Configuring a controller for clustering
Complete the following steps to configure a controller for clustering.
Note: For complete information on using the ServeRAID Manager program, see the
ServeRAID Manager online help.
1. Insert the IBM ServeRAID Support CD into the CD-ROM drive; then, turn on the
server. The ServeRAID Manager program starts.
2. If the ServeRAID Manager program detects unconfigured ServeRAID controllers
and ready drives, the program automatically starts the Configuration wizard, and
a window similar to the following opens. To exit the Configuration wizard, click
Cancel ; then, in the confirmation window, click Yes .
3. In the ServeRAID Manager tree, click the ServeRAID controller that you want to
configure.
Attention
Restore the ServeRAID controller to factory-default settings only once, when the controller
is first installed. This process removes all configuration information from NVRAM, including
the SCSI initiator IDs, the controller and partner names, and the array information.
This point is especially important if the Windows 2000 or Windows NT 4.0 system startup
drive is attached to the IBM ServeRAID controller. If this process occurs after the startup
drive array has been created, the array information will be removed, and the system will no
longer start in Windows 2000 or Windows NT 4.0.
If you already have logical drives defined that you want to keep, go to step 6. Steps 4 and 5
will cause loss of data by deleting all logical drives already defined.
