File Servers and Clusters
If you have marked a host as a file server and you move it into or out of a cluster, you must remove
the file server data from the host and then re-mark it as a file server. To remove the file server data
from the host and re-mark it as a file server:
1. Select Reports > Storage Essentials > Data Collection > FileSystem Viewer Data in HP Systems
Insight Manager.
2. Verify that the File Servers tab is displayed.
3. Select the file servers you want to remove, and then click Delete.
4. Click Add File Server.
5. Click the check boxes for the hosts that you would like to mark as file servers.
6. Click OK.
The hosts are marked as file servers, and you are returned to the File Servers tab.
7. After removing the file server data from the host and then re-marking it as a file server, you must
rescan the cluster member nodes and the cluster nodes. If a rescan is not completed, incorrect
data may be displayed.
Clustering in System Manager
System Manager has been enhanced to seamlessly support clusters in all areas. You can view
connectivity information from all levels on a single canvas — from applications running on clusters,
to the storage array spindles that share volumes for all the nodes of a cluster.
For detailed information about System Manager, see ”Viewing Element Topology and Properties
on page 354.
The following figure shows how clusters are displayed in System Manager. Note that the tree
nodes on the List tab reflect the structure of the clusters.
