RSM for Storage reports DS Storage Systems Expansion units as well, and therefore the
configuration of drive expansion units is also required. During the configuration test, the
profile for each subsystem will be downloaded. This will verify connectivity to the
subsystem, verify that this version of RSM for Storage software is compatible with the
firmware on the subsystem, and determine if there are any drive expansion units attached
to the controller. If any drive expansion units are detected, the configuration status for the
subsystem will change to Configuration Incomplete and additional configuration fields will
now be available for setting the IBM machine type and serial numbers of each detected
drive expansion unit.
Complete the form with the following fields:
a. The name of a storage subsystem, as shown in the DS Storage Manager.
b. The country where the storage subsystem is located.
c. A description about where to find the storage subsystem, for example, room number or
rack number, in the location field.
d. Management interface IP addresses of all controllers in the subsystem. If only one
controller is installed, use only one IP address.
e. Type, model, and the serial number. This information can be found on the top of the DS
storage subsystem. Select an entry from the contact list.
