MSA2040

[Jason Boon]

Hi,

I have a MSA240, I have read these support active - active mode. Is this the default mode and how can I check it is in this mode. I have a management port on each controller but I can only connect to the manage port on the bottom controller. I can ping the IP for the other management port on the other controller.

Both controllers have a staus of 'Operational' and both management ports have a status of 'manual'

Many Thanks

JB

This array works in active/active ALUA mode, this means each controller is the owner of one or more vdisks. Each controller module has a management controller (MC) and a storage controller.

I would try to restart the MC of controller A like this:
