Replacing an HBA
Procedure for Replacing a QLogic HBA in Stratus ftServers without Rebooting
EMC CLARiiON
Storage arrays
Use of this procedure requires NAVICLI installed on the host system.
1. Remove the IO slice that contains the defective QLogic HBA.
2. Replace the defective HBA with a new HBA of same Stratus part
number (that is, U525 or U526). The HBA should be inserted into
the same PCI slot from which the defective HBA was removed.
(Inserting the replacement HBA into another PCI slot requires a
driver to be loaded for the HBA)
3. Re-insert IO slice with the new HBA, and re-connect all cables.
4. Power up the ftServer, and let the IO Slice come on-line and
duplex, as shown in the Stratus ftServer Management tool.
5. Change the FC switch zoning to add the WWN of the replaced
HBA to the appropriate zones.
6. Restart the Navisphere Agent using the Service Control Manager
applet.
7. In the CLARiiON Navisphere Manager, use connectivity status to
verify the new HBA is present and logged in. Alternately, use the
port 'list' command in navicli.
8. Using navicli, connect the HBA to the storage group with the
following command:
navicli –h <Clariion IP Addr> storagegroup –connecthost
–host <host-name> -gname <Storage-group-name>
This command will give the user the following prompt:
Connect host <host-name>to storage group
<Storage-group-name> (y/n)?
Respond with y.
9. Scan for hardware changes from the Windows device manager.
