6.6 Warm Swapping an ISE

Warm swapping is the procedure by which an ISE can be replaced or added to a
running system without interrupting system operations.

Caution

The procedure must be followed carefully. If a parameter is not entered
correctly, then a system reboot is necessary or the ISE (and possibly the
system) is rendered unusable.

The VMS operating system recognizes an ISE by its unique values for
the NODENAME and SYSTEMID parameters. If only one of these
parameters is changed, VMS inhibits connections to the old and new
parameters for the ISE.

Variations of this procedure depend on the purpose for the warm swap. An ISE
can be warm swapped for the following reasons:

•

Removal and replacement for storage

Managing Integrated Storage Elements 6–3
