2.7.1 Planning and Configuring Your Installation

2.7.1.1 System Configuration
Important Before you begin installation you should become familiar with the configuration requirements of
your IBM System Storage DCS9900 3S2 Storage Expansion Unit. Please refer to Section
information on your overall system configurations.
When planning your system configuration, please remember that all IBM System Storage DCS9900 3S2
Storage Expansion Unit drive bays must be filled with either a drive carrier or front dummy carrier module,
no bays should be left completely empty.
Warning Operation of the Enclosure with ANY modules missing will disrupt the airflow and the drives will
not receive sufficient cooling. It is ESSENTIAL that all apertures are filled before operating the
unit. Dummy Carriers are available for this purpose.
