STEP 4: Prepare the RAID Subsystem
After the server has shutdown, perform the following actions:
Action Serial Line (CLI) steps
Set the controllers to
multibus failover mode
HS***> set nofailover
The “other” controller will shutdown and must be
manually restarted by momentarily depressing the reset
button on the controller’s front panel
.
HS***> set multibus copy=this
The controllers will restart in multibus mode
Verify that the controller
mode was changed to
multibus failover
HS***> show this
HS***> show other
Prefer each storage unit
to “this” or the “other”
controller. Cycle power on
the RAID cabinet for the
new settings to take effect
HS***> show units
HS***> set
(unit#)
preferred=this
- or -
HS***> set
(unit#)
preferred=other
STEP 5: Install Additional Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter
NOTE
Ensure that the connection between host adapters on both
servers is consistent. Use the PCI slot numbering on your
servers as a guide. The adapters on each server that
connect to one controller should be in the same PCI slot in
each server. If it is not possible to install the adapters in the
same slot in each server, you must install them in
sequence. For example, the first adapters installed in each
server must connect to the same controller.
STEP 6: Confirm Installation
Action
Reboot the server
Check event log for proper Fibre Channel operation
