other end is connected to the SI (secondary in) connector of the expander power supply. SI The secondary in connector receives the power bus control signal from the main power supply. In a power bus with more than one expander, the power bus signal is passed along using the secondary in and out connectors as shown in Figure 1-11. SO The secondary out connector sends the signal down the power bus for configurations of more than one expander. Figure 1-11 shows a power bus for an expanded system. ------------------------------------------------------------ 1-16 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance Figure 1-11: Sample Power Bus Configuration NOTE: Dual-host systems should not be configured with a power bus. Inadvertently shutting off a host system defeats the added reliability of a dual-host system. 1.7 Fan Tray The fan tray at the bottom of the enclosure houses two 15.0 cm (6 in) dc fans. The fans draw air through the top of the enclosure and exhaust the air through the bottom of the enclosure. A temperature sensor located in the power supply adjusts the fan speed by varying the fan voltage based on the air temperature in the expander. Power for the fans is provided through a connector that plugs into the backplane at the rear of the fan tray. If either fan fails, the system shuts down and the fan failure indicator on the power supply remains lit. R400X Expander Description 1-17 1.8 Status Panel A status panel in the upper right corner of the enclosure provides two indicator lights (Figure 1-12). A red Over Temperature Warning indicator flashes to indicate that the expander 's internal temperature is approaching a level that may cause components to overheat. In addition to the flashing Over Temperature Warning indicator, an audible alarm also provides warning of a possible over temperature condition. If the components continue to heat, the system will automatically shut down. A green DC OK indicator shows that voltages are within the correct operating range. Figure 1-12: Status Panel 1-18 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance Chapter 2 Installation ------------------------------------------------------------ This chapter explains how to install the R400X expander on VAX 4000, DECsystem, MicroVAX 3000-series, and MicroVAX II systems. NOTE: If the R400X expander is to be used with systems using BA200-series enclosures or earlier systems, such as MicroVAX 3000-series or MicroVAX II, you will need the H4010-AA hardware kit with supplemental installation procedures. To install the expander, you must complete the following steps. Some of the steps vary, depending on whether the system is factory configured for the expander, or if you are installing the expander for a previously installed system. 1. Verify site preparation. 2. Unpack the shipment. 3. Position the expander. 4. Configure the DSSI bus. 5. Install the storage devices, if not factory configured. 6. Install the KFQSA adapter and its cabinet kit, if those tasks are required. 7. Connect the DSSI cable. 8. Connect the SCSI cable. 9. Connect power bus cables. 10. Connect the ground cables. 11. Connect the power cables. 12. Turn on the system. 13. Configure the KFQSA storage adapter (for KFQSA-based DSSI). 14. Program unit numbers for ISEs if necessary. Installation 2-1 15. Close the door. 16. Satisfy any postinstallation requirements. 2.1 Verifying Site Preparation Before unpacking the shipment: · For an existing system, make sure the customer has backed up the software and shut down the operating system. · All site environmental requirements for the expander, such as cooling, airflow, temperature, humidity, and so on, should conform to those of the system being expanded. These should be verified as part of your site preparation for the expander. You can find the site preparation guide in the system Customer Hardware Information binder. · Use a dedicated ac circuit and receptacle for the expander. In the United States and Canada, the expander will be shipped with a power cable requiring a dedicated 120-volt, 15-amp receptacle. In other countries, the expander will be shipped with a country-specific power cable. This requires a dedicated power circuit and receptacle of comparable current capability, based on the country-specific power distribution regulations and power outlet designs. · If the expander is being installed as an add-on, run the MicroVAX Diagnostic Monitor on the system before installing the expander. The MicroVAX Diagnostic Monitor is described in the system's Troubleshooting and Diagnostics manual. You can find the Troubleshooting and Diagnostics manual in the system Customer Hardware Information binder. · Make sure the system power is turned off. CAUTION: Turning off the system without following the shutdown procedure described in the operating system software manuals may result in loss of data. 2.1.1 Tools Needed The following tools are needed to install the expander: · Flat blade screwdriver · Phillips (cross point) screwdriver · Adjustable wrench 2-2 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance 2.2 Unpacking the Shipment Keep all shipping and delivery receipts and save all packing materials until the expander is up and running properly and you are sure you will not reship it. Save all packing materials until you are sure you will not move the expander to another location. 1. Before unpacking the shipping carton, check for external shipping damage. Report any damage to the customer 's sales representative and the customer 's delivery agent. 2. Unpack the shipping carton according to the instructions on that carton. Figure 2-1 shows the shipping carton contents for the R400X expander. Installation 2-3 Figure 2-1: R400X Expander Shipping Carton Contents 3. Check the contents against the shipping list to ensure you received everything that was ordered. If any item is missing or damaged, contact the customer 's sales representative and the customer 's delivery agent. 2-4 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance 2.3 Positioning the Expander After unpacking the expander, you can move it into position in two ways as shown in Figure 2-2: · Roll it sideways. · Gently slide or walk it backward or forward by gripping the handholds on the sides of the enclosure. Position the expander next to the system (on either side). WARNING: The R400X expander weighs between 50 kg (110 lb) and 68 kg (150 lb), depending on the number of ISEs installed. Two or more people are needed to maneuver the system. During installation, leave a few inches of space behind the R400X enclosure and the system enclosure for routing cables underneath. Once installation is complete, you can place the base of the enclosures against a wall. Figure 2-2: Moving the Expander into Place Installation 2-5 2.4 Configuring the DSSI Bus As described in Sections 1.3 and 1.4, the DSSI bus can be configured in two ways, as one continuous bus or as two separate DSSI busses. The position of the DSSI jumper assembly and DSSI connection assemblies in the lower portion of the enclosure determines the configuration of the DSSI bus. Two quarter-turn fasteners on the bulkhead of the assemblies allow you to remove and reconfigure the DSSI bus. The assembly modules slide into guide rails and plug into connectors on the backplane. Figure 2-3 shows how to remove or install a DSSI jumper or connector assembly. Figure 2-3: Removing and Installing a DSSI Jumper or Connector Assembly 2.5 Installing Storage Devices Installing an expander on to a previously installed system requires that you install mass storage devices according to the customer 's specifications. The expander has the capacity for a maximum of up to six ISEs for a dual-host configuration and up to seven ISEs for a single-host system. A TLZ04 tape drive can be installed in the upper rightmost storage cavity in place of an RF-series or RZ-series ISE. NOTE: VAX 4000 systems do not support RZ-series ISEs. 2-6 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance You should first fill the available mass storage potential in the expander before installing ISEs in a system enclosure. If you need to move ISEs from the system enclosure to the expander, refer to Chapter 3 for instructions on removing ISEs. Instructions for installing RF- and RZ-series ISEs are provided in Section 2.5.1. Instructions for installing the TLZ04 tape drive are provided in Section 2.5.2. 2.5.1 Installing RF- and RZ-Series ISEs NOTE: Expanded systems configured at the factory already have ISEs properly installed. If you are installing a factory-configured system, proceed to Section 2.6. CAUTION: Static electricity can damage integrated circuits. Use the wrist strap and antistatic mat found in the Antistatic Kit (PN 29-26246-00) when you work with the internal parts of a computer system. Handle ISEs with care. Dropping or bumping the ISE can damage the disk surface. Carry or hold an ISE from underneath the lower metal bracket to avoid damaging the drive module or stressing the screws on the upper metal bracket. Installation 2-7 Install an ISE as follows: 1. Unpack the ISE. 2. Remove the blank ISE front panel from the expander. The front panels are each secured with one captive Phillips screw. 3. With the ISE controller module facing the right, slide the ISE along the guide rails into a mass storage cavity (Figure 2-4A). For single bus configurations, install ISEs in the upper mass storage area first; then install ISEs in the lower mass storage area. Always install ISEs working from right to left. NOTE: The first or rightmost mass storage cavity in the upper mass storage area is wider than the rest to accommodate a larger device. A small filler panel is used to fill the gap space when an RF- or RZ-series ISE is installed in this first cavity. 4. Using the upper and lower finger cutouts on the ISE bracketry, firmly push the ISE brackets until the interface card at the rear of the ISE plugs into its backplane connector (Figure 2-4A). The guide tabs on the upper and lower bracket should line up with the cutouts in the expander chasis. Tighten the two captive screws. CAUTION: A small gap between the ISE mounting bracket tabs and the R400X frame is normal. Tighten the captive screws only until they are securely fastened. Do not try to force the tabs to fit flush against the frame. 5. Plug the ISE's remote front panel cable into the module inside the ISE front panel (Figure 2-4B). Use the Velcro on the cable and the inside of the ISE front panel to secure the remote front panel cable. NOTE: The ISE front panel for RZ-series ISEs, unlike the RF-series front panel, has no buttons or indicators. 6. Attach the ISE front panel to the enclosure by first fitting the panel's lower tabs and then fitting the panel into position. Secure the panel with its single screw (Figure 2-4C). 2-8 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance Figure 2-4: Installing an RF- or RZ-Series ISE Installation 2-9 2.5.1.1 Inserting Bus Node ID Plugs Spare bus node ID plugs are supplied with your expander. The DSSI plugs for RF-series ISEs are dark gray (PN 12-28766-19). The SCSI plugs for RZ-series ISEs are lighter gray (PN 12-28766-28). Bus node ID plugs have prongs on the back that identify the bus node number (and by default, the unit number) of the ISEs to the system. Bus node ID plugs are shipped with the system and expander. To insert a bus node ID plug, align the two center prongs with the two center slots on the ISE front panel as shown in Figure 2-5. To remove a bus node ID plug, grasp it firmly and pull it straight out. Use the rules below for numbering bus node IDs for ISEs: · For each DSSI or SCSI bus, do not duplicate bus node numbers for storage elements. You can have only one storage element on bus 0 identified as bus node 0, one storage element as bus node 1, and so on; you can have only one storage element on bus 1 identified as bus node 0, one storage element as bus node 1, and so on. · By convention, the ISEs are numbered in increasing order from right to left starting with 0, and working from upper mass storage area to lower. Bus nodes 0-6 are typically used for storage devices, while node 7 is reserved for the adapter, and is the default bus node ID for the KZQSA and KFQSA adapters. NOTE: DSSI bus node ID plugs are also used to supply node numbers for the two embedded DSSI host adapters on VAX 4000 Model 300 systems. 2-10 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance Figure 2-5: Inserting Bus Node ID Plugs NOTE: If you change the bus node ID plugs while the system is operating, you must turn off the system and then turn it back on for the new plug positions to take effect. 2.5.1.2 Labeling RF-Series ISEs for Systems with Multiple DSSI Busses VAX 4000 Model 300 systems have two separate DSSI adapters built into the CPU. Other systems may have more than one DSSI bus using the KFQSA storage adapter. Using R400X expanders you can fill up to four DSSI busses for a total of 28 RF-series ISEs. Each bus can have up to seven ISEs (bus nodes 0-6). When there are devices on more than one bus and the system's allocation class is not zero, you need to program new unit numbers for ISEs, as the unit numbers for ISEs throughout the system must be unique. Instructions provided in Appendix B describe programming new unit numbers and overriding default values. With devices on two or more busses and a nonzero system allocation class, the ISE unit numbers will not match the bus node numbers on the bus node ID plugs. Unit number labels are provided with each ISE to identify Installation 2-11 unit numbers for the user. The labels stick onto the recessed label area on the ISE front panel as shown in Figure 2-6. Figure 2-6: Attaching a Unit Label to the ISE Front Panel 2.5.2 Installing a TLZ04 Tape Drive NOTE: Expanded systems configured at the factory already have storage devices properly installed. If you are installing a factory-configured system, proceed to Section 2.6. CAUTION: Static electricity can damage integrated circuits. Use the wrist strap and antistatic mat found in the Antistatic Kit (PN 29-26246-00) when you work with the internal parts of a computer system. Handle the TLZ04 tape drive with care. Dropping or bumping the drive can damage the product. Carry or hold the drive from underneath the lower metal bracket to avoid stressing the screws on the upper metal bracket. Install the TLZ04 Tape Drive as follows: 1. Unpack the tape drive. 2-12 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance 2. Remove the blank front panel and filler panel from the upper rightmost storage cavity of the expander. The front panel is secured with one captive Phillips screw. 3. With the drive positioned so that the Unload button and indicators are up, slide the drive along the guide rails into the upper rightmost mass storage cavity (Figure 2-7A). 4. Using the upper and lower finger cutouts on the brackets, firmly push the drive brackets until the interface card at the rear of the drive plugs into its backplane connector (Figure 2-7A). The guide tabs on the upper and lower bracket should line up with the cut outs in the expander chasis. Tighten the two captive screws. CAUTION: It is normal for there to be a small gap between the drive mounting bracket tabs and the R400X frame. Tighten the captive screws only until they are securely fastened. Do not try to force the tabs to fit flush against the frame. 5. Plug the tape drive's ID cable into the connector inside the drive front panel (Figure 2-7B). 6. Attach the drive front panel to the enclosure by first fitting the panel's lower tabs and then fitting the panel into position. Secure the panel with its single screw (Figure 2-7C). Installation 2-13 Figure 2-7: Installing the TLZ04 Tape Drive 2-14 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance 2.5.2.1 Inserting the TLZ04 Bus Node ID Plug The TLZ04 tape drive uses a SCSI bus node ID plug to identify the drive's node number to the system. Spare bus node ID plugs are supplied with your system and expander. SCSI plugs are light gray (PN 12-28766-28). To insert a bus node ID plug, align the two center prongs with the two center slots on the drive front panel as shown in Figure 2-8. To remove a bus node ID plug, grasp it firmly and pull it straight out. Figure 2-8: Inserting Bus Node ID Plug for TLZ04 Tape Drive Use the rules below for selecting an appropriate SCSI bus node ID for the TLZ04: · For each SCSI bus, do not duplicate bus node numbers. If you are installing multiple TLZ04 or RZ-series ISEs, the SCSI bus node ID for each SCSI device must be unique. Installation 2-15 · By convention, the devices are numbered in increasing order from right to left starting with 0, and working from upper mass storage area to lower. Bus nodes 0-6 are typically used for storage devices, while node 7 is reserved for the SCSI adapter and is the default bus node ID for the KZQSA adapter. NOTE: If you change the bus node ID plugs while the system is operating, you must turn off the system and then turn it back on for the new plug positions to take effect. 2.6 Installing Additional Components Some MicroVAX systems do not have a DSSI bus and require additional components, such as the KFQSA storage adapter, before you can expand a DSSI bus. Other installations may require the KFQSA storage adapter to provide additional DSSI busses. Up to two KFQSA storage adapters can be added to any system to provide additional DSSI busses. For an SDI-based MicroVAX 3900 and DECsystem 5400 Cabinet system (which uses RA-series fixed disks), install the following: · KFQSA adapter in the MicroVAX system as described in the KFQ Storage Adapter Installation and User Manual For an SDI-based MicroVAX 3500/3600 system (which uses RA-series fixed disks), install the following: · KFQSA adapter in the MicroVAX system as described in the KFQ Storage Adapter Installation and User Manual For a MicroVAX II system (which uses RD-series fixed disks), install the following: · KFQSA adapter in the MicroVAX system as described in the KFQ Storage Adapter Installation and User Manual · Cabinet kit in the MicroVAX system as described in the document that is packaged with the kit NOTE: MicroVAX II systems cannot boot from RF-series ISEs. The system disk must remain in the MicroVAX II enclosure. 2-16 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance 2.6.1 Installing the KFQSA Adapter If a KFQSA is not factory configured, before installing the KFQSA adapter, set the switchpack on the KFQSA module as described in the KFQSA Installation and User Manual. After completing the applicable procedures above, continue with the following section. 2.7 Connecting DSSI Cables CAUTION: Make sure the power switches on the system and the expander are set to off (0). DSSI cables are used to extend the DSSI bus to RF-series ISEs in the R400X expander. If the expander contains no DSSI devices, proceed to Section 2.8.

Two types of DSSI storage adapters are available for VAX 4000, MicroVAX 3000-series, MicroVAX II, and DECsystem systems: an embedded DSSI host adapter that is part of the CPU and the KFQSA storage adapter. Each storage adapter provides a separate DSSI bus that can support up to seven RF-series ISEs (six ISEs for a dual-host configuration). The adapters make a connection between the CPU and the requested ISE on their respective DSSI bus. Each ISE has its own controller and server that contain the intelligence and logic necessary to control data transfers over the DSSI bus. B.1 RF-Series ISE Parameters Six principal parameters are associated with each RF-series ISE: · Bus Node ID · ALLCLASS · UNITNUM · FORCEUNI · NODENAME · SYSTEMID NOTE: Each of the above ISE parameters, with the exception of the Bus Node ID, are programmed and examined using the console-based Diagnostic and Utility Protocol (DUP) driver utility. The ISE Bus Node ID is physically determined by the numbered Bus Node ID plug that inserts into the ISE front panel. Programming Parameters for RF-Series ISEs B-1 A brief description of each parameter follows: The Bus Node ID parameter is provided by the bus node ID plug on the ISE front panel. Each DSSI bus can support up to seven ISEs, bus nodes 0 through 6 (0 through 5 for dual-host systems). Refer to your Operation manual for instructions on changing bus node ID plugs. The ALLCLASS parameter determines the device allocation class. The allocation class is a numeric value from 0 to 255 that is used by the VMS operating system to derive a path-independent name for multiple access paths to the same ISE. RF-series ISEs are shipped from the factory with a default allocation class of zero. Each RF-series ISE to be served to the cluster should have an allocation class that matches the allocation class of the host system. Refer to the VMS VAXcluster manual for rules for specifying allocation class values. The UNITNUM parameter determines the unit number of the ISE. By default, the ISE unit number is supplied by the bus node ID plug on the ISE front panel. Certain multiple bus configurations, described later in this section, require that the default values be replaced with unique ISE unit numbers. To set unit numbers and override the default values, you use the console-based DUP driver utility to supply values to the UNITNUM parameter and to set a value of zero to ISE parameter FORCEUNI. The FORCEUNI parameter controls the use of UNITNUM to override the default ISE unit number supplied by the bus node ID plug. When FORCEUNI is set to a value of zero, the operating system uses the value assigned to the UNITNUM parameter; when FORCEUNI is set to a value of one, the operating system uses the value supplied by the bus node ID plug. The NODENAME parameter allows each ISE to have an alphanumeric node name of up to eight characters. RF-series ISEs are shipped from the factory with a unique identifier, such as R7CZZC, R7ALUC, and so on. You can provide a node name of your choosing if you prefer. The SYSTEMID parameter provides a number that uniquely identifies the ISE to the operating system. This parameter is modified only when replacing an ISE. Only Customer Services representatives and qualified self-maintenance customers can remove an ISE. The following describes how the operating system uses the ISE parameters to form unique identifiers for each ISE. Configurations that require you to assign new unit numbers for ISEs are also described. With an allocation class of zero, the operating system can use the default parameter values to provide each ISE with a unique device name. The operating system uses the node name along with the device logical name in the following manner: B-2 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance NODENAME$DIAu where: NODENAME is a unique node name and u is the unit number. With a nonzero allocation class, the operating system relies on unit number values to create a unique device name. The operating system uses the allocation class along with the device logical name in the following manner: $ALLCLASS$DIAu where: ALLCLASS is the allocation class for the system and ISEs, and u is a unique unit number. Using the KFQSA storage adapter and mass storage expanders, you can fill multiple DSSI busses. Each bus can have seven ISEs (bus nodes 0- 6). When a second bus is added to the system, and your system is using a nonzero allocation class, you need to assign new unit numbers for ISEs on one of the busses, as the unit numbers for ISEs throughout the system must be unique. Table B-1 illustrates the need to program unit numbers for a system using both more than one DSSI bus and a nonzero allocation class. In the case of the nonzero allocation class, the operating system sees the ISEs as having duplicate device names. Programming Parameters for RF-Series ISEs B-3 Table B-1: How the VMS Operating System Identifies the ISEs ------------------------------------------------------------ Allocation Class=0 Nonzero Allocation Class (Example: ALLCLASS=1) ------------------------------------------------------------ R7CZZC$DIA0 $1$DIA0  R7ALUC$DIA1 $1$DIA1  R7EB3C$DIA2 $1$DIA2  R7IDFC$DIA0 $1$DIA0  R7IBZC$DIA1 $1$DIA1  R7IKJC$DIA2 $1$DIA2  R7ID3C$DIA3 $1$DIA3 R7XA4C$DIA4 $1$DIA4 R7QIYC$DIA5 $1$DIA5 R7DA4C$DIA6 $1$DIA6 ------------------------------------------------------------  Indicates duplicate device names. For one of the DSSI busses, the unit numbers need to be reprogrammed to avoid this error. ------------------------------------------------------------ The following instructions describe how to change ISE parameters using the DUP driver utility. In the sample procedures, the allocation class will be set to 2, the ISEs will be assigned new unit numbers, and the system disk will be assigned a new node name. 1. Enter the console mode. The procedure for programming internal parameters for RF-series ISEs requires that you issue commands to those RF-series ISEs at the console prompt (>>>). You may enter these commands in either uppercase or lowercase letters. Unless otherwise instructed, enter each command, then press Return. Enter console mode as follows: a. Set the Break Enable/Disable switch on the CPU cover panel to the enable position. b. Set the power switch for each unit (both hosts for a dual-host system, and any expanders for expanded systems) to on (1). Wait for the system to display the console prompt (>>>). B-4 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance 2. Make sure the ISEs for which you want to set parameters are on line and are not write protected. The Run/Ready button should be (lit), and the Write-Protect button should be out (not lit). 3. For systems with embedded DSSI, enter SHOW DSSI at the console prompt for a display of all DSSI devices in your expanded system. For KFQSA-based DSSI, enter SHOW UQSSP. The firmware displays two lines of information for each ISE. The first line contains the node number and node name. The second line contains the device name and unit number followed by the device type in parentheses. For embedded DSSI, the device name consists of the letters DIAn and the DSSI host adapter is identified by an asterisk (*). For KFQSA- based DSSI, the device name consists of the letters DUcn, where c is the controller letter and n is a unique unit number. The following examples show a system with three RF31 ISEs. Example B-1 shows a system with embedded DSSI and Example B-2 shows a system with KFQSA-based DSSI. Example B-1: SHOW DSSI Display (Embedded DSSI) >>>SHOW DSSI DSSI Node 0 (R7CZZC) -DIA0 (RF31) DSSI Node 1 (R7ALUC) -DIA1 (RF31) DSSI Node 2 (R7EB3C) -DIA2 (RF31) DSSI Node 7 (*) >>> Programming Parameters for RF-Series ISEs B-5 Example B-2: SHOW UQSSP Display (KFQSA-Based DSSI) >>>SHOW UQSSP UQSSP Disk Controller 0 (772150) -DUA0 (RF31) UQSSP Disk Controller 1 (760334) -DUB1 (RF31) UQSSP Disk Controller 2 (760340) -DUC2 (RF31) UQSSP Tape Controller 0 (774500) -MUA0 (TK70) In this example, each ISE will be assigned an allocation class of 2, and the system disk will be given a new node name. Also, ISEs DIA0, DIA1, and DIA2 (or DUA0, DUB1, and DUC2) will be assigned unit numbers 10, 11, and 12, respectively. B.2 Entering the DUP Driver Utility To examine and change internal RF-series ISE parameters, you must first activate the DUP driver utility by setting host to the specific ISE for which you want to modify or examine parameters. Use the following commands for embedded DSSI: For VAX 4000 Model 300 systems: SET HOST/DUP/DSSI/BUS: PARAMS where: is the DSSI bus number (0 or 1), and is the bus node ID (0-6) for the ISE on the bus. For all other systems with an embedded DSSI bus: SET HOST/DUP/DSSI PARAMS where: is the bus node ID (0-6) for the ISE on the bus. Use the following command for KFQSA-based DSSI: SET HOST/DUP/UQSSP/DISK PARAMS where: B-6 R400X Expander Installation and Maintenance is the bus node ID (0-6) for the ISE on the bus. The following examples show the commands entered at the console prompt to start the DUP server for the ISE at node 0. In Example B-3, you enter SET HOST/DUP/DSSI 0 PARAMS for embedded DSSI. In Example B-4, you enter SET HOST/DUP/UQSSP/DISK 0 PARAMS for KFQSA-based DSSI. Example B-3: Starting the DUP Driver Utility (Embedded DSSI) >>>SET HOST/DUP/DSSI 0 PARAMS Starting DUP server...

The changes are recorded to nonvolatile memory. If you have changed the allocation class or node name of an ISE, the DUP driver utility will ask you to initialize the controller. Answer Yes (Y) to allow the changes to be recorded and to exit the DUP driver utility. If you have not changed the allocation class or node name, enter the EXIT command at the PARAMS> prompt to exit the DUP driver utility for the specified ISE. Example B-9 shows the procedure for saving parameter changes. In the example, the controller is initialized.
