    4. Disable Periodic Drive Check Time: From the Main Menu, choose “view and edit Configuration parameters,” then choose “Drive-side SCSI Parameters.” Set the “Periodic Drive Check Time” option to Disabled, then confirm Yes. This procedure is now complete. 2.1.4.4 If the Logical Drive Status is REBUILDING The rebuilding process refers to the rebuilding of the logical drive in which the data from a defective disk drive is restored to a global spare.
  • Page 22 Note – These features are Disabled by default. These features requires system resources and can impact performance. Periodic Auto-Detect Failure Drive Swap Check Time This menu option periodically polls the unit to detect the replacement of a bad drive. If no spare drive is present in the array, the logical drive begins an automatic rebuild of a degraded RAID set when the firmware detects replacement of the bad drive.

To replace the chassis frame of an existing RAID array or expansion unit, perform the following steps. 1. Connect to the firmware application via the serial interface (tip for Solaris/Linux) or via telnet.
  • Page 87 a. Connect to the array console menu interface via the serial interface (tip for Solaris/Linux) or via telnet. b. From the Main Menu, choose “view and edit Configuration parameters,” then “Controller Parameters.” c. Select “Controller Unique Identifier (hex).” 17. If this array is being used by clustered hosts, or for any other reason its attached hosts require that their Device IDs remaining consistent, perform these steps: a.

    The value 0 is immediately replaced with the hex value of the chassis serial number. d. To implement the revised parameter value, choose “system Functions” on the Main Menu, choose “Reset Controller” and press Return. 19. Connect the array to hosts according to the configuration identified in Step 4 Step 5.

    6.6.1 External Terminators for Special Dual-Bus JBOD Maintenance If you have JBOD I/O modules, part number 370-5396-02/50 or higher, use this information. Note – This new I/O module supports both single-initiator and multi-initiator dual- bus configurations. The older I/O module supports only single-initiator dual-bus configurations.

    Caution – SCSI IDs are based on the cabling of the array when the array is powered up. If you are removing host connections from a dual-host dual-bus multi-initiator configuration, use terminators to preserve the existing SCSI ID assignments (as well as the termination on the bottom SCSI ports).
  • Page 91 Caution – In a cluster configuration, adding a separate host connection that was not originally planned for the array will cause a change in SCSI IDs and therefore loses access to data stored under the original SCSI IDs. To keep other host connections operational while one host connection is temporarily removed, perform the following steps.
  • Page 92 Scenario #1 Disconnect 1 cable from A-IN port: 1. Disconnect Host 1 cable from port A-IN. 2. Unplug cable from port A-OUT and move it to port A-IN. 3. Install a terminator in port A-OUT. Scenario #2 Disconnect 1 cable from B-IN port: 1.

    Installing a Filler Panel on a SCSI Array The filler panel FRU is a single metal panel used to cover an empty controller module slot on the rear of a Sun StorEdge 3310 SCSI array. Most often, this occurs when you wish to remove a controller module and change a dual-controller array to a single-controller array.

    C H A P T E R Sun StorEdge 3120 SCSI Array FRUs This chapter provides instructions for removing and installing field-replaceable units (FRUs) which are specific to the Sun StorEdge 3120 SCSI array. FRU components can be replaced by customers or by Sun service representatives. At this time, there is only one FRU procedure which is unique to the Sun StorEdge 3120 SCSI array.

  • Page 96: Note - Be Sure To Follow "Static Electricity Precautions

    Caution – Connected hosts must be inactive during this replacement procedure. Note – Be sure to follow “Static Electricity Precautions” on page 1-5 for all procedures. 1. Power off both power supply modules on the defective array. 2. Ensure all SCSI cables attached to the I/O module are labeled clearly. 3.
