Removing and Replacing the Front Bezel

For the MARS 55, 110R, 110, 210, GC2R, and GC2, you must remove the front bezel to access the DVD ROM, hard drives, and control panel buttons. The bezels do not lock. The MARS 25R and 25 front panel features are accessible without removing the bezel.

MARS 55

To remove the MARS 55 bezel, support the left-side hinge with your hand, as shown in Figure 1-1. Pull the bezel from the right-hand side, swing open, then gently detach left-hand side from hinge.

Figure 1-1 Removing the Front Bezel from a MARS 55

MARS 110, 110R, 210, GC2R, and GC2

To remove the bezel form the, pull the bezel from the appliance, as shown in Figure 1-2.

To replace the bezel, line up the center notch on the bezel with the center guide on the rack handles, then push the bezel onto the front of the MARS Appliance until it clicks into place.

Hard Drive Slot Number Maps

The MARS Command Line Interface reports status of removable hard drives by referring to slot and pd numbers. For hard drive hotswap procedures, see the section of Chapter 4, "Hard Drive Troubleshooting and Replacement".

Figure 1-13 shows the chassis HDD slot numbers of the MARS 55. Figure 1-14 shows the chassis HDD slot numbers of the MARS 110R, 110, 210, GC2R, and GC2. Table 1-9 shows how slot numbers correspond to PD and Port numbers used in the raidstatus CLI.

---

Note For Release 5.3.2 and more recent, the hotswap list all CLI command displays the physical slot number to PD and Port Number layout in ASCII art.

Power Supplies

This section consists of the following subsections:

MARS 110R, 110, 210, GC2R, and GC2 Power Supply

MARS 25R, 25, and 55 Power Supply

For procedures on hotswapping a power supply, see Chapter 5, "Hot-swapping a Power Supply Unit"

MARS 110R, 110, 210, GC2R, and GC2 Power Supply

The MARS 110R, 110, 210, GC2R, and GC2 ship with two hot-swappable 750 watt redundant (1 + 1) ATX power supplies (PS) which have the following integrated management features:

•Status LED on each power module

•Over-temperature protection (OTP)

•Over-voltage protection (OVP)

---

Caution On a 20 amperes AC outlet, no more than a total of four (4) systems should be connected to a single outlet at any time.

---

1	Integrated fan	2	Status LED
3	Retaining clip	4	AC power socket
5	Pull handle

Over-Temperature Protection (OTP)

The power supply is protected against over-temperature conditions caused by loss of fan cooling or excessive ambient temperature. In an OTP condition the power supply will shutdown. When the power supply temperature drops to the rated safety limit, the power supply restores power automatically, while the 5 V standby remains constantly on. The power supply alerts the system of the OTP condition with the power supply FAIL signal and the Power LED on the control panel.

Over-Current Protection (OCP)

The power supply and power distribution board shutdown and latch off after an over-current condition occurs. This latch is cleared by an AC power interruption.

Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)

The power supply and power distribution board shutdown and latch off after an over-voltage condition occurs. This latch is cleared by an AC power interruption.

AC Power Source Requirements

Each power supply has a socket to accommodate an AC power cord. Each power supply operates within the parameters listed in Table 1-10.

1 Maximum input current at low input voltage range is measured at maximum load—minimums are 90VAC for a 110 Line, and 180VAC for a 220 Line. 2 Maximum rated input current is measured at 100VAC and 200VAC.

Power Supply LED Description

Each power supply module has a two-color Amber/Green LED to indicate power supply status.

•Solid amber—Indicates no AC power for this power supply unit only, or there is a power supply critical event causing a shutdown. For instance, a general failure, a blown fuse, an over-current protection event, an over-voltage protection event, or a fan failure.

•1Hz blinking amber— Power supply warning event is occurring and the power supply is operating. Warning events are high temperature, high power, high current, or slow fan.

•Solid green—Power supplies are operating normally

•1Hz blinking green—AC power is present but only 5V standby is on (Power Button is off)

Checking Power Supply Operational Status

Example 1-1 displays the power supply status information in an excerpt of a show healthinfo CLI command output. The power supply unit should evaluated for hotswapping if the status is down. An email alert is sent to the administrator when a power supply changes status from "ok." PS1 is the lower power supply, PS2 is the upper power supply. In normal operation, PS1 supplies most of the power requirements, and PS2 is the redundant power supply.

MARS 25R, 25, and 55 Power Supply

The MARS 25R, 25, and 55 have a single 350 watt ATX power supply (PS) with the following features:

•Over-temperature protection (OTP)

•Over-current protection (OCP)

•Over-voltage protection (OVP)

Over-Temperature Protection (OTP)

The power supply is protected against over-temperature conditions caused by loss of fan cooling or excessive ambient temperature. In an OTP condition the power supply will shutdown. When the power supply temperature drops to the rated safety limit, the power supply restores power automatically, while a 5 V standby remains constantly on. The power supply alerts the system of the OTP condition with the power supply FAIL signal and the Power LED on the control panel.

Over-Current Protection (OCP)

The power supply and power distribution board shutdown and latch off after an over-current condition occurs. This latch is cleared by an AC power interruption.

Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)

The power supply and power distribution board shutdown and latch off after an over-voltage condition occurs. This latch is cleared by an AC power interruption.

AC Power Source Requirements

The power supply operates within the parameters listed in Table 1-11.

Table 1-11 MARS 25R, 25, and 55 Power Maximums and Minimums

Parameter	110 Line Voltage	220 Line Voltage
Minimum	90 Vrms	180 Vrms
Rated	100-127 Vrms	200-240 Vrms
Maximum	140 Vrms	264 Vrms
Start-up VAC	85 VAC +/- 4 VAC
Power Off VAC	75 VAC +/- 5 VAC
Maximum Input AC Current1	6.0 Arms	3.0 Arms
Frequency	Minimum: 47 Hz; Rated: 50/60 Hz; Maximum: 63 Hz

1 Maximum input current value is measured at maximum load and minimum voltage (90VAC for 110 line voltage, 180VAC for 220 line voltage.

Connector Descriptions

Table 1-12 describes the type and function of the back panel communication ports of the MARS 25R, 25, 55, 110R, 110, 210, GC2R, and GC2.

Table 1-12 Communication Port Descriptions—MARS 25R, 25, 55, 110R, 110, 210, GC2R, and GC2

Connector	Description
DB-9 Serial	Table 1-13 lists the pin number assignments for the 9-pin D-subminiature serial port connector.
RJ-45 Serial	Table 1-14 lists the pin numbers assignments for the RJ-45 serial port connector.
Modem Line-in	The MARS Appliance has a V.90 modem for sending SMS and pager alerts. Connect the line-in port to the wall jack using the provided standard telephone cable (RJ-11 connectors).
Modem External Telephone	You can connect a POTS telephone to the telephone port with a standard telephone cable (RJ-11 connectors).
VGA Port	Connect a monitor to this standard VGA port, and a keyboard to the keyboard port to view the console logs and to access the command line interface. It cannot be used at the same time as the Front Panel VGA connector.
Keyboard	PS/2 keyboard connector. To access the console logs, or the command line interface connect a keyboard to the keyboard connector and a monitor to the VGA port.
Mouse	PS/2 mouse port. Not supported.
USB Ports (0 and 1)	Not supported.
Ethernet Add-in NIC connectors	Not supported.
Integrated Ethernet NIC connectors (eth0 and eth1)	10/100/1000-megabit-per-second (Mbps) autosensing Ethernet ports (autosensing detects line speed and duplex mode). MARS supports the operation of both Ethernet connectors. Table 1-7 lists LED descriptions. NIC 1 is eth0 and NIC 2 is eth1. Each Ethernet connector provides all the functions of a network expansion card and supports the 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-TX Ethernet standards. The MARS Appliance monitors network traffic destined to the IP address assigned to eth0. The eth0 connector is the port to which the gateway command applies. Therefore, eth0 must be attached to the network from which the reporting devices are accessible. The eth1 connector is typically used as an out-of-band management network, which provides faster graphical user interface (GUI) response to the administrator. To use eth1, you must define static routes to the destination networks for that interface.
