You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to add a control enclosure back into the system after it is either removed or
rejected.
About this task
Attention: Before you add a control enclosure to a system, configure
the switch zoning. The control enclosure to add must be in the
same zone as all other control enclosure in the system. You can
replace a control enclosure when the switch is
zoned by worldwide port name (WWPN) rather than by switch port. To use the same WWPNs,
carefully adhere to this service procedure.
Procedure
To add a control enclosure to a system, complete
the following procedure:
-
Issue this CLI command to list the control enclosure candidates:
lscontrolenclosurecandidate
This output is an example of what you might see
after you run the lscontrolenclosurecandidate command:
serial_number product_MTM
G00F7GY 2076-624
-
Issue this CLI command to add the control enclosure:
addcontrolenclosure -iogrp 1
-sernum G00F7GY
The 0 value is the I/O
group where you add the control enclosure. The G00F7GY value is the
serial number for the control enclosure.
Note: In a service situation, add a
control enclosure back into a system by
using the original control enclosure name. When
the partner control enclosure in the I/O
group is not deleted, the I/O group name is the default when the
-name value is not specified.
The following example output might result:
Enclosure containing Node, id [x], successfully added
Attention: If more than one candidate
control
enclosure exists, add it into same I/O group to which it belonged before it was
deleted. Failure to do so might result in data corruption. If you are uncertain about
which candidate control enclosure belongs to
the I/O group, shut down all host systems that access this system. Restart each system
after you add all control enclosures back into
the system.
-
Issue this CLI command to ensure that the node was added successfully:
Results
All control enclosures are now
online.
