Changing Expansion Enclosure ID Numbers

When an MD1200 series expansion enclosure is connected to an MD3600i

Series storage array for the first time, an enclosure ID number is assigned and

maintained by the expansion enclosure. This enclosure ID number is also

shown in the MDSM and can be changed if required.
To change the enclosure ID numbers:

1 In the AMW, select the storage array, and select Storage Array

ChangeEnclosure ID.

2 Select a new enclosure ID number from the Change Enclosure ID list.

The enclosure ID must be between 0 and 99 (inclusive).

3 To save the changed enclosure ID, click Change.

Changing the Enclosure Order in the Physical Pane

You can change the order of the RAID controller modules and the expansion

enclosures in the Physical pane to match the hardware configuration in your

storage array. The Physical pane that initially is displayed is a default view

that may not match your storage array. The enclosure order change remains in

effect until it is modified again.
To change the enclosure order in the Physical pane:

1 In the AMW, select Storage ArrayChangeEnclosure Order.
2 From the enclosures list, select the enclosure you want to move and click

either

Up or Down to move the enclosure to the new position.

3 Click OK.

If you have set a password for the selected storage array, the Enter

Password dialog is displayed.

4 Type the current password for the storage array.
5 Click OK.
