Cabling PowerVault MD1200 Series Expansion

Enclosures

You can expand the capacity of your PowerVault MD3200 series storage array

by adding PowerVault MD1200 series expansion enclosures. You can expand

the physical disk pool to a maximum of 120 (or 192, if enabled using the

Premium Feature activation) physical disks using a maximum of seven

expansion enclosures.

Expanding With Previously Configured PowerVault MD1200 Series

Expansion Enclosures

Use this procedure if your expansion enclosure is directly attached to and

configured on a Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller (PERC) H800 adapter.

Data from virtual disks created on a PERC H800 adapter cannot be directly

migrated to a PowerVault MD3200 series storage array or to a PowerVault

MD1200 series expansion enclosure connected to a PowerVault MD3200

series storage array.

CAUTION:

to PERC H800 adapter is used as an expansion enclosure to a PowerVault MD3200

series storage array, the physical disks of the expansion enclosure are

reinitialized and data is lost. You must backup all data on the expansion enclosure

before attempting the expansion.

To attach previously configured PowerVault MD1200 series expansion

enclosures to the PowerVault MD3200 series storage array:

1 Back up all data on the expansion enclosure(s).

2 Upgrade the expansion enclosure firmware to the latest version available

at support.dell.com while the enclosure is still attached to the PERC H800

controller.

Windows systems users can reference the DUP .exe package and Linux

kernel users can reference the DUP.bin package.

3 Ensure that the storage array software is installed and up to date before

adding the expansion enclosure(s).
