1.4.3
Change Box ID
This function changes the Box ID that identifies an ETERNUS DX in the user system.
Box ID is used as information to identify the ETERNUS DX from applications connected to the ETERNUS DX. The
initial Box ID is a device ID that is created by combining device information (series name, model, serial
number, etc.).
If upgrading or replacing the ETERNUS DX, the existing Box ID will change with the ETERNUS DX change.
Therefore, there is a risk that the backup data saved in the previous ETERNUS DX cannot be used, so it is
necessary to reconfigure the user system after the ETERNUS DX is upgraded or replaced. This function changes
the device BOX ID to the same ID as that of the previous ETERNUS DX in order to avoid any problems and also
use the same backup data in the new storage system.
For details on the parameters for this function, refer to
"A.1.3.3 Change Box ID" (page 671)
.
For the factory default settings for this function, refer to
"Appendix B Change Box ID" (page 972)
.
If "Yes" is selected for "Synchronize with NTP Server" when there is no NTP server connection or when
communication with the NTP server is unstable, the required time for the date and time setting may
take longer. Wait until the screen is updated. Even if connection to the NTP server fails, the date and
time setting appear as though they have completed. To confirm that the ETERNUS DX is successfully
connected to the NTP server, start this function again and check "Access Status" in the "NTP Settings"
field.
•
A Box ID is a unique name in the user system. Make the Box ID different from that of other ETERNUS DX
storage systems in the user system. If the Box ID is not changed, the Device ID is used as a Box ID.
•
If the ETERNUS DX Box ID is changed after setting the Advanced Copy path information, Remote
Advanced Copy (REC) will no longer run. After recreating the Advanced Copy path information with the
new Box ID, reconfigure the Advanced Copy path information on all ETERNUS DX storage systems that are
set with a path to the ETERNUS DX that had the Box ID changed.
•
This function cannot be used under the following conditions:
-
An Advanced Copy session (except an Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) session, an Extended Copy
(XCOPY) session, and a Virtual Volume session) exists
-
A volume that is used for the Storage Cluster function exists
