Reconnecting Mirrored Volumes
Before you begin, ensure that you are connected to each iSCSI Storage Appliance
that hosts the mirrored volumes, using either a monitor and keyboard or a serial
cable connected to a system running a terminal emulation program.
Note
In these steps, the iSCSI Storage Appliance with the replaced flash drive is
called Appliance A; the iSCSI Storage Appliance that contains the mirrored
volumes is called Appliance B.
1
Use Appliance B’s CLI to ensure that Appliance B is logged in to Appliance A.
If Appliance A does not have a new IP address, skip to Step d below.
If Appliance A has a new IP address:
a
Type
controller manage Appliance_A ip remove oldIPaddress
, then press
Enter
.
b
Type
controller manage Appliance_A ip add newIPaddress
, then press
Enter
.
c
Appliance B logs in to Appliance A. (This may take a few moments.)
d
Type
controller list
, then press
Enter
.
Confirm that Appliance A’s controller is listed.
2
Use Appliance A’s CLI to reconnect Appliance A to Appliance B.
a
Type
controller discover IPaddress_of_applianceB
, then press
Enter
.
b
Type
controller add IPaddress_of_applianceB
, then press
Enter
.
c

Enter
. Confirm that Appliance B’s controller is
listed.

A’s mirrors.

mirror manage m1 plex 0/1 IPaddress_of_ApplianceB_iSCSI_interface
, then
press
Enter
.
b
Repeat Step 1 for each mirror.
