DS4200 Express shipping box. Do not remove the DS4200 Express from the
shipping box at this time.
Attention:
The mounting rails, mounting hardware, and line jumper cords may
be packed beneath the DS4200 Express in the shipping box. To remove these
items from the shipping box without first removing the DS4200 Express, open
the two long sides of the shipping box. Then open and fold flat the two short
sides of the shipping box. This enables you to access the mounting rails,
mounting hardware, and line jumper cords without first removing the DS4200
Express from the shipping box.
After you open the DS4200 Express shipping container and remove the
mounting rails, mounting hardware, and line jumper cords, check the remaining
contents (see "Inventory checklist" on page 3) without removing the DS4200
Express from the shipping box. If any items are missing, contact your IBM
reseller or representatives before proceeding.
Depending on the DS4200 Express model you order, your DS4200 Express will
ship with either the Microsoft Windows host software attachment kit or with your
choice of host software kits (Windows, AIX, Linux, Netware, SUN Solaris,
HP-UX, Linux on POWER, or VMware). The host software kit grants you
permission to attach host servers using the appropriate operating system to the
DS4200 Express.
The kit includes a DS4000 Storage Manager Version 9.16 Support CD that has
the appropriate IBM DS4000 Storage Manager host software. If you order more
than one host software kit, the additional kits may also be shipped in the
DS4200 Express shipping box.
The CD also includes the DS4000 Storage Subsystem controller firmware
06.16.xx.xx or later. For the latest controller firmware, check the IBM support
