6. Verify that the IPSHA Disk Group x groups can be brought online. Right-click on
the group that you want, and then select Move Group. If an IPSHA Disk Group x
group cannot be brought online. It either shows as Failed in the "moving to" node
or as Online in the "starting from" node. If this occurs, shutdown both servers
and restart Server 1. After Server 1 restarts, start Server 2 and repeat step 5 on
Server 2.
Note: If this procedure is not successful, you need to move the resource to a dif-
ferent node. The first time you perform this procedure, it might take five
minutes for the resource to appear online. To recover this, do the follow-
ing:
a. Right-click on each failed resource, and then click Move. This moves
the resource over to the node and it appears in an Online state. If you
try to move it back, it appears as failed.
b. When all of the resources are moved to the other node and all
resources are online, restart the server that failed.
c. After the server restarts and the cluster starts, move the resources
back to the original node so that they appear in an online status.
If you are still unable to bring IPSHA Disk Group x groups online in either server
node, call IBM support.
