the following sections.
You will connect the rest of the cables to the controller module later in this procedure.
5. Complete the reinstallation of the controller module:
a. If you have not already done so, reinstall the cable management device.
b. Firmly push the controller module into the chassis until it meets the midplane and is fully seated.
Do not use excessive force when sliding the controller module into the chassis to avoid
damaging the connectors.
The controller module begins to boot as soon as it is fully seated in the chassis. Be prepared to
interrupt the boot process.
c. Rotate the controller module cam handle to the locked position.
d.
Interrupt the boot process by pressing
Ctrl-C when you see Press Ctrl-C for Boot Menu.
e. Select the option to boot to LOADER.
Restore and verify the system configuration - AFF A900
After completing the hardware replacement, you verify the low-level system configuration
of the replacement controller, reconfigure system settings as necessary, and then run
system-level diagnostics.
Step 1: Set and verify the system time after replacing the controller module
You should check the time and date on the replacement controller module against the healthy controller
module in an HA pair, or against a reliable time server in a stand-alone configuration. If the time and date do
not match, you must reset them on the replacement controller module to prevent possible outages on clients
due to time differences.
About this task
It is important that you apply the commands in the steps on the correct systems:
• The replacement node is the new node that replaced the impaired node as part of this procedure.
• The healthy node is the HA partner of the replacement node.
Steps
1. If the replacement node is not at the LOADER prompt, halt the system to the LOADER prompt.
2.
On the healthy node, check the system time:
show date
The date and time are given in GMT.
3.
At the LOADER prompt, check the date and time on the replacement node:
show date
The date and time are given in GMT.
4.
If necessary, set the date in GMT on the replacement node:
set date mm/dd/yyyy
5.
If necessary, set the time in GMT on the replacement node: set time hh:mm:ss
