Chapter 4. Basic configuration
This chapter begins with a description of the basic concepts you will need to understand in
order to effectively configure and use the IBM System Storage DS3000. We then describe the
procedures required to perform the initial setup of the DS3000:
Initial management tasks (discovering and naming the subsystem)
Enable software feature pack and premium features
Create arrays and logical drives
Define host servers and host groups
Assign host servers and logical drives into storage partitions
For clarity, we will use a real-life example throughout this chapter. We will configure a
DS3400 by performing all the actions listed above. Figure 4-1 shows our sample hardware
setup.
We use an IBM System x 3755 host server with two FC HBAs, which is attached to a dual
controller DS3400 via a SAN switch. The DS3400 is connected to an EXP3000 enclosure.
