Hardware – Description and Installation

3 - Verifying Installation

(illustration shows the RocketRAID 3560)

A battery backup option is available as an optional add-on component. The battery

provides additional data security in case of a critical system failure. Data normally lost

during a major system fault, such as a power outage or CPU failure, which was in

transit at the time of the failure (stored in the card’s onboard cache), will remain viable

for up to 72 hours. The battery unit can be attached to the card using the BBU CONN.

Attach the BBU to the RocketRAID 35xx, using the cable included with the BBU unit:

Once the RocketRAID host adapter and hard drives have been installed into the

chassis, boot-up the system to verify that the hardware is properly recognized.

1. Power on the system. If the system detects the presence of the adapter, the

RocketRAID BIOS Utility will be displayed during bootup.

2. Press Ctrl+H to access the RocketRAID adapter’s BIOS Utility.

The BIOS Utility will display information about hard disks attached to the adapter.

Make sure all attached disks are detected by this utility. If any of the hard disks are

not detected, power down the system and check the power and cable connections
