HP XC System Software Administration Guide Version 3.2.1
Notes:
The -oldmp option is also required for CP6000 systems because their management
processors (MPs) have statically-set IP addresses and are not configured to use DHCP.
Thus, for CP6000 systems, the command to force discovery of the MAC address of the
replacement node's boot interface is:
# /opt/hptc/config/sbin/discover --oldmp --replacenode=n3
If the HP XC system detects that the model number differs from the previous one, a
message appears and you need to rerun the cluster_config utility to ensure the
node is properly reimaged.
8. Turn on the replacement node's power:
# startsys --image_and_boot n3
9. Run the spconfig utility:
# /opt/hptc/sbin/spconfig
10. Return the node to service:
# scontrol update NodeName=n3 State=resume
If the node is a member of an availability set, you need to relocate its services back to the
node using the appropriate availability tool command.
22.3 Actualizing Planned Nodes
During the initial installation of the HP XC System Software, you were able to plan for a future
expansion of nodes in the hardware configuration; for more information, see the HP XC System
Software Installation Guide. During its operation, the discover command inserted placeholders
for the range of planned nodes in the CMDB so that the actual physical nodes could be inserted
and the nodes could be incorporated into the HP XC system later with minimal disruption to
the HP XC system (that is, without the need to run the cluster_config utility and to reimage
the nodes).
