How to Remove a Dual-Controller Configuration
Use this procedure to remove a dual-controller configuration from a running cluster.
This procedure defines
Node A
as the node with which you begin working.
Node B
is
another node in the cluster.
Caution –
During this procedure, you lose access to the data that resides on each
partner group that you are removing.
1. If necessary, back up all database tables, data services, and volumes that are
associated with each partner group that you are removing.
2. If necessary, detach the submirrors from each storage array or partner group that
you are removing. Detach the submirrors to stop all I/O activity to the storage
array or partner group.
For more information, see your Solstice DiskSuite/Solaris Volume Manager or
VERITAS Volume Manager documentation.
3. Remove references to each LUN. This LUN belongs to the storage array or
partner group that you are removing.
For more information, see your Solstice DiskSuite/Solaris Volume Manager or
VERITAS Volume Manager documentation.
4. Determine the resource groups and device groups that are running on all nodes.
Record this information because you use this information in
of this
procedure to return resource groups and device groups to these nodes.

5. Shut down
Node A
.
For the procedure about how to shut down and power off a node, see your Sun
Cluster system administration documentation.
6. Disconnect from both storage arrays the fiber-optic cables that connect to the FC
switches. Then disconnect the Ethernet cables.
7. Is any storage array that you are removing the last storage array that is connected
to an FC switch that is on
Node A
?
■
If no, skip to
■
If yes, disconnect the fiber-optic cable between
Node A
and the FC switch
that was connected to this storage array.
For the procedure about how to remove a fiber-optic cable, see the
Sun StorEdge
6020 and 6120 Array System Manual
