Determining if a safety inspection is required

Procedure

Find the condition that applies to your storage facility:
  • New storage facility from IBM®. A safety inspection is not required. Continue with Checking for weight reduction, feature code 0200.
  • Not a new storage facility from IBM and was maintained by IBM. A safety inspection is not required. Continue with Checking for weight reduction, feature code 0200.
  • Not a new storage facility from IBM and was not maintained by IBM. A safety inspection is required. Continue with "Safety inspection" in the Service Information Center. The HMC is not yet available so you must locate the IBM DS8000® series Service Documents CDROM (normally in the Rack-1 front upper left documentation enclosure). Start the information center on the CD.
    • If you are installing a base rack, click on Safety from the navigation pane, and then click Safety inspection > Base rack safety inspection
    • If you are installing an expansion rack, click on Safety from the navigation pane, and then click Safety inspection > Expansion rack safety inspection.
