6.0 HP X9320 Network Storage System Administrator Guide (AW542-96009, December 2011)

Preliminary configuration
The following configuration steps are required when setting up integrated power sources:
• If you plan to implement automated failover, ensure that the management console has LAN
access to the power sources.
• Install the environment and any drivers and utilities, as specified by the vendor documentation.
If you plan to protect access to the power sources, set up the UID and password to be used.
Identifying power sources
All power sources must be identified to the configuration database before they can be used. To
identify an integrated power source, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -a -t {ipmi|openipmi|openipmi2|ilo}
-h HOSTNAME -I IPADDR -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD
For example, to identify an iLO power source at IP address 192.168.3.170 for node ss01:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -a -t ilo -h ss01 -I 192.168.3.170
-u Administrator -p password
Updating the configuration database with power source changes
If you change IP address or password for a power source, you must update the configuration
database with the changes. To do this, use the following command. The user name and password
options are needed only for remotely managed power sources. Include the -s option to have the
management console skip BMC.
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -m [-I IPADDR] [-u USERNAME] [-p PASSWORD]
[-s] -h POWERSRCLIST
The following command changes the IP address for power source ps1:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -m -I 192.168.3.153 -h ps1
Dissociating a file serving node from a power source
You can dissociate a file serving node from an integrated power source by dissociating it from
slot 1 (its default association) on the power source. Use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_hostpower -d -s POWERSOURCE -h HOSTNAME
Deleting power sources from the configuration database
To conserve storage, delete power sources that are no longer in use from the configuration database.
If you are deleting multiple power sources, use commas to separate them.
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_powersrc -d -h POWERSRCLIST
Turning automated failover on and off
Automated failover is turned off by default. When automated failover is turned on, the management
console starts monitoring heartbeat messages from file serving nodes. You can turn automated
failover on and off for all file serving nodes or for selected nodes.
To turn on automated failover, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_server -m [-h SERVERNAME]
To turn off automated failover, include the -U option:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_server -m -U [-h SERVERNAME]
To turn automated failover on or off for a single file serving node, include the -h SERVERNAME
option.
Manually failing over a file serving node
To set up a cluster for manual failover, first identify standby pairs for the cluster nodes, as described
in “Configuring standby pairs” (page 29).
