CAUTION:
Use safe practices when lifting.
Attention: A fully configured DS3950 weighs up to 40 kg (88 lb). At least two
other people should help you lift the DS3950 from the shipping box. If desired,
open the sides of the shipping box and remove the CRUs from the DS3950 before
you lift it from the shipping box in order to lighten the storage subsystem. See
“Removing the CRUs” on page 36.
The following steps summarize the DS3950 installation process. Each step below is
detailed in this chapter or next two chapters, Chapter 3, “Cabling the storage
subsystem,” on page 45 and Chapter 4, “Operating the storage subsystem,” on
page 93.
1. Review the preparation guidelines. See “Preparing for installation” on page
29.
2. Prepare the installation site. See “Preparing the site” on page 31.
3. Prepare the rack cabinet. See “Preparing the rack cabinet” on page 32.
4.
Fold down and open the sides of the shipping box. Without removing the
DS3950 from box, you can remove the DS3950 rack mounting rails and
hardware from the box. The DS3950 rack mounting rails and hardware are
placed on the bottom of the shipping box (under the DS3950 storage
subsystem). Install the support rails in the rack cabinet. See “Installing the
