|

|
<div><div class="p">This checklist shows the sequence of tasks that you use to configure disks
|
|||
|
on a new iSeries™ server.
|
|||
|
Whether you need to perform all the tasks depends on the disk protection that
|
|||
|
you want on your system. <a href="rzalydpconcepts.htm">Disk protection</a> provides
|
|||
|
more information about the disk protection that is available. <div class="attention"><span class="attentiontitle">Attention:</span> When
|
|||
|
you perform the tasks in this checklist, the system moves large amounts of
|
|||
|
data. Make sure that you have completely <a href="../rzaiu/rzaiuintro.htm">saved your system</a> in the
|
|||
|
event that you need to recover from an error situation.</div>
|
|||
|
</div>
|
|||
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Before you begin</h4><p>Print a copy of this checklist.
|
|||
|
Check off the configuration tasks as you perform them. This checklist provides
|
|||
|
an important record of your actions. It might help you diagnose any problems
|
|||
|
that occur.</p>
|
|||
|
<p>Most tasks in the checklist include references to other
|
|||
|
topics. Refer to these topics if you need more information about how to perform
|
|||
|
a particular task.</p>
