1. Configuring the system to be NEBS-compliant only changes the way that the system responds to
raised temperature. You must also ensure that the way the system is racked, and the operating
environment, conforms to NEBS requirements. See “NEBS-compliant earth connection” on page 15..
2. For more information about configuration guidelines and restrictions, see the following website:

Adding an expansion enclosure to an existing system
When you add an expansion enclosure to an existing system, you must use the management GUI to
update the system configuration.
About this task
The management GUI requires a supported web browser (see “Checking your web browser settings for
the management GUI” on page 131). For more information on installing a 5U expansion enclosure, see
“Installing an optional 5U SAS expansion enclosure” on page 25.
Procedure
To add an expansion enclosure to your system, complete the following steps.
1. Install support rails for the new enclosure.
2. Install the new enclosure in the rack.
3. Connect the expansion enclosure attachment cables.
4. Connect the power cables and wait for the SAS light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to illuminate.
5. Start the management GUI.
6. Go to Monitoring > System.
7. In the management GUI, select Monitoring > System. On the System -- Overview page, select Add
Enclosure. When a new enclosure is cabled correctly to the system, the Add Enclosures action
automatically displays on the System -- Overview page. If this action does not appear, review the
installation instructions to ensure the new enclosure is cabled correctly. You can also add a new
enclosure by selecting Add Enclosure from the System Actions menu.
8. Continue to follow the on-screen instructions.
Adding a control enclosure to an existing Storwize V5030 system
A Storwize V5030 system can cluster with another Storwize V5030 system or with a Storwize V5000 Gen
2 system. To add a second control enclosure to an existing Storwize V5030 system, you must first install
it in the rack. Then, you must connect it to the system through a zone in the SAN.
About this task
The management GUI requires a supported web browser (see “Checking your web browser settings for
the management GUI” on page 131).
Note: You cannot cluster a second control enclosure with a Storwize V5010 or Storwize V5020 system.
Procedure
To add a second control enclosure to an existing Storwize V5030 system, complete the following steps.
1. Install support rails for the new enclosure.
2. Install the new enclosure in the rack.
3. Connect the node canisters to the storage area network.
4. Configure the zoning on the SAN switches.
The correct zoning provides a way for the ports to connect to each other.
