5.1.6 Note on server maintenance in a Multipath I/O
environment
When booting your server offline from the ServerView Suite DVD 1 to perform
an offline driver update using the ServerView Update DVD or collect diagnostic
data using PrimeCollect in a Multipath I/O environment, there is a risk of
damaging the system configuration which may leave the system unable to boot.
This is a known restriction of Windows PE with Multipath drivers.
Before using the ServerView Update DVD or PrimeCollect in an offline
environment, Fujitsu recommends to properly shut down the server and to
disconnect all external I/O connections (like LAN or FC cables) from the system.
Only keep mouse, keyboard, video cable and AC power cord connected.
Continue as follows:
Ê If performing an offline driver update, first of all prepare the ServerView
Update DVD:
Ê Download the latest ServerView Update DVD image from the Fujitsu
FTP server at:
ftp://ftp.ts.fujitsu.com/images/serverview
Ê Burn the image to a DVD.
