Task 10: Configure the HBA/Initiator Records

The replacement BE contains a new midplane that is assigned different identifiers than were assigned to
the midplane in the faulted BE.
To configure the HBA/Initiator records maintaining the connections running from the replacement BE to the
storage array or switch:


Set up the replacement BE


Remove the old initiator records

Collect the new WWNs

Recreate the initiator records

Verify the new connections

Configure the Blades

Test the functionality of the system
Set Up the Replacement BE
1. [ ] Add the replacement BE to the database, and set up the enclosure ID on the backplane by issuing:
# /nasmcd/sbin/setup_enclosure -addEnclosure <Blade_enclosure_ID>
Note: If the setup_enclosure -addEnclosure command fails, use the setup_enclosure
-checkCable and setup_enclosure -checkSystem commands to identify the reason for the failure.
