17.1 Storage Expansion - Entry
17.1.1 Procedure of Storage Expansion starting with 8TB
To enhance the capacity from 8TB to 16TB, six additional 2.5" 2TB SATA 10,000 rpm rpm
hard disks must be added to the bays 3, 7, 11, 15, 19 and 23 of the server.
Proceed as follows:
1. Replace the six blank inserts one after the other by 2.5" 2TB SATA 10,000 rpm hard
disks.
CAUTION!
If the system is operating, to avoid temperature rise do not leave any bay
empty longer than necessary.
2. If further expansion (to more than 16TB) is intended, continue with the "Procedure of
Storage Expansion starting with 16TB" on page 478.
3. Reboot the ETERNUS CS800 via the remote management pages, see "Reboot &
Shutdown" on page 457. When the system boots up, a background initialize procedure is
started. The new disks are automatically integrated into the system and put into service.
No further actions are required.
