What action plan need to follow after chnage HBA card on HPUX 11i v2

[Aungshuman Paul]

Hello,

Can anyone help on following issue :

For some avoidable reason we need to change the HBA card on a rx2660 machine ( the OS is HPUX 11.23).

The storage is MSA1000. No graphical interface is available.

The problem is when we change the HBA card its WWN number is changed and disk is no longer available to the system. Then we immediately rollback the HBA card its old one.

Now my query what is details procedure to doing HBA card on the system ( in MSA part and OS part).

Wait for experts reply.

If your zoning is WWN based, you need to adjust it.
If the MSA is using SSP, this needs to be adjusted too (via ACU, ACUCLI or serial CLI).

Hi,

There is no active zoning on SAN switch. And what we have to did in OS site after fix the SSP in MSA ?


Actually I am bit worried beacuse the system is in production and business critical.

Waiting for response.

Hi,

One more information the system only have one HBA. So after replace the HBA card the disk is not accessible from the system.

Please suggest.

There is nothing to do on OS side.

As said, if SSP is enabled, you need to adjust it (selective storage presentation - what WWN is allowed to see what LUN).
