Powering On the Device

After the cable connection, power on the Teleport to check the running status. You only need to press the power button once. If the power indicator of the controller enclosure is blinking green, the Teleport is powered on. Figure 1 and Table 1 describe the normal statuses of the indicators after the device has been powered on.

  • Before powering on the storage system, ensure that all cables are correctly connected. The storage system may work improperly if the cable connections are changed after the storage system is powered on.
  • For a storage system with two controllers, if you power on the system for the first time or power on the system after clearing the system configuration, ensure that controller A is in the controller enclosure and properly connected. Otherwise, the storage system will fail to be powered on.
  • To avoid data loss, do not remove or insert optical fibers, network cables, coffer disks, or interface modules when powering on the device.
  • Do not press and hold the power button. If you hold down the power button for more than 5 seconds, the storage system will be powered off.
  • It takes 15 to 30 minutes for the storage system to be powered on.
