Setup guide

10 Once the initialization process completes, create a back-up of the
configuration for this set of enclosures by typing:
./XR_config.pl --saveConfig
A back-up of the configuration is saved. Note that you can only save the
configuration for one set of enclosures at a time.
11 Power off the workstation, disconnect the storage enclosures, and connect
the second set of enclosures.
12 Power the workstation back on.
13 Perform steps 3 through 10 in this procedure on the second set of
enclosures.
14 Power off the workstation again, connect both sets of enclosures to the
workstation.
15 Power the workstation back on and perform the tasks in the following
procedure.
Use the following procedure if you need to perform just the partitioning and
filesystem creation operations on a storage array where LUNs have already
been created.
To perform only the filesystem creation operations:
1 Open a terminal and log in as root.
2 Go to /usr/discreet/DKU/current/Utils/Storage/current/, and type:
./XR_config.pl --createFS
The configuration utility partitions the storage array, groups the partitions
into a logical volume, creates the XFS filesystem on the volume, and
mounts the volume.
NOTE Using this parameter has the same effect as running the XR
Configuration Utility with no parameter, and choosing option 4 from the
main menu.
3 Type Yes to confirm.
4 Create a back-up of the storage configuration by typing:
./XR_config.pl --saveConfig
NOTE You can only back-up your storage configuration after the drives have
finished initializing. This process might take a few hours. To check the
progress of the initialization type:
./XR_config.pl --arrayStatus
