Failback Methods
Failed-over drives may be restored to their primary path using one of the following
failback methods:
• Double-click on the disk icon to be failed back.
• From the Failback drop-down menu, select the Failback option, select the disk,
then click OK.
• In the Manager Toolbar, click Failback, select the disk, then click OK.
• Drag and drop each failed-over disk icon to its primary path as follows:
— Use the left mouse key to select the icon of the disk that is to be failed back
to its assigned primary path (the icon will become a null-circle when
selected).
— Drag the disk icon from its current, alternate path to the primary path
displayed on the screen (the icon turns gray while in transition, and the
cursor changes to a squared arrow).
— Drop the disk icon anywhere along the disk primary path.
If more than one drive requires failback, repeat these steps until all drives are failed
back and the restored path turns green. As each individual drive returns to its primary
path, the drive icons will return to their normal yellow and gray color. (The disk icon
may appear above or beneath the path line, depending on your exact placement of the
mouse.) The color of the failback path will not return to green until all failed-over
drives have been restored to their primary path.
NOTE: The order and spacing of the disk icons displayed on the paths can be refreshed using
the View/Refresh drop-down menu of the Secure Path Manager window or by pressing the
F5 key.
Adding New Storagesets with Secure Path
To add a new storageset to a Secure Path configuration:
1. Use the HSG80 Storage window to create new storagesets on the storage
subsystem.
