Server ID switch settings set the server ID to a value from 00 - 77. Server ID switch
X1 is for setting the ones position, and Server ID switch X10 is for setting the tens
position. The settings of the two server ID switches, when used together, provide a
two-digit ID of the server unit. The storage-management software uses the server
ID to provide a correlation between the storage-management graphics and the
physical storage unit. The ID indicates which physical unit corresponds to the
storage-management software status.
Use Server ID switches X10 and X1 to set the server-unit ID to any value from 0
through 7.
Note: Each server unit should have a unique ID if it is going to be connected to
other drive expansion units through the drive loop ports. The Server ID
setting is only valid for the drive loop. The amber Conflict LED (located on
the right-side of the switch) will be lit if there is another unit in the drive loop
that has the same ID setting as the server ID. See your storage server
documentation for more information.
Configuring the storage subsystem
You must configure the storage subsystem configuration after you install the storage
server in a rack. Use the information in the following sections to configure your
storage subsystem configuration.
Storage subsystem management methods
Before you configure the storage subsystem, determine which method of storage
subsystem management you want to use. You can manage the storage subsystems
in either of two ways: Host-agent management or Direct-management.
