Connect the power cables to each new storage shelf and turn on the power
to each unit.
Note: Symantec strongly recommends that you connect power cables to both
power supplies on each storage shelf unit. This helps to ensure consistent
power to the units and also helps to prevent problems from a power loss on
any single power supply. Symantec also recommends that you enable the Call
Home feature to monitor the power status of each unit and to provide alerts
if only one power supply is plugged in or has failed.
