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
.

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.
