ETERNUS CS800 server unit is still running but a storage subsystem fails during
a power outage.
l Data cables must be adequately shielded.
l The EN 50173 and EN 50174-1/2 standards apply for LAN cabling. The minimum
requirement is the use of a category 5 screened LAN cable for 10/100 Mbit/s
Ethernet, or a category 5e cable for Gigabit Ethernet. The requirements from the
ISO/IEC 11801 specification must also be met.
l Route the cables in such a way that they do not create a potential hazard (make
sure no-one can trip over them) and that they cannot be damaged.
l Never connect or disconnect data transmission lines during a storm (risk of
lightning strike).
l Make sure that no objects (e.g. jewelry, paper-clips etc.) or liquids can get inside
the system (risk of electric shock, short circuit).

1.2.11 Notes on Installing Devices in the Rack
CAUTION!
l Never lift the devices into the rack using the handles on the front panel.
l For safety reasons, not more than one unit may be unlocked or pulled out of
the rack at a time, otherwise the rack may tip over.
This is illustrated by the following pictogram:
l If necessary, have other people help you mount the individual
components in the rack because of the weight involved.
l When connecting and disconnecting cables, observe the relevant
instructions in the "Important Information" chapter of the technical
manual for the corresponding rack. The technical manual is supplied with
the corresponding rack.
l Route cables in such a way that they do not form a potential hazard
(make sure no one can trip over them) and that they cannot be damaged.
l The rack must be connected to the power supply by an authorized
electrician approved by the local utility company.
l If the rack model is integrated into an installation that draws power from
an industrial power supply network with an IEC309 type connector, the
power supply's fuse protection must comply with the requirements for
non-industrial power supply networks for the type A connector.
l An ETERNUS CS800 configuration can carry a leakage current > 3.5
mA. Therefore, a ground connection must be established before
connecting to the mains.

2.1 Overview
2.1 Overview
The ETERNUS CS800 is Fujitsu’s entry level and midrange disk backup solution that
integrates data deduplication and replication technology to connect backup and DR (disaster
recovery) protection across distributed corporate environments. The ETERNUS CS800 diskbased backup appliance uses Fujitsu’s patented data deduplication technology to increase
disk capacities by 10 to 50 times, and make WAN replication a practical, cost-effective part
of disaster recovery planning. The ETERNUS CS800 is designed for departmental and
medium business customers.
2.1.1 Disk-Based Backup Appliance
The ETERNUS CS800 system uses high speed disk RAIDs for backup data storage. In
comparison to a tape-based backup solution, the ETERNUS CS800 significantly reduces the
time required for backup/restore jobs and improves the reliability that backup jobs complete
within their planned backup window.
2.1.2 Advanced Data Deduplication Increasing Disk Retention for Backup Data
The ETERNUS CS800 leverages Fujitsu’s patented data deduplication technology (U.S.
Pat. No. 5,990,810) to dramatically increase the role that disk can play in the protection of
critical data. With the ETERNUS CS800 solution, users can retain 10 to 50 times more
backup data on fast recovery disk than with conventional arrays.
2.1.3 Remote Replication of Backup Data Providing Automated Disaster Recovery Protection
With the ETERNUS CS800, users can transmit backup data from a remote site to a central,
secure location to reduce or eliminate media handling. ETERNUS CS800 replication is
asynchronous, automated, and operates as a background process.
2.1.4 Configurable Storage Presentation
Storage can be presented in the following three ways:
l NAS shares.
l OST Logical Storage Units (LSUs)
l VTL (Virtual Tape Library) partitions
28 ETERNUS CS800
