The SP can not read or find the operating system (flare) on the boot devices. Are the first 5 drives ready and do they contain the orininal OS from the machine?

Yes, this is possible. You would also need the flare drives installed in order to make it functional.

The cable is a standard null modem cable. You only need this connection if you don't know the IP setup of each SP. When you get in your SPS units they need to be connected to the SP's. You don't have to setup the FLARE it is self discovering for the most part.

Yes, you can move drives between units. With or without power applied. As long as they are not configured there should be no problems. The PSM or Flare drives should not be moved as it will make the machine unusable.

It sounds like you are putting in either bad disks or incompatible disks. What was your source for the disks you are adding?

What you have is an expansion rack for a Clariion System. If you supply the part number printed on the top label I could tell you more. The amber lights on the LCC cards are on because the interfaces are not connected to a SP.

You have several options when doing a SCSI code upgrade: 1. Upgrade by director. (single director upgrade) 2. Upgrade a single disk. 3. Upgrade by drive type. (all drives of the same type) 4. Upgrade all drives. (all drives in a mixed drive configuration) This can be done online or offline...

I have 2 EMC FC4700's and acquired some Dell Power Vault 630F DAE's and DPE's and several 73g drives. I tried to expand my FC4700 by adding a Dell DAE and the drives came up as unsupported. I then tried to put some EMC drives into the Dell DAE, but they would not physically slide into the disk...

Any one else have input on this? The Flare version does not explain why the drive would be unsupported. When a bad drive is replaced we don't stock different spares for different flare versions. My conclusion is that there is an incompatibility between the EMC machines and the Dell equipment...
