Install the Hardware
For detailed information, see the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Installation Guide available from https://docs.
oracle.com/en/storage.

Connect System Cables
For detailed information, see the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Installation Guide available from https://docs.
oracle.com/en/storage. If you have clustered controllers, connect the cables to both controllers. Do not connect
power cables to the controllers or disk shelves until instructed to do so in "Power On and Configure the System."
The following illustration shows an Oracle ZFS Storage ZS9-2 high-end model.
Connect Clustered Controllers
If you have clustered controllers, connect the two controllers together. For detailed information, see the Oracle ZFS
Storage Appliance Cabling Guide available from https://docs.oracle.com/en/storage.
Connect Disk Shelves
The following illustration shows clustered controllers connected to an Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE3-24P (left
panel), and connected to four DE3-24x disk shelves (right panel). For additional configuration options, see Oracle
ZFS Storage Appliance Cabling Guide available from https://docs.oracle.com/en/storage. Do not connect
power cables to disk shelves or controllers until instructed to do so in "Power On and Configure the System."
Caution - Use active optical cables (AOCs) to connect Oracle ZFS Storage ZS9-2 external SAS-3 HBAs
to Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE3-24x disk shelves. Use copper cables to connect disk shelves to each
other, and to connect the controller to Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE2-24x disk shelves.

Caution - Attaching a SAS cable in the wrong orientation at the controller HBA or the disk shelf I/O Module
damages the port connector, and the system will not function properly.
The following procedure connects an AOC cable to the controller and to an Oracle Storage Drive Enclosure DE3-
24P disk shelf. For additional information, see Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Cabling Guide available from https:
//docs.oracle.com/en/storage.
1. Facing the controller HBA, position the cable's release tab to the right (left panel) for the controller end, and to
the top for the disk shelf end (#1 in right panel).
2. Insert the cable connectors into the appropriate ports, aligning the cable connector latches (#2 in right panel)
with the port latch receiver holes (#3 in right panel). Ensure the latches engage with the receiver holes.
Power On and Configure the System
Required information: Network host name and port of your serial connection, or network management port DHCP-
assigned address. Connect disk shelf power cables, power on disk shelves, connect controller power cables, power
on controllers, and configure the system as described in the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Installation Guide
available from https://docs.oracle.com/en/storage.
Perform Initial Configuration
For detailed information, see the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Installation Guide available from https://docs.
oracle.com/en/storage, including properly configuring management interfaces and updating controller software.
