Chapter 2 HP NetRAID Assistant • From the main menu, you can choose Physical Drv, then Change Status. You can change the drive status by using the Make Offline or Make Online selection. ◊ When you select Make Offline, the physical drive is changed to the Fail state. An audible warning sounds if the drive is controlled by an HP NetRAID Series adapter. (For an integrated HP NetRAID controller, there is no audible warning.) The logical drive state also changes. With just one physical drive offline, logical drives of RAID 1, 3, 5, 10, 30, and 50 change to Degraded. Logical drives with RAID level 0 change to Offline. ◊ When you select Make Online, you can change a drive from the Failed state to the Ready state. (Do not use this option on a Ready drive. To bring a Ready drive online, use the Configuration Wizard.) E Managing Servers Over the Network The HP NetRAID Series Installation and Configuration Guide and the HP NetServer Integrated NetRAID Controller Configuration Guide list the requirements for clients and servers that manage HP NetRAID over the network. They also tell how to install the software necessary for HP NetRAID Assistant to manage HP NetRAID over the network. Before Starting HP NetRAID Assistant The Registration Server must be running before any other servers are started. • If the Registration Server is a NetWare server, it must be running reg_serv.nlm. • If the Registration Server is a Windows NT or Windows 2000 server, it must be running the NetRAID Registration Server icon (under the NetRAID program group). To access an HP NetRAID Series adapter in a server from the network, the three services listed below must be running. Start them in the order listed. You may set them for automatic start, if desired. 1. NobleNet Portmapper: It should have been installed by the HP NetRAID software and set for automatic start in Windows NT or Windows 2000. In NetWare 4.x, load rpcstart.nlm. In NetWare 5, it is not needed because sockets are used instead. 44
