3.4.0 Matrix Server Release Notes

PolyServe Matrix Server Release Notes 12

During this process, the matrix configuration might be

destroyed on the rebooted server; however, the configuration

can be restored by importing it from another node in the matrix

(or by exporting the configuration from a good node to the

rebooted server).

To avoid this problem, use static IP addresses for the servers

that will be in the matrix.

7519 Third-party MPIO software must discover devices

When third-party MPIO software is used, it must discover and

present storage devices to the operating system before Matrix

Server is configured or started.

If Matrix Server is started and the third-party MPIO software

has not previously discovered the devices, Matrix Server will

make a “best effort” to discover them. In some cases, Matrix

Server will initiate a single reboot.

Matrix Server will not start if it cannot discover the devices. The

administrator must then determine why the MPIO devices have

not been discovered and resolve the issue.

7551 Matrix Server Installer does not find saved configuration

When Matrix Server is uninstalled, you can save the matrix

configuration. If you then reinstall Matrix Server in a different

location, the Installer will not find the saved configuration. To

avoid this problem, reinstall Matrix Server in its original

location. The Installer will then find the saved configuration and

apply it to the new installation of Matrix Server.

If you need to install Matrix Server in a new location, you will

need to move the saved configuration files to the new location

before the Matrix Server installation.
