Chapter 2 Setting Up and Configuring the Multi Services Platform
Unpacking the Multi Services Platform
• 2 RU model—Ships in two boxes. One box contains the chassis and one box
contains from 4 to 12 hard drives.
• 4 RU model—Ships in two or three boxes. One box contains the chassis. If
you ordered up to 12 hard drives, they are included in one additional box. If
you ordered more than 12 hard drives, they are included in two additional
boxes.
To unpack the Multi Services Platform, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1 If your shipment includes two or three boxes, make sure that the serial number
that is printed on the shipping label on each box is the same.
Caution If the serial numbers are not identical, contact Cisco or your Cisco partner before
you set up the system. Operating a Multi Services Platform with mismatched
components causes the system to rebuild the disk array and prevents the system
from operating.
Step 2 Carefully open each shipping box and remove its contents.
Step 3 Make sure that the box in which the chassis shipped includes these items:
• Rail assemblies for rack mounting
• SUSE license and activation packet
• Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information document
• Envelope that contains the following:
–

–
One or two power cables (depending on how many power supplies you
ordered for your server).
–
