Restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS)

Logical configuration

You can use either the DS8000 Storage Management GUI or the DS CLI to
configure storage. Although the end result of storage configuration is similar, each
interface has specific terminology, concepts and procedures.
Note: LSS is synonymous with logical control unit (LCU) and subsystem
identification (SSID).

Logical configuration with DS8000 Storage Management GUI

Before you configure your storage system, it is important to understand the storage
concepts and sequence of system configuration.
Figure 9 illustrates the concepts of configuration.
Figure 9. Logical configuration sequence
The following concepts are used in storage configuration.
Note: If the I/O Priority Manager LIC key is activated, you can enable
I/O Priority Manager on the Advanced tab of the System settings page in
the DS8000 Storage Management GUI. If I/O Priority Manager is enabled
on your storage system, you cannot use a zHyperLink connection.
The DS8880 system meets RoHS requirements. It conforms to the following
EC directives:
v Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of
8 June 2011 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances
in electrical and electronic equipment. It has been demonstrated that the
requirements specified in Article 4 have been met.
