4. Configure the EMA12000, EMA16000, MA8000, or RA8000 array for fabric connectivity.
Enter the following commands to set the array for SAN-switched fabric:
HSG80> set this_controller port_1_topology=offline
HSG80> set this_controller port_1_topology=fabric
HSG80> set other_controller port_1_topology=offline
HSG80> set other_controller port_1_topology=fabric
HSG80> set this_controller port_2_topology=offline
HSG80> set this_controller port_2_topology=fabric
HSG80> set other_controller port_2_topology=offline
HSG80> set other_controller port_2_topology=fabric
5. Determine whether your array is configured for transparent failover mode or multiple-bus failover
mode. The following is sample output of an array configured for transparent failover:
Configured for dual-redundancy with ZG80200290
In dual-redundant configuration
If the controllers are configured in MULTIPLE_BUS_FAILOVER mode, go to step 7.
6. Configure the EMA12000, EMA16000, MA8000, or RA8000 array for multiple-bus failover
mode by accessing the CLI. For more information about the CLI and configuring the array, see
the HSG80 ACS Solution Software for HP-UX installation and configuration guide and the HSG80
Array Controller CLI reference guide. These documents came with your HSG80 ACS Solution
Software for HP-UX Solution Software Platform Kit. Enter the following commands as shown in
order:
HSG80> set nofailover
IMPORTANT:
The other controller shuts down and you must manually restart it by momentarily pressing reset
on the controller’s front panel. Wait for two minutes for the controller to boot before proceeding.
Ignore the controller misconfigured messages.
HSG80> set multibus_failover copy=this_controller
NOTE:
Wait two minutes for the controllers to reboot before proceeding. The controllers are restarted
in multiple-bus mode.
7. Verify that the array is in SCSI-2 mode by entering the following commands:
HSG80> show this_controller
HSG80> show other_controller
The following is a sample output of an array in SCSI-2 mode:
SCSI_VERSION = SCSI-2
NOTE:
If you are planning to use SCSI-3 mode, see Configuring SCSI-3 for HSG80-based systems.
The
array should be in SCSI-2 mode at this point.
