Preparing a New IOP for Installation After removing the IOP from the Endurance server configuration, prepare the replacement IOP for installation: Step 1 2 3 Action Notes Install any hardware for your IOP using the procedures in Chapter 2 of the HP Netserver AA Solution Installation Guide. Decide which, if any, disks will be transferred to the new IOP. When you install those disks, make sure that their new configuration is identical to the configuration that was used in the IOP that you are replacing. If you are installing and replacing existing mirrored disks with new disks, make sure that the new disk's configuration is identical to the disk that you are replacing (including the same SCSI bus number and device ID). When using RAID controllers, you must replicate the logical disk configuration in use on the other IOP. If using RAID0 hardware configurations, you can replace a disk with one larger than its counterpart in the other IOP. However, you will not be able to use the excess capacity.
