Global Rescan

A global rescan updates configuration changes (such as new or removed

devices) for all SCSI controllers and their attached components. For

information on when you may want to do a rescan, see

Rescan to Update

Storage Configuration Changes

NOTE: Global Rescan is not supported on non-RAID controllers. You must reboot

the system before Storage Management can see configuration changes on

non-RAID SCSI controllers. Otherwise, configuration changes are not reflected in

the Storage Management graphical user interface (GUI).

NOTE: The Global Rescan task updates the Information/Configuration subtab with

any configuration changes. To update the tree view, click the server name which is

displayed above the tree view.

To do a global rescan:

Select the

Storage

tree view object.

Click the

Information/Configuration

subtab.

Select

Global Rescan

from the

Global Tasks

drop-down menu.

Click

Execute

Enable/Disable Smart Thermal Shutdown

By default, the operating system and server are turned off when the 220S and

221S enclosures reach a critical temperature of 0 or 50 degrees Celsius. Using

the Enable Smart Thermal Shutdown task, however, you can specify that

only the enclosure, and not the operating system and server be turned off

when the enclosure reaches a critical temperature.

If the enclosure has virtual disks that are channel-redundant, then the

enclosure can be turned off while redundant data continues to be available on

another channel. For more information, see

Channel Redundancy and

Thermal Shutdown

NOTE: Only SCSI controllers support Smart Thermal Shutdown.
