Removing drives from the Hitachi Unified Storage 130
The Hitachi Unified Storage 130 enclosure contains system drives in trays
0-4 and can contain additional drives in trays 5-14. The Hitachi Unified
Storage 150 does not contain drives within its enclosure and requires a
separately connected DBS, DBL, or DBX Drive Box.
During the upgrade, you move the row of drives from the Hitachi Unified
Storage 130 CBSL/CBSS to a DBS, DBL, or DBX Drive Box connected to the
Hitachi Unified Storage 150. Typically, this row of drives is the first drive
box, with unit ID#0, attached to the Hitachi Unified Storage 150.
Because the Hitachi Unified Storage 150 enclosure does not contain drives,
the first 15 drives, including the system drives, in the Hitachi Unified
Storage 130 must be rotated into the first DBS or DBL connected to the
Hitachi Unified Storage 150.
-
Drives installed in a CBSL Controller Box rotate to a DBL Drive Box.
-
Drives installed in a a CBSS Controller Box rotate to a DBS Drive
Box.
Collecting drive serial numbers
When you rotate drives, drives from the Hitachi Unified Storage 130 must
be installed into the corresponding slots in the Hitachi Unified Storage 150
Drive Box. To ensure that the drives are rotated into the appropriate drive
slots, use Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2 to collect information about
the slots where the drives are installed in the Hitachi Unified Storage 130.
1. With Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2 operating in Maintenance
Mode, under the Array Name column, click the name of the Hitachi
Unified Storage system in the Arrays page.
2. In the middle pane, click Settings > Constitute Array.
