Assigned CMs
A controller that controls access is assigned to each RAID group and manages the load balance in
the
ETERNUS DX. The controller that controls a RAID group is called an assigned CM.

When the load is unbalanced between the controllers, change the assigned CM. For more details,
refer to "Change Controlling CM" in "ETERNUS Web GUI User's Guide".
If an assigned controller is disconnected for any reason, the assigned CM is replaced by another
controller. After the disconnected controller is installed again and returns to normal status, this
controller becomes the assigned CM again.
