Media Flow Controller Configuration Tasks (CLI)
To add a disk, or disks, on a VXA Series Media Flow Engine to an unconfigured slot:
1. From Enable or Configuration mode in the CLI, check the current drive list; you may
want to note the drives you have installed:
show media-cache disk list
2. Insert the new disks and reboot:
reload
3. When you are prompted to open the Adaptec Utility, press Ctrl+a to open the utility.
The Adaptec Utility menu is displayed.
4. Select Array Configuration Utility.
The Configuration Change confirmation window is displayed.
5. Select Accept.
The Configuration Utility Main menu is displayed.
6. Use the arrow keys to select Initialize Drives, and press Enter.
A list of discovered drives is displayed.
7. Select the drive or drives that you added, and press Enter.
A warning message is displayed.
If you are unsure which drives to select, you can use the Esc key to exit to the
Adaptec Utility menu and use the Disk Utilities function to identify the drives.
8. Enter Yes.
An Initializing is Done message is displayed.
9. Press any key to continue.
The Configuration Utility Main menu is displayed.
10. Select Create JBOD, and press Enter.

The system reboots automatically.
14. Using the Media Flow Controller CLI, mount the new disks and activate them:

show media-cache disk list
media-cache disk <disk_name> activate
15. Verify the new disks are properly mounted:

Note!
The documented disk replacement procedure for replacing a bad disk on VXA Series
works correctly provided that Media Flow Controller can still identify the disk (show media-
cache disk list).
