Setting up your PowerEdge FD332

  1. Unpack the storage sled.
    • NOTE: If your storage sled has shipped pre-installed in the enclosure, remove the sled before installing the enclosure in the rack, to reduce chassis weight. See Removing a storage sled .
    • NOTE: If you are installing the storage sled in an enclosure that is already powered on, you need not turn off the enclosure to install the storage sled. Only the compute sled(s) to which the storage sled is mapped must be turned off.
  2. Turn off the compute sled(s) to which the storage sled is mapped, by using the CMC, iDRAC, or the power button on the compute sled(s). For information on mapping configurations of storage sleds to compute sleds, see Storage sled mapping configurations .
  3. Remove the I/O connector cover from the storage sled connectors.
  4. Install the storage sled in the enclosure. See Installing a storage sled .
    • NOTE: Install the storage sled(s) in the bottom slots of the PowerEdge FX2s enclosure, beginning from the left (slot 3). In the four-bay chassis that supports up to three storage sleds, you can also install a storage sled in the top right slot (slot 2) of the enclosure. For information on sled slot numbering, see the Dell PowerEdge FX2 and FX2s Enclosure Owner's Manual at dell.com/poweredgemanuals.
    • NOTE: You cannot install the storage sled in the top left slot (slot 1) of the four-bay chassis.
  5. Turn on the compute sled(s) to which the storage sled is mapped, by using the iDRAC, CMC, or the compute sled power button.
    • NOTE: The storage sled turns on when the compute sled(s) to which it is mapped is/are turned on. For information on the mapping configurations, see Storage sled mapping configurations .
    • NOTE: If the enclosure is not powered on when you are installing the compute and storage sleds, turn on the enclosure and wait for it to initialize before turning on the compute sled(s).
