HP customer self repair (CSR) programs allow you to repair your StorageWorks product. If a CSR part needs replacing, HP ships the part directly to you so that you can install it at your convenience. Some parts do not qualify for CSR. Your HP-authorized service provider will determine whether a repair can be accomplished by CSR.
The DS2500 is a dual-redundant Fibre Channel (FC) loop storage system used on systems running HP-UX operating system software. The DS2500 occupies 3 EIA units in a standard 19-inch rack. Up to 14 disk drives can be mounted in the front of the enclosure. Up to 4 DS2500s can be daisy-chained together to create a storage ring.

If either component fails, the LED turns off and an error alarm sounds. The failing component should be replaced as soon as possible. Fibre Channel disks Up to 14 HP FC disk drives can be installed in a DS2500. Only HP-supplied FC disk drives are supported in a DS2500. Figure 7 shows an FC disk drive.

Drive blanks To maintain proper air flow in the enclosure, a drive blank must be present in each bay that does not contain a disk drive. CXO6824B Figure 9 Drive blank Cables and cabling The DS2500 uses 50 micron (μm) diameter, multimode fibre cables. The input port connects to an HBA or the previous enclosure in the loop, and the output port connects to the next enclosure or an HBA on the loop.
DS2500 to approximately 1 1.0 kg (24 lb). Even though a single person can lift this weight, the DS2500 is difficult to install because of its physical size. Therefore, HP recommends that a minimum of two people install an empty DS2500 in a rack.

A DS2500 without components installed weighs approximately 1 1.0 kg (24 lb). Even though a single person can lift this weight, the DS2500 is difficult to install because of its physical size. Therefore, HP recommends that a minimum of two people install an empty DS2500 in a rack.

The EMU assigns a loop ID to each disk drive based on the enclosure ID and bay in which the disk is installed. HP-UX stores the loop ID and WWN of each disk, and uses them to authenticate the disk.
Installing multiple disk drives HP recommends that you install a maximum of four disk drives at one time. If you need to install more than four drives in an operational system, complete the procedure for each of the four disks (one at a time), and then repeat it for another set of four until all drives have been added.
