Verifying Virtual Manager Status; Stopping A Virtual Manager; Removing A Virtual Manager - HP StorageWorks P4000 User Manual

Verifying virtual manager status

Verify whether a virtual manager has been started, and if so, which storage system it is started on.
Select the virtual manager icon in the navigation window. The Details tab displays the location and
status of the virtual manager.

Stopping a virtual manager

When the situation requiring the virtual manager is resolved either the unavailable site recovers or
the communication link is restored you must stop the virtual manager. Stopping the virtual manager
returns the management group to a fault tolerant configuration.
1. Select the storage system with the virtual manager.
2. Click storage system Tasks on the Details tab, and select Stop Virtual Manager.
A confirmation message opens.
3. Click OK.
The virtual manager is stopped. However, it remains part of the management group and part of
the quorum.

Removing a virtual manager

You can remove the virtual manager from the management group altogether.
1. Select the management group from which you want to remove the virtual manager, and log in.
2. Click Management Group Tasks on the Details tab, and select Delete Virtual Manager.
A confirmation window opens.
3. Click OK to continue.
The virtual manager is removed.
NOTE:
The CMC will not allow you to delete a manager or virtual manager if that deletion causes a loss of
quorum.
