7 1 PRIMERGY S40-DF capacity extension The PRIMERGY S40-DF is the active component in the PRIMERGY S40 family of storage subsystems. The integrated disk array controller allows you to extend storage capacity using additional externally-connected passive PRIMERGY S40-ES storage devices. Two of these so-called daisy-chain configurations, i.e., with one or three PRIMERGY S40-ES units, are supported (see also the chapter on Configurations in the PRIMERGY S40-DF Operating Manual). In order to use a configuration with three external PRIMERGY S40-ES units, you will need the 1-channel version of the PRIMERGY S40-DF. This manual contains conversion instructions which describe the steps required to prepare a PRIMERGY S40-DF (3-channel version) for capacity expansion with three PRIMERGY S40-ES subsystems. For more assistance in understanding the details here, see also the operating instructions for the PRIMERGY S40-DF Storage Subsystem. Further relevant information can be found in the manual Safety, Warranty and Ergonomy (see section Related publications on page 21). U41100-J-Z

Before opening the unit, switch off the device and then pull out the power plugs. Note that switching off the device does not disconnect it from the power supply. To ensure that the device is fully disconnected from the power supply, you must pull out the power plugs ESD label Systems and components which might be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD) may be marked with the following label: Figure 1: Label indicating ESD-sensitive devices U41100-J-Z

10 Important notes PRIMERGY S40-DF capacity extension When handling ESD-sensitive devices, it is essential that you observe the following guidelines: You must electrostatically discharge yourself (e.g. by touching a grounded object) before handling such components. Any devices or tools that are used must be free from electrostatic charge. Pull out the power plug before mounting or dismounting ESD-sensitive devices. ESD-sensitive devices should only be held at the edges. Do not touch any pins, connectors or circuits on an ESD-sensitive device. When installing boards, make sure that you use an electrostatic wrist-band or some other suitable grounding cable that connects you to the external housing of the system unit. Place all components on a pad which is free from electrostatic charge. I For detailed instructions on handling ESD-sensitive modules, please read the German documentation Richtlinie zur Handhabung von elektrostatisch gefährdeten Bauelementen und Baugruppen (EGB)" or ITS-Rundschreiben Nr. 4/95".
