presentation to new initiators), and does not require the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module to be in a factory reset state. If a new controller is installed, the full configuration can be restored and no reconfiguration is required. When using HP P6000 Command View to uninitialize a P63x0 or P65x0 array, the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE modules are issued reset mappings and are rebooted, to avoid stale persistent data, without clearing configured IP addresses. NOTE: A Restore action will reboot the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE modules. Periodic backup helps restore the iSCSI controller configuration for offline replacement. While enabling the backup configuration for iSCSI controller, you have to specify the time for periodic backup. This retrieves the existing iSCSI configuration from the controllers and save it on the local system. Figure 43 iSCSI controller configuration selection To save or restore the configuration: 1. Select the iSCSI controller in the Navigation pane. 2. Select Set Options. 3. Select Save/Restore configuration. 4. Select the configuration method.

The amber MEZZ LED (2, Figure 44 (page 54)) indicates the status of the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module. Locating the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE modules 53
