Handling static-sensitive devices
Attention:
avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until
you are ready to install them.
To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following
precautions:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
v Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.
v Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.
v Do not leave the device where others can handle and possibly damage the
v While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted
v Remove the device from its package and install it directly into your system unit
v Take additional care when handling devices during cold weather because heating
Preparing for installation
Before installing the DS4200 Express Storage Subsystem, create a detailed plan of
how this unit will be used in your storage configuration. The plan should include
determining RAID levels, fallover requirements, operating systems to be used, and
total storage capacity requirements.
v If you are using out-of-band management, cable the DS4200 Express
Ethernet ports to either the management workstation or the host.
v If you are using in-band management, cable the DS4200 Express host
channels to the fibre channel host bus adapters (HBAs) in either the hosts
or the fibre channel switch that connects to the host HBAs. See "Connecting
hosts to the DS4200 Express" on page 72.
