The connector should be properly sized to be suitable for the bold or stud, the locking washer, the rating for the conducting wire used, and the considered rating of the breaker. The intent is to ensure the frame is electrically bonded to the PROTECTIVE EARTHING CONDUCTORS. The hole that the bolt or stud goes into where the terminal conductor and the lock washer contact should be free of any non-conductie material to allow for metal to metal contact. All PROTECTIVE EARTHING CONDUCTORS should terminate at this main protectie earthing terminal or at points marked with. (R010) Special caution and safety notices This information describes special safety notices that apply to the system. These notices are in addition to the standard safety notices supplied and address specific issues releant to the equipment proided. Handling static-sensitie deices Ensure that you understand how to handle deices that are sensitie to static electricity. Attention: Static electricity can damage electronic deices and your system. To aoid damage, keep static-sensitie deices in their static-protectie bags until you are ready to install them. To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, obsere the following precautions: Limit your moement. Moement can cause static electricity to build up around you. Handle the deice carefully, holding it by its edges or frame. Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry. Do not leae the deice where others can handle and possibly damage the deice. While the deice is still in its antistatic bag, touch it to an unpainted metal part of the system unit for at least two seconds. (This action remoes static electricity from the package and from your body.) Remoe the deice from its package and install it directly into your system, without putting it down. If it is necessary to put the deice down, place it onto its static-protectie bag. (If your deice is an adapter, place it component-side up.) Do not place the deice onto the coer of the system or onto a metal table. xi FlashSystem 840: Installation Guide

17 Take additional care when you handle deices during cold weather because heating reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity. Sound pressure Attention: Depending on local conditions, the sound pressure can exceed 85 db(a) during serice operations. In such cases, wear appropriate hearing protection.

28 The following table shows switch information: Table 11. Switch Information IP4 address IP6 address MAC address Physical location Switch 1 Switch 2 Switch 3 Switch 4 Planning for power Plan to attach each of the two power supplies in the enclosure to separate main power supply lines. Plan to connect the power cords on the right side of the rack (when iewed from the rear) to power sources that proides power in the V / V ac range at 10.0/5.0A 50/60 Hz. Each power supply requires 900 watts. Using two power sources proides power redundancy. Note: We recommend that the two power supplies are placed on different circuits. The power cables are specific to the power requirements of your country or region. Attention: The power cord is the main power disconnect. Ensure that the socket outlets are located near the equipment and are easily accessible. Planning for configuration Plan for the management and serice address data before the system is installed. A management address must be allocated for the system. The management address proides access to system configuration and administration functions such as the management GUI. Important: The management and serice addresses for the enclosure must be allocated within the same network. The management IP address is required when the system is initialized. The system initialization tool that is proided on a USB flash drie proides a conenient wizard for initializing the system and configuring serice IP addresses. Use Table 12 to record the management IP address that is allocated for use by the system. Table 12. Management IP address configuration Configuration item Management IP address Subnet mask Gateway address Value Two serice addresses must be allocated to the enclosure. The enclosure canisters retain the serice IP addresses, allowing conenient access to node configuration and serice functions, such as the serice assistant GUI and CLI for that node; IP4 and IP6 protocols can be used. 4 FlashSystem 840: Installation Guide

29 Use Table 13 to plan the serice addresses required to perform serice actions. Table 13. Serice IP address configuration Configuration item Management IP address Subnet mask Gateway address Management IP address Subnet mask Gateway address Serice Address 1 Serice Address 2 Value Use Table 14 to configure the system for eent notification. Table 14. Eent notification settings Configuration item Value serer addresses SNMP serer addresses SNMP community strings Syslog serers TCP/IP requirements To plan your installation, consider the TCP/IP address requirements of the system and the requirements to access other serices. You must also plan for the Ethernet address allocation and for the configuration of the Ethernet router, gateway, and firewall. The following table shows the serices and TCP/IP ports: Table 15. TCP/IP ports and serices listing Serice Traffic direction Protocol Port Serice type (SMTP) notification for Call Home and inentory reporting Outbound TCP 25 optional SNMP eent notification Outbound UDP 162 optional Syslog eent notification Outbound UDP 514 optional IP4 DHCP (Node serice address) Outbound UDP 68 optional IP6 DHCP (Node serice address) Outbound UDP 547 optional Network time serer (NTP) Outbound UDP 123 optional SSH for command line interface (CLI) access Inbound TCP 22 mandatory HTTPS for GUI access Inbound TCP 443 mandatory Remote user authentication serice - HTTP Outbound TCP optional Remote user authentication serice - HTTPS Outbound TCP optional Remote user authentication serice - Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Outbound TCP 389 optional Wake On LAN Inbound N/A N/A mandatory Chapter 1. Planning 5

30 Both IP4 and IP6 addresses are supported. For configuration and management, you must allocate an IP address to the Ethernet management port on each canister, which is referred to as the management IP address. If both IP4 and IP6 are operating concurrently, an address is required for each protocol. You can configure the enclosure for eent notification by SNMP, syslog, or . To configure notification, you must ensure that the SNMP agent, syslog IP addresses, or SMTP serer IP addresses can be accessed from all management addresses. The system does not use name serers to locate other deices. You must supply the numeric IP address of the deice. To locate a deice, the deice must hae a fixed IP address. Checking your web browser settings for the management GUI To access the management GUI, you must ensure that your web browser is supported and has the appropriate settings enabled. Before you begin The management GUI supports the following web browsers: Mozilla Firefox 27 Mozilla Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) 24 Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 9 and 10 Google Chrome 33 IBM supports higher ersions of the browsers as long as the endors do not remoe or disable functionality that the product relies upon. For browser leels higher than the ersions that are certified with the product, customer support accepts usage-related and defect-related serice requests. As with operating system and irtualization enironments, if IBM support cannot re-create the issue in our lab, we might ask the client to re-create the problem on a certified browser ersion to determine whether a product defect exists. Defects are not accepted for cosmetic differences between browsers or browser ersions that do not affect the functional behaior of the product. If a problem is identified in the product, defects are accepted.

About this task Attention: The additional flash modules must match the capacity of all other flash modules in the system. Do not mix flash modules with different capacities. Attention: To aoid loss of all data on the flash modules, you must back up all of your data before you install the additional flash modules. This procedure remoes the current array from the existing flash modules. To add additional flash modules, complete the following steps: Procedure 1. Read the safety precautions in the IBM Systems Safety Notices. These guidelines help you safely work with the system. 2. Shut down all host I/O to the system. 3. To aoid loss of the data on the array, you must back up all information on the array before proceeding. 4. Before you install the flash modules, you must remoe the existing array. To iew a list of the VDisks in the array, enter the lsdisk command. 5. To delete the VDisks, enter the rmdisk -force id CLI command for each VDisk, where id is the id number of the VDisk being deleted. 6. To erify that the VDisks were deleted, enter the lsdisk command. 7. To remoe the array, enter the rmarray command. 8. To erify that the array was deleted, enter the lsarray command.
