Example
The following output shows the state of all ports on both controller modules. Ports e0b and e0e are
in the
disabled
cluster1::> storage port show
Node
------------------ ---- ----- ------ --------------- --------- ---- ----------
node1
node2
Step 2.
If the command output shows the state as
completing the following steps.
Otherwise, you can proceed to the "Installing a drive shelf for a hot-add" section.
Step 3.
Enable the e0b and e0e ports on one of the controller modules (so that they can be used for
storage):
storage port enable -node node name -port e0b
storage port enable -node node name -port e0e
Note: After you enter the first command, you will see output telling you to reboot the controller
module. Wait until you have entered both commands before rebooting the controller module.
Step 4.
Reboot the controller module so that the port changes take effect:
system node reboot -node node name -reason reason for the reboot
Step 5.
After the controller module has completed its reboot, repeat
2
for the second controller module.
The reboot can take up to 15 minutes.
Step 6.
Verify that the e0b and e0e ports are in the
storage port show
You can enter the command on either controller module.
Installing a drive shelf for a hot-add
Installing a new DM240N drive shelf involves installing the shelf into a rack or cabinet, connecting the power
cords (which automatically powers on the shelf), and then setting the shelf ID.
Step 1.
Install the rail mount kit that came with your shelf by using the installation flyer that came in the kit
box.
Attention: Do not flange-mount the shelf.
Step 2.
Install and secure the shelf onto the support brackets and rack or cabinet by using the installation
flyer.
Attention: A fully loaded DM240N shelf can weigh up to 66.78 lbs (30.29 kg) and requires two
people to lift or use of a hydraulic lift. Avoid removing shelf component (from the front or rear of the
shelf), to reduce the shelf weight, because shelf weight will become unbalanced.
Step 3.
Connect the power cords to the shelf, secure them in with the power cord retainer, and then
connect the power cords to different power sources for resiliency.
