SV Router Replacement
Replacing Standalone Router
Because of the possible problems that can occur from improper router replacement, we
strongly recommend that you contact Vicom before proceeding.
1. Stop I/O from data servers to the SV Router.
2. Power on the replacement SV Router.
3. Clear the SAN Database of the replacement routers.
4. Using the serial port, configure the SV Router’s settings. Use the same settings as the
previous router.
5. Power off the replacement SV Router.
6. Power off and remove the failed SV Router.
7. Cable the replacement router to the system. Do not cable to the data server’s FC HBAs.
8. Power on the SV Router.
9. The daemon must be configured to talk with that router.
10. Start the daemon in the management server.
11. Using the
sanconfig write
command, download the drive configuration to the
replacement router.
Example:
sanconfig write -d SAN1r0 -e /svengine/SANconf/T3SAN.san -m
physical logical
12. After the download, cycle SV Router power.
13. Ensure the green LED is solid-on in the front of the powered-on SV Router.
14. Use the
showmap
command to view drive configurations and ensure they are restored.
Example
showmap -d SAN1r0
