Hipath 4000 V-2 convert simplex to duplex

[AbdulRashid]

we have Hipath 4000 v-2 with simplex processor.I want convert it in duplex processor.Do i have to make new hard disk or i can use same hard by using CHA-DBs:4000,6;

That does need to be done; however, you will lose your Switching Unit database if you change the architecture type using EXE-DBC. There is no way to avoid that from happening. Therefore you should make a backup prior to changing the architecture setting. I suggest using STA-REGEN, which can be run from Assistant > Config Management > HiPath Inventory Management > RMX Backup if you are not familiar with AMO REGEN.

In addition to the architecture type in AMO DBC, you will need to add a second DSCXL (SWU "B"), a second RTM, the cables from the RTM to the LTUCA boards, and perhaps a few more parameters here and there - mwhich is why I suggested using an AMO-based backup. As you enter the new database AMO by AMO, you can correct/resolve each problem as you go.

Good luck.

Thank you (IamNotThere).I know the rest of work but I was trying
to find out shortcut.I do not want make new hard disk,regen,step
by step AMO input.

Thanks and Regards.

Probably not relevant anymore in your case, but just for future reference - some useful details can be found out by checking the hardware architecture table:

STA-LIST:"DS:APSU/HWARCH0",,,m,n;

; 8. To change the OPMODE you have to execute: e.g.                |
;    - CHA-DBC:OPMODE=SIMPLEX;                                     |
;      no new data base generation is necessary                    |
;                                                                  |
; 9. If a 4x00 MONO will be changed to a 4x00 DUAL, it is          |
;    not necessary to generate the database if the DB-Layout       |
;    ( DBAPPL ) is the same.                                       |
;                                                                  |
;    e.g.:                                                         |
;    4000,01 -> 4000,04 : Databaselayout equal ( DBSMALL )         |
;    Generating the SWU-Database is not necessary.                 |
;    4000,01 -> 4000,06 : Databaselayout not equal                 |
;                         ( DBSMALL -> DBLARGE )                   |
;    Generating the SWU-Database is necessary.                     |
