corrupted or lost.

command, selecting the appropriate behavior value:

SunCluster> -c 1

2 To change the host port behavior for Controller 2, enter the following

command, selecting the appropriate behavior value:

SunCluster> -c 2

To view the current host port behavior setting for controller 1 or controller 2,

enter the following commands:

dsp -c 1

dsp -c 2
