Disk Enclosure Movement
For the movement of the position to which the disk enclosure is connected (including the
change of the AL-PA switch on the disk enclosure), the disk enclosure movement feature
reconfigures the disk drives within the disk enclosure with no destruction of ranks and
LDs configured by the disk drives in the disk enclosure to make the host see that the disk
enclosure operates normally.
However, do not conduct the following operations.
(1) Movement of only a part of the disk enclosures when a rank configured over more
than one disk enclosure exist
(2) Movement of disk enclosure for which data is recovered in the spare disk
(3) Movement of disk enclosure in which the disk array unit is operating
(4) Movement of disk enclosure in which cache is subject to battery backup
(5) Movement of disk enclosure in which defected disk drive is installed.
(6) Movement of disk enclosure with the AL-PA switch set to "0"
If the disk enclosure movement fails, the SERVICE LED on the array controller repeats
the operation of flashing for six times and turning-off.
If so, return the disk enclosure to the original state.

Setting of OS Type
The OS type must be set for each port connected to the host when the Port Mode is used
or when the Access Control is not used.
If the host containing several kinds of operating systems is connected to one port, you
may specify one of them. However, if the host using Solaris or AIX is contained, specify
it in preference to other operating systems.
If the host using both Solaris and AIX is contained, specify either one operating system.
The OS type can be set with the "Configuration Setting" of the management software
(NEC Storage Manager).
In the WWn mode, use "LD Set Type" of the NEC Storage Manager to specify the OS.
