I'm adding 8 DS14mkII shelves on Sunday morning. The new FC controllers are already in the Filer (FAS940 running DOT 6.5.4) and blinking away. I also slid the 8 trays in (very carefully) over the past 2 weeks and cabled the copper interconnects up in-to-out between shelves this afternoon.
Sunday morning we'll shut the Oracle DB's down and do the following:
1. Run the Fiber cable between the FC controller A/B ports and the Fiber based DS14 shelves. (we installed 2 and are planning on putting 4 each shelves per FC controller) 2. Run the "storage enable adapter n" command. 3. Flip the Terminator switch on the Fiber IN ports of each of the 4 ports across the two Fiber based shelves.
My question is:
Does it matter in which order I flip the terminator switch and/or run the "storage" command? Should I flip the Terminator switch off and *then* issue the "storage" command? I'm thinking Terminator switch last....
TIA
