Hardware Setup

The ActiveSAN appliance hardware comes pre-configured; the operating system, file system, and other
necessary software is preloaded. Depending on your configuration, you may also have client software,
which may need to be installed. If so, follow the instructions included with the client software to
accomplish this.
Once your ActiveSAN appliances have been physically installed, you will next need to provide power
and network connections. Each ActiveSAN appliance has redundant load-balancing power supplies for
maximum resiliency. Always follow common practices for supplying power to the ActiveSAN appliances.
ActiveSAN appliances utilize auto-switching power supplies and can accommodate 110V – 220V input. It
is highly recommended that the appliances be connected to uninterruptable power sources (UPS). If there
is any question about specifications on input power, please contact Active Storage Technical Support.
