Setting Up the Storage System
Consider the following best practices when setting up an SCv3000/SCv3020 storage system.
• Dell recommends that you use a dedicated SAN network for data transmission when using a Fibre Channel or iSCSI storage
system.
• Always congure redundant data paths to provide alternate paths to and from the host server should one of the data paths
become disabled.
• Before connecting any cables between the storage system and host server or expansion enclosure, physically label each port and
connector.
• Always follow proper power-up and power-down procedures when cycling power across the network. Verify that critical network
components are on separate power circuits.
NOTE: This product is intended for restricted access locations, such as a dedicated equipment room or equipment closet.
WARNING: If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specied by the manufacturer.
Safety Warnings
Two person lift required
A fully congured SCv3000/SCv3020 storage system weighs approximately 43 kg
(95 lb). Use appropriate lifting methods when installing the storage system.
Laser Radiation for Fibre Channel Storage Systems
CAUTION: Class I laser radiation when open, avoid exposure to beam.
WARNING: Laser radiation, avoid direct exposure to beam.
The unit is certied in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS 21 CFR, chapter 1 Subchapter J for Class I (1) laser
products, and elsewhere is certied as a Class I laser product conforming to the requirements of IEC 60825-1:2007.
Class I laser products are not considered to be hazardous. The laser system and unit are designed so there is never any human
access to laser radiation above a Class I level during normal operation, user maintenance or prescribed service condition.
Locating Your Service Tag
Your storage system is identied by a unique service tag and Express Service Code.
The service tag and Express Service Code are found on the front of the system by pulling out the information tag. Alternatively, the
information might be on a sticker on the back of the storage system chassis. This information is used by Dell to route support calls to
the appropriate personnel.
NOTE: The Quick Resource Locator (QRL) code on the information tag is unique to your system. Scan the QRL to get
immediate access to your system information using your smart phone or tablet.

Other Information You May Need
To install the storage system, you may need the following additional information.
NOTE: See the safety and regulatory information that shipped with your Storage Center components. Warranty
information is included as a separate document.
• The Dell SCv3000/SCv3020 Storage System Deployment Guide provides information about cabling storage system hardware
components and conguring a new storage system using the Dell Storage Manager Client.
• The Dell Storage Manager Administrator’s Guide describes how to use Dell Storage Manager to manage Storage Center
systems.
Installation and Conguration
Before you begin installation, make sure that the site where you plan to install the storage system has standard power from an
independent source or a rack power distribution unit with a UPS.
In addition, verify that there is a 3U space in the lower 20U of the rack to install the storage system. If you plan to install the storage
system above the lower 20U of a rack, a customer-provided mechanical lift must be used to avoid injury.
Unpacking Storage Center Equipment
Unpack the storage system and identify the items in your shipment.

About this task
Mount the storage system and expansion enclosures in a manner that allows for expansion in the rack and prevents the rack from
becoming top‐heavy.

The SCv3000/SCv3020 storage system ships with a ReadyRails II kit. The rails come in two dierent styles: tool-less and tooled.
Follow the detailed installation instructions located in the rail kit box for your particular style of rails.
NOTE: Dell recommends using two people to install the rails, one at the front of the rack and one at the back.
Steps
1. Position the left and right rail end pieces labeled FRONT facing inward.
2. Align each end piece with the top and bottom holes of the appropriate U space.
Figure 2. Attach the Rails to the Rack
3. Engage the back end of the rail until it fully seats and the latch locks into place.
4. Engage the front end of the rail until it fully seats and the latch locks into place.
5. Align the system with the rails and slide the storage system into the rack.
Figure 3. Slide the Storage System Onto the Rails
6. Lift the latches on each side of the front panel and tighten the screws to the rack.

Figure 4. Tighten the Screws
If the Storage Center system includes expansion enclosures, mount the expansion enclosures in the rack. See the instructions
included with the expansion enclosure for detailed steps.
Install the Front Bezel
Install the bezel on the front of the storage system.
1. Hook the right end of the bezel onto the storage system.
Figure 5. Front Bezel
2. Insert the left end of the bezel into the securing slot until the release latch snaps into place.
3. Secure the bezel with the keylock.
6
Connect the Power Cables
Connect power cables to the storage system.
1. Make sure that the power switches are in the OFF position before connecting the power cables.
2. Connect the power cables securely to both power supply/cooling fan modules in the storage system chassis.
Figure 6. Connect the Power Cables
3. Use the straps to secure the power cables to the storage system chassis.
Figure 7. Secure the Power Cables
4. Plug the other end of the power cables into a grounded electrical outlet or a separate power source such as an uninterrupted
power supply (UPS) or a power distribution unit (PDU).
