Read the related safety notices before you begin work. Notes: • The IBM System Safety Notices document is organized into two sections. The danger and caution notices without labels are organized alphabetically by language in the "Danger and caution notices by language"...
CAUTION: A caution notice indicates the presence of a hazard that has the potential of causing moderate or minor personal injury. (C001) 2. After you download the IBM System Safety Notices document, open it. 3. Under the language, find the matching identification number. Review the topics about the safety notices to ensure that you are in compliance.

• Sharp edges, corners and joints may be present in and around the system. Use care when handling equipment to avoid cuts, scrapes and pinching. (D005) Important: Use only approved tools and test equipment. Some hand tools have handles covered with a soft material that does not insulate you when working with live electrical currents.
Important: Good judgment must also be used to identify potential safety hazards due to the attachment of non-IBM features or options that are not covered by this inspection guide. If any unsafe conditions are present, you must determine how serious the apparent hazard might be and whether you can continue without first correcting the problem.
To conduct the internal device check, use the following steps. Procedure 1. Check for any non-IBM changes that were made to the device. If any are present, obtain the “Non-IBM Alteration Attachment Survey,” form number R009, from the IBM branch office. Complete the form and return it to the branch office.

Initializing the SAN Volume Controller 2145-SV1 system by using the technician port To initialize a new system, you must connect a personal computer to the technician port on the rear of a node and run the initialization tool.
To initialize the system, complete the following steps. 1. Ensure that the nodes and switches of the system are powered on. (Refer to "Powering on and powering off the clustered system" in the SAN Volume Controller IBM Knowledge Center.) 2. Configure an Ethernet port on the personal computer to enable Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) configuration of its IP address and DNS settings.
7. For each storage system that is used with the system, use the system management application to map the LUNs that are currently used by the system to all of the WWPNs of the system nodes that you want to add. Chapter 5. Initializing the SAN Volume Controller 2145-SV1 system 141...
