Module 10 PS M4110 Components <Place supporting graphic here>
Module Objectives: • Describe the indicators on the front panel of the PS-4110 array • Demonstrate how to replace a Disk Drive, Control Module or Micro SD card • Describe what an SED drive is and its benefits are.
PS M4110 Front View Top Release Handle • Power LED • Blue – Good • Amber - Fault Drive LEDS Serial Ports Bottom Release Handle
M4110 Top View • Dual, hot-pluggable 10GbE controllers • 4GB of memory per controller, Cache to Flash Design • 1 x dedicated 10/100 management port – accessible via CMC • 14x 2.5” 6Gb/s SAS disk drives Front Back Controller status LEDS 2.5” SAS Disks Controllers
Controller Module • Active LED: • Green = active • Amber = secondary Power LED microSD card access
PS M4110 Controller • Type 13 Controller comprised of multiple boards: • Controller Module (Host and SAS cards combined as single unit) • FIOM (Fixed I/O Module, connects to chassis infrastructure) • Equallogic firmware with iDRAC emulation • 4GB Memory • Cache to Flash based memory backup
PS-M4110XS – Auto-tiering within an array SSD Speed & HDD Capacity • Enables the performance of SSD with capacity of HDDs • Mixture of SSD and spinning media within one array /member • Automated data tiering within a member. Hot data placed on SSD • 5 x 400GB SSD + 9 x 600GB 10K SAS HDD • 7.4 TB capacity • Automated data tiering within a member • Optimizes Hot & Cold data placement
Identify Drives • Drive Numbering Top view 0 13 Front
Identify Failed Drive • Locate the failed drive
Replace a Drive • Remove the Bad Drive: Press the drive release button. • Fully open the drive release latch. • Remove the drive by the grabbing the drive sides. • Install the new drive: lift the drive release latch to its fully open position • Hold the drive by its carrier and insert the drive into an empty slot • When the drive is fully inserted as far as it can go, rotate the drive release latch to its fully closed position. • Push down on the latch until you hear and feel a click 3
Identify Type 13 Control Modules Top view CM 0 Front CM 1
Replace a Control Module • Remove the Control Module: Pressthe control module release button. • Fully open the control module release latch. • Remove the control module by the grabbing the sides. • Install the Control Module: Lift the control module release latch to its fully open position • Hold the control module by its carrier and insert it into the slot • When the control module is fully inserted as far as it can go push down on the latch until it clicks 3
MicroSD Card Replacement Procedure • Remove the control module from the array. • Remove the SD card from the control module. • Push the microSD card in its slot to release the spring mechanism. The microSD card will be partially ejected from the housing. • Gently pull the card straight out of the slot • Install the replacement SD card in the control module. • Align the microSD card so the arrow on the card points towards the microSD card slot in the control module • When correctly positioned, the notch on the card will correspond to the slot. • Firmly press the card into the slot until it clicks into place • Insert the control module into the array.
Self Encrypting Disks • To identify a self encrypting disk a lock symbol will be on the label. • SED drive model mixing is not supported. Non-SED Label SED Label
SED Disks • To determine if all disks installed are SED • Login to the group • Select the member • Issue a “show” command
Self-EncryptingDisks (SEDs) States • Unsecure – Encryption is not active on this disk. When shipped from the factory, drives are unsecured. • Secure/Online – Encryption is active. Disk has been unlocked. When more than half the drives are present, they are secure and online. • Secure/Offline – Encryption is active. Disk is locked. When powered off, failed, or stolen, drives are encrypted and locked so that data is not accessible.
Self-Encrypting Disks (SED) • Encryption keys used to secure data on the disk • Military-grade in real time • Dell Equallogic uses AutoSED • Works at the array level • Administrator should ensure all members in group are deployed with SED • SEDs operate in an automatic fashion • If a drive is removed from a SED array its data is immediately locked
PS M4110 • Up to four PS-M4110 array’s can be installed in one M1000e chassis • The PS-M4110 is limited to 2 PS-M4110 arrays per group • If there are four PS-M4110s in a chassis there will be at least two groups
Module Summary • Now that you have completed this module you should be able to: • Describe the indicators on the front panel of the PS-4110 array • Demonstrate how to replace a Disk Drive, Control Module or Micro SD card • Describe what an SED drive is and its benefits are.
