true, this tool truely shows you everything and is quite helpfully for troubleshooting, as it does a "snapshot" of the configuration of the system weekly. Another cool utility is the "getconfig from HP", which works not only on HP-or Cpq-systems. If you have installed the...

go to http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/10664.html and get the utility. a helpfile is included. make sure to have the latest BIOs installed before adding the second CPU. Some older BIOS versions will have problems with different CPU-steppings. Upgrade the HAL to uni...

the 3200 very likely stands for the array controller, which (Smart Array Controller 3200). The thing I not understand is, that you are using a FC hub as well as a FC switch, they are using different topologies. The hub is using (FC-AL)arbitrated loop, an older technology, and the switch is...

sorry for the delay, I was not in office for a few days. :-) Boot sequence: the order you switch on your SAN. you need ALWAYS the following order: FC-switch(es). It takes a few minutes, until they have ran all selftests and are conpletely initialised. Then you can switch on your primary...

Hi there, sorry for the delay :-) . Just to make the situation a bit more clear: Which version of netware is used with which patch level, and which driver version is used either? How much servers are attached to the SAN? What kind of HBA's? (probably Emulex, but which ones?) Are you aware...

Had another ,look on that problem. Since you don't have secure path installed, the driver itself is controlling only the pathways. You pulled the cable, therefore the driver switched over, and by default it obviously does not switch back when the link becomes alive again. So your controller...

Okay, under netware does the driver the switching al right. If you use netware only, there should not be much trouble without zoning. As soon, as another OS comes into the game, you will need to have zones, otherwhise you might crash your luns. Hoever, I learned in your first posting, that you...

if you have a Open Manage CD, try to locate "OMclean.exe". This tool wipes all of your OM-Installation from the OS, and you should be able to give it another try. Should be working fine. Unfortunately not downloadable yet. Cheers

in an active / passive configuration (transparent failover) you would not need necessarily secure path, but can work with Selected Storage Presentation (SSP). If it is active / active (multpath), you will require secure path.

did you add those disks to an exisiting array, or did you create a new volume? In last case something is wrong anyway, as compaq disks are 18.2 gb in size anyway. if you use noncpq disks, you will have problem swith the smart array contoller, as those wouldn't work properly with disks having...

Did you configure the disk in the ACU (Array Configuration utility?) Just connecting the disk to the controller does not do this trick, you need to tell the controller what he is supposed to do with the disk. Once configured, you should see it in OS.

It is designed and possible to hotplug the cables during production. Usually you will have redundand pathways anyway (either selected storage presentation or securepath). But you have to make sure the FC-Hub or FC-switch is not switched off, as there is a special boot sequence to be proceeded...
