You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to add a control
enclosure back into the system after it is either removed or
rejected.
About this task
Attention: Before you add a control
enclosure to a system, configure the switch zoning. The control
enclosure to add must be in the same zone as all other control
enclosures in the system. You can replace a control
enclosure when the switch is zoned by worldwide port name (WWPN)
rather than by switch port. To use the same WWPNs, carefully adhere
to this service procedure.
Procedure
To add a control enclosure to a system, complete the
following procedure:
- Issue this CLI command to list the control
enclosure candidates:
lscontrolenclosurecandidate
This output is an example of what you might see
after you run the lscontrolenclosurecandidate command:
serial_number product_MTM
G00F7GY 2076-124
- Issue this CLI command to add the control
enclosure:
addcontrolenclosure -iogrp 1 -sernum
G00F7GY
The 0 value
is the I/O group where you add the control enclosure. The 2361443 value
is the serial number for the control enclosure.
Note: In a service
situation, add a control enclosure back into a system by using
the original control enclosure name. When the partner control
enclosure in the I/O group is not deleted, the I/O group name
is the default when the -name value is not
specified.
The following
example output might result:
Enclosure containing Node, id [x], successfully added
Attention: If more than one candidate control enclosure exists, add it into same I/O group to which
it belonged before it was deleted. Failure to do so might result in data corruption. If you are
uncertain about which candidate control enclosure belongs to the I/O group, shut down all host systems that
access this system. Reboot each system after you add all control enclosuresback into the system.
- Issue this CLI command to ensure that the node was added
successfully:
svcinfo lsnodecanister
This output is an example of what you might see
when you run the lsnodecanister command:
