Recovering Passwords

The storage router management interface is password protected. You must enter
passwords when accessing the storage router via Telnet (for the CLI) or the
web-based GUI. Password protection can also be enabled for the storage router
console interface, requiring that the same Administrator and Monitor mode
passwords that are configured for the management interface be applied to the
console interface.

If the passwords have been enabled for the console interface and are lost, you can
recover management access to the storage router using the password recovery
procedure. The password recovery procedure requires physical access to the
storage router console and can be found at the following URL:

Controlling SCSI Routing Instances in a Cluster

It is important to know where SCSI routing instances are running. While
automatic failover capabilities keep the storage router cluster operational in times
of system difficulties, manual HA controls provide the ability to distribute SCSI
routing instances between the storage routers in a cluster to meet your specific
network requirements.

The following are typical activities involved with controlling SCSI routing
instances in a cluster environment. While most of these activities are performed
infrequently, some (such as viewing operational statistics) may be performed on a
regular basis.

Making Changes to Instance Configurations

Enabling and Disabling Connections

Stopping and Starting Instances
