it is still recommended that you upgrade to the latest version of the
firmware for your specific storage subsystem model.

7. Turn on the EXP810 (if you have not done so already) after performing step 6
on page 29. See “Powering on the EXP810” on page 69.
8. Turn on the DS4000 Storage Subsystem if it is not already on after performing
step 6 on page 29 and use the DS Storage Manager host software to verify the
configuration and upgrade the controller firmware if needed. If the controller
firmware is not at version 06.16.xx.xx or later, the EXP810 enclosures will be
shown in the DS4000 subsystem management window with empty drive slots
and enclosure ID of 99.
Handling
static-sensitive
devices
Attention:
Static electricity can damage electronic devices and your system. To
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
you.
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
device.
v
While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted
metal part of the system unit for at least two seconds. This drains static electricity
from the package and from your body.
v
Remove the device from its package and install it directly into your system unit
without setting it down. If it is necessary to set the device down, place it in its
static-protective package. Do not place the device on your system unit cover or
on a metal table.
v
Take additional care when handling devices during cold weather because heating
reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.
Preparing
for
installation
Before installing the storage expansion enclosure, 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.
Complete the following steps to prepare the storage expansion enclosure for
installation into a rack cabinet.
