5.

When you install a new interface controller, you must use a different power-on procedure one time:
a. Turn on the power to the library.
b. Wait approximately two minutes and turn off the power to the library.
c. Wait several seconds and turn on the power to the library again.

NOTE:

This power-on procedure is performed to allow the Interface Manager card time to

configure the interface controller. Once configured, the interface controller is reset

(powered off and on) to allow the new settings to take effect.

6.

Make sure the power LED and link LEDs on the interface controller are solid green. The link LEDs

indicate a good connection (see

HP StorageWorks e2400-FC 2Gb interface controller

” on page 57).

7.

Use the Interface Manager CLI or the HP StorageWorks Command View TL to make sure that the new

interface controller is detected, and to perform configuration and firmware updates, if necessary.
