If neither of these options is practical, you will have to follow
the steps under
Power Down Option
1. Power down every node on the source network.
2. Join the two network segments together.
3. Power up each node, one at a time. You should wait for the
node to enter graphics mode before powering up the next node.
If the node is a Server node, it will boot up as a Client node.
Use
Configuration-> System Options-> Console Options
from
the OIS12 Main menu (for that particular node) and redefine it
as a Server node again (including creating a redundant group,
if necessary), then shut down and reboot the node to enable
the Server software.
Physically Switch Networks Option
1. Power down a node on the source network.
2. Disconnect the node from the source network and recon-
nect it to the master network.
3. Power up the node. If the node was a Server node, it will
boot up as a Client node. Use
Configuration-> System
Options-> Console Options
from the OIS12 Main menu (for
that particular node) and redefine it as a Server node again
(including creating a redundant group if necessary), then shut
down and reboot the node to enable the Server software.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 for each node on the source network.
Operational Option
1. Disconnect as many server nodes from the source network
as you need to maintain operational status. Until they are
reconnected to the master network, they will act as
stand-alone machines. (Redundant server pairs will become
independent stand-alone servers.)
2. Power down all other nodes on the source network.
3. Join the two network segments together.
4. Power up each node, one at a time. You should wait for the
node to enter graphics mode before powering up the next node.
WARNING
If you forget to power down even one node you will experience
problems.
