Re: VLS6870. enclosure doesn`t take address.

Hi Azamat,

You got to be careful in the power on Sequence of these Enclosures. Please Turn off all the enclosures and the VLS node.

The power on sequence should always start from the farthest enclosure from the node. So assuming all your enclosures are in one rack with the VLS, start from the bottom most and then move upwards. Once all the enclosures are up, then start the Node.

Verify the enclosure ID's thereafter.

Refer to user guide:-
