Warning Notations

Warning signs are shown throughout this manual in order to prevent injury to the user and/or material damage. These signs are composed of a symbol and a message describing the recommended level of caution. The following explains the symbols, their levels of caution, and their meanings as used in this manual.

This symbol indicates the possibility of serious or fatal injury if the ETERNUS DX60 S2 Disk storage system is not used properly.

This symbol indicates the possibility of minor or moderate personal injury, as well as damage to the ETERNUS DX60 S2 and/or to other users and their property, if the ETERNUS DX60 S2 Disk storage system is not used properly.

This symbol indicates IMPORTANT information for the user to note when using the ETERNUS DX60 S2 Disk storage system.

The following symbols are used to indicate the type of warnings or cautions being described.

The triangle emphasizes the urgency of the WARNING and CAUTION contents. Inside the triangle and above it are details concerning the symbol (e.g. Electrical Shock).

The barred "Do Not..." circle warns against certain actions. The action which must be avoided is both illustrated inside the barred circle and written above it (e.g. No Disassembly).

The black "Must Do..." disk indicates actions that must be taken. The required action is both illustrated inside the black disk and written above it (e.g. Unplug).

■ System Capacitor Unit (SCU)

A SCU is installed in a controller as a backup power source in case of power outage.

The SCU is charged from an external power source while the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system is running normally. If a power outage is detected, data in the cache memory is saved to a non-volatile memory in the controller using the SCU. The saved data is retained in the nonvolatile memory indefinitely.
