SonicWALL CDP 5040 Getting Started Guide

This Getting Started Guide contains installation procedures and configuration guidelines for deploying a SonicWALL Continuous Data Protection (CDP) appliance into an existing or new network.

The SonicWALL CDP appliance backs up data as changes occur and replicates them locally first, and then to a secure offsite location. This real-time data protection provides the most current file and system backup possible. By combining the advantages of local disk-based backup (fast recovery) with offsite backup*, the SonicWALL CDP appliance is the first solution to eliminate—not just mitigate—exposure to threats of data loss.

Please read this entire Getting Started Guide before setting up your SonicWALL CDP 5040.

Note: For more detailed technical documentation, refer to the SonicWALL CDP Administrator’s Guide and the SonicWALL CDP Agent Tool User’s Guide at: <http://www.sonicwall.com/us/Support.html>

*Offsite backup is offered as a subscription-based service.

Mounting the SonicWALL CDP 5040When mounting your SonicWALL CDP 5040:

• Use the mounting hardware recommended by the rack manufacturer and ensure that the rack is adequate for the application.

• Four mounting screws, compatible with the rack design, must be used and hand tightened to ensure secure installation. Choose a mounting location where all four mounting holes line up with those of the mounting bars of the 19-inch rack mount cabinet.

• Mount in a location away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. A maximum ambient temperature of 104º F (40º C) is recommended.

• Route cables away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures, and sources of noise such as radios, transmitters, and broadband amplifiers.

• The included power cord is intended for use in North America only. For European Union (EU) customers, a power cord is not included.

• Ensure that no water or excessive moisture can enter the unit.

• Allow unrestricted airflow around the unit and through the vents on the side of the unit. A minimum of 1 inch (25.44mm) clearance is recommended.

• If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum recommended ambient temperature shown above.

• Mount the SonicWALL appliances evenly in the rack in order to prevent a hazardous condition caused by uneven mechanical loading.

• Consideration must be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits might have on overcorrect protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings must be used when addressing this concern.

• Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment must be maintained. Particular attention must be given to power supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuits, such as power strips.

• The power cord must be removed to disconnect power.

Mounting Instructions in GermanWeitere Hinweise zur Montage der Modell:• Vergewissern Sie sich, dass das Rack für dieses Gerät geeignet ist und

verwenden Sie das vom Rack-Hersteller empfohlene Montagezubehör.

• Verwenden Sie für eine sichere Montage vier passende Befestigungsschrauben, und ziehen Sie diese mit der Hand an.

• Wählen Sie für die Montage einen Ort, der keinem direkten Sonnenlicht ausgesetzt ist und sich nicht in der Nähe von Wärmequellen befindet. Die Umgebungstemperatur darf nicht mehr als 40 °C betragen.

• Achten Sie darauf, das sich die Netzwerkkabel nicht in der unmittelbaren Nähe von Stromleitungen, Leuchtstoffröhren und Störquellen wie Funksendern oder Breitbandverstärkern befinden.

• Das beigefügte Netzkabel ist nur für den Gebrauch in Nordamerikas Vorgesehen. Für Kunden in der Europaïschen Union (EU) ist ein Netzkabel nicht im Lieferumfang enthalten.

• Stellen Sie sicher, dass das Gerät vor Wasser und hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit geschützt ist.

• Stellen Sie sicher, dass die Luft um das Gerät herum zirkulieren kann und die Lüftungsschlitze an der Seite des Gehäuses frei sind. Hier ist ein Belüftungsabstand von mindestens 26 mm einzuhalten.

• Wenn das Gerät in einem geschlossenen 19"-Gehäuse oder mit mehreren anderen Geräten eingesetzt ist, wird die Temperatur in der Gehäuse höher sein als die Umgebungstemperatur. Achten Sie daraf, daß die Umgebungstemperatur nicht mehr als 40° C beträgt.

• Bringen Sie die SonicWALL waagerecht im Rack an, um mögliche Gefahren durch ungleiche mechanische Belastung zu vermeiden.

• Prüfen Sie den Anschluss des Geräts an die Stromversorgung, damit der Überstromschutz sowie die elektrische Leitung nicht von einer eventuellen Überlastung der Stromversorgung beeinflusst werden. Prüfen Sie dabei sorgfältig die Angaben auf dem Aufkleber des Geräts.

• Vergewissern Sie sich, dass das Gerät sicher im Rack befestigt ist. Insbesondere muss auf nicht direkte Anschlüsse an Stromquellen geachtet werden wie z. B. bei Verwendung von Mehrfachsteckdosen.

Replacing a Single Hard Drive

The 750GB replacement hard drive can be inserted into any drive slot on your SonicWALL CDP 5040 appliance. You can insert the drive while the SonicWALL CDP appliance is powered on.

The front bezel on the SonicWALL CDP appliance covers the drive slots. The bezel can be unlocked with the front bezel security key supplied with the appliance.

The Web management interface provides a graphical view of the hard drive array on the SonicWALL CDP appliance. The best practice is to view the array on the System > RAID page during the replacement process.

Removing the Defective Hard Drive from the SonicWALL CDP Appliance

To view the hard drive arrays and remove the defective drive from the SonicWALL CDP appliance, perform the following steps:1. On your SonicWALL CDP appliance, use the front bezel

key to unlock the front bezel, then remove the front bezel to expose the hard drive array.

2. In the Web management interface, navigate to the System > RAID page. The defective drive is indicated by a drive status box displaying a status such as:• UNKNOWN• NOT SUPPORTED• NOT PRESENT

You might see a different status than those listed, depending on the condition of the drive as interpreted by the RAID controller.

3. On the appliance, press the square button on the right side of the defective drive to pop out the drive handle.

Warning: Be careful to remove only the defective drive from the drive array while the appliance is powered on. Removing more than one drive from an active array will cause loss of data.

4. Grasp the drive handle and pull the drive straight out to remove it from the slot.

Inserting the Replacement Drive into the SonicWALL CDP Appliance

Warning: Do not insert anything other than the SonicWALL approved hard drive into the SonicWALL CDP appliance.

To view the hard drive array and insert the replacement drive into the SonicWALL CDP appliance, perform the following steps:1. Remove the hard drive and the drive number stickers from

the replacement drive shipping carton.2. Depending on which drive you are replacing, apply the

appropriate sticker to the drive handle. While holding the drive with the label side up, place the sticker near the edge of the handle next to the square button.

3. In the Web management interface, navigate to the System > RAID page.

4. Pop open the drive handle on the new hard drive by pressing the square button.

5. Insert the drive into the empty slot, label side up with the handle sticking out.

6. Press the drive firmly into place to seat the connectors, and then close the handle.

7. As the System > RAID screen refreshes (every 30 seconds), you will see the drive slot status change to DEGRADED, and the Array Status change to REBUILD-PAUSED.

The DEGRADED drive status indicates that the RAID controller senses that data is missing from the drive. The

Page 40 Replacing a Single Hard Drive

Page 44: Sonicwall Backup Solution CDP 5040 GSG.book

Array Status will change to REBUILDING within a few minutes.

8. You may continue to use your SonicWALL CDP appliance while the RAID controller rebuilds the array with the new drive. The rebuilding process requires at least three hours.When finished rebuilding, the status for both the drive and the array changes to OK.

9. Re-install the front bezel, being sure to properly line up the LCD connectors. The best practice is to align and seat the

right side of the bezel (as you are facing the front of the SonicWALL CDP appliance), then view the connectors from above as you carefully press the left side of the bezel into place.

10. Lock the bezel with the front bezel security key.
