9. Begin restoring the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module configuration by performing the following steps: a. Use the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module serial ports and CLI (as was done when installing the array) to set the static IP addresses, network mask, and gateway address of the management ports used by the replaced controller. Then install the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE management telnet port cable, and continue with the HP P6000 Command View procedure in Step 10. b. If an IP address was assigned by DHCP and you plan to continue using the DHCP IP address, make note of this IP address, install the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE management telnet port cable, and continue with the HP P6000 Command View procedure in Step 10. 10. Complete the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module configuration by using either HP P6000 Command View or the module CLI. Verify that the management server has IP connectivity to the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module management ports of both controllers. NOTE: Wait approximately three minutes for the system to stabilize, and then check the controller status. • Verify the controller health LED is lit (see Table 1). If not, review available failure indicators, check the module error logs and take appropriate action. See the HP P6300/P6500 Enterprise Virtual Array User Guide for iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module troubleshooting and error logs. • From HP P6000 Command View, navigate to the component as described in the Verifying component failure section, and check the status. It should be (Good). NOTE: If the configuration file is not available, you can restore a saved configuration file from the other iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module. If needed, contact HP Support for help editing the configuration file. Using HP P6000 Command View: a. In the Navigation pane, select Hardware > iSCSI Devices, and then select the applicable iSCSI controller (01 or 02). b. Select Set Options. c. Select Register replaced controller. You are prompted to enter the management port IP address and perform an update of the manufacturing data. NOTE: A refresh may be required at the Initialized Storage System Properties top level. d. Check the firmware version of the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module using HP P6000 Command View. In the Navigation pane, select Hardware > iSCSI Devices, and then iSCSI Controller 01 or 02. If necessary, upgrade the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module firmware. See the HP P6300/P6500 Enterprise Virtual Array Installation Guide. e. Select Set Options again, and then select Save/Restore configuration. f. Select Full Configuration Restore. g. Connect the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE data cables to the replace- ment controller. Verifying proper operation After replacing the controller, check the following to verify the component is operating properly: Page 5

Begin restoring the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module configuration by
performing the following steps:
a.
Use the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module serial ports and CLI (as
was done when installing the array) to set the static IP ad-
dresses, network mask, and gateway address of the manage-
ment ports used by the replaced controller. Then install the
iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE management telnet port cable, and con-
tinue with the HP P6000 Command View procedure in
Step
10
.
b.
If an IP address was assigned by DHCP and you plan to con-
tinue using the DHCP IP address, make note of this IP address,
install the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE management telnet port cable,
and continue with the HP P6000 Command View procedure
in
Step 10
.
10.
Complete the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module configuration by using
either HP P6000 Command View or the module CLI. Verify that the
management server has IP connectivity to the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE
module management ports of both controllers.
NOTE:
If the configuration file is not available, you can restore
a saved configuration file from the other iSCSI or
iSCSI/FCoE module. If needed, contact HP Support for
help editing the configuration file.
Using HP P6000 Command View:
a.
In the Navigation pane, select
Hardware > iSCSI Devices
, and
then select the applicable iSCSI controller (01 or 02).
b.
Select
Set Options
.
c.
Select
Register replaced controller
. You are prompted to enter
the management port IP address and perform an update of the
manufacturing data.
NOTE:
A refresh may be required at the Initialized
Storage System Properties top level.
d.
Check the firmware version of the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module
using HP P6000 Command View. In the Navigation pane, se-
lect
Hardware > iSCSI Devices
, and then iSCSI Controller 01
or 02.
If necessary, upgrade the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module firm-
ware. See the
HP P6300/P6500 Enterprise Virtual Array In-
stallation Guide

g.
Connect the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE data cables to the replace-
ment controller.
Verifying proper operation
After replacing the controller, check the following to verify the component
is operating properly:
NOTE:
Wait approximately three minutes for the system to stabilize,
and then check the controller status.
Verify the controller health LED is lit (see
Table 1
). If not, review
available failure indicators, check the module error logs and take
appropriate action. See the
HP P6300/P6500 Enterprise Virtual
Array User Guide
for iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module troubleshooting
and error logs.
From HP P6000 Command View, navigate to the component as de-
scribed in the
Verifying component failure
section, and check the
status. It should be
(Good).
