Appendix A: Useful Information

The appendix covers the following topics:
• SNMP MIB Files (below)
• Adding a Second Controller (page 311)

SNMP MIB Files

Promise supplies two MIB files to integrate the VTrak E610f/s or E310f/s
subsystem into your SNMP system. These files are in the SNMP folder on the
VTrak Product CD.
The MIB files are:
• FCMGMT-MIB.mib
• raidv4.mib
For help loading the MIB files, see the instructions that came with your MIB
browser.

Adding a Second Controller

If your VTrak E-Class subsystem shipped with one controller, you can add a
second controller. The second controller must have:
• The same Firmware version as the currently installed controller
• The same amount of SDRAM as the currently installed controller
To obtain this information for the currently installed controller, click on the
Controller
Size.
Obtain your second controller though Promise Technology. Promise Support will
prepare the new controller with Firmware and SDRAM to match your current
VTrak subsystem.
When you order the second controller, you should also order a second cache
battery to power the new controller's cache in the event of a power failure.
The VTrak subsystem boots its controllers sequentially. With a second controller
installed, your subsystem will take about a minute longer to boot. This condition
is normal.

Installing a Second Controller

To install a second controller in your VTrak subsystem:
1. Shut down the subsystem.
