DS4800 storage subsystem. Unless otherwise stated, all the following tasks are detailed on the
pages numbers referenced in the IBM System Storage DS4800 Storage Subsystem Installation, User’s, and
Maintenance Guide . Review the multilingual IBM Safety Information document and read all safety
information in the IBM System Storage DS4800 Storage Subsystem Installation, User’s, and Maintenance Guide
before you begin the installation.
Attention: Before powering on the DS4800, the storage subsystem must be cabled to at least one storage
expansion enclosure populated with at least two drives. If at least two drives are not installed in each
attached enclosure when you power on the DS4800, your standard storage partition key will be lost and
must be regenerated. In addition, the resulting insufficient load to the enclosure power supplies might
cause them to intermittently appear as failed, falsely indicating the power supplies are bad. All drives in
the connected enclosure or enclosures must contain no prior configuration data.

Guide for your DS4000 storage
expansion enclosure.
8 Use SFP modules and FC cables to cable the DS4800 to at least one
DS4000 storage expansion enclosure.
“Connecting storage expansion
enclosures” on page 59
9 After you cable the DS4000 storage expansion enclosures, you must
set the enclosure IDs for all enclosures in the configuration.
“Storage expansion enclosure
settings” on page 77
10 For out-of-band management: Cable the DS4800 Ethernet ports to
either the management workstation or to the hosts.
“Connecting secondary interface
cables” on page 81
For in-band management: Cable the DS4800 host channels to the FC
HBAs in either the hosts or the FC switch that connects to the host
FC HBAs.
