Using Maintenance Features Execute an IPL Caution: The Ethernet connection between the HP StorageWorks HA-Fabric Manager (HAFM) server and director is interrupted momentarily during an IPL. Note: An initial program load (IPL) is not intended for ordinary or casual use and should only be performed if the active CTP card is suspected to be faulty. This operation resets the active CTP card (an IML resets both CTP cards). Do not use this option unless directed by your support representative or if you need to reset a failed CTP card. If it is necessary for you to execute an IPL on the director, use the following steps: 1. Choose IPL from the Configure menu on the menu bar. The IPL Confirmation dialog box displays, as shown in Figure 59. Figure 59: IPL Confirmation dialog box 2. Click Yes. Choosing IPL from the Maintenance menu causes Ethernet connection between the director and HAFM server to drop momentarily. The following occurs in the Product Manager window: ■ As the network connection drops, the Director Status table on the Hardware View turns yellow. ■ The Status field in the table displays No Link and the State field displays the reason for no link. ■ A gray square displays in the status bar. Refer to Table 2 for an explanation of this status bar display. ■ The FRUs in the illustration in the Hardware View do not display. They display again as the connection is reestablished. 176 Director Product Manager User Guide
