Clearing The Connectors Redundant Path View
If you do not want the redundant path view, physically disconnect the connector port from the enclosure
and reboot the system. After the system reboots, the user interface still displays the logical connector, but
in a critical state. To clear the redundant path mode, select Clear Redundant Path view from the
Controller Tasks.
Selecting this option clears the redundant path view and the connectors are represented on the user
interface as Connector 0 and Connector 1.
