2. Bind a LUN with the new disks using the management tool of your choice,:
– To use SAM, see "Binding a LUN" on page 267
– To use Array Manager 60, see "Binding a LUN" on page 289
– To use STM, see "Binding a LUN" on page 314
Note After binding a LUN, you must execute the
insf -e
command to install special
device files on the LUN. This makes the LUN usable by the operating system.
3. Disable WCE on the disk modules using the following command:
amutil -w <ArrayID>
See "Disabling Disk Module Write Cache Enable (WCE)" on page 302 for more
information.
Moving Disks from One Disk Array to Another
C AUTION
Before moving disks from one array to another, ensure that there is no
important data on the disks. All data on the disks will be lost when they are
installed in the new disk array.
If you have more than one HP SureStore E Disk Array FC60, you can move disks from one
array to another to balance capacity. The disks can be installed in the new array with
power on and they will be treated as new disks. Any important data on the disks should be
backed up before the disks are moved.
Note Can I move a disk module within the array with power on?
You should not move disks within the array with power on. Moving a disk from
one slot to another will erase the data on the disk module.
