Setting the chassis name of the new capacity block
The chassis name is typically set to the lowest available number. For example, if the system previously
had two capacity blocks, the new capacity block should be named 03. To set the chassis name,
complete these steps:
1. Run exds_stdiag to identify the chassis serial number of the new capacity block. In the
output, the serial number is the string YYYYYYYYYY:
ctlr P89A40E9SWY02E ExDS9100cc in YYYYYYYYYY slot 1
fw 0134.2010120901
boxes 3 disks 82 luns 11
batteries 2/OK cache OK
box 1 ExDS9100c sn SGA00302RB fw 1.56 temp OK
fans OK,OK,OK,OK power OK,OK
box 2 ExDS9100cx sn CN800100CP fw 2.66 temp OK
fans OK,OK power OK,OK,OK,OK
box 3 ExDS9100cx sn CN800100CP fw 2.66 temp OK
fans OK,OK power OK,OK,OK,OK
2. Run the following command, specifying the serial number YYYYYYYYYY. In the command, XX
is the desired name for the new capacity block:
hpacucli ctrl csn=YYYYYYYYYY modify chassisname=XX
When the chassis name is set, it appears in the exds_stdiag output, in the location specified
by XX in the following example:
ctlr P89A40E9SWY02E ExDS9100cc in XX/SGA00302RB slot 1
fw 0134.2010120901
boxes 3 disks 82 luns 11
batteries 2/OK cache OK
box 1 ExDS9100c sn SGA00302RB fw 1.56 temp OK
fans OK,OK,OK,OK power OK,OK
box 2 ExDS9100cx sn CN800100CP fw 2.66 temp OK
fans OK,OK power OK,OK,OK,OK
box 3 ExDS9100cx sn CN800100CP fw 2.66 temp OK
fans OK,OK power OK,OK,OK,OK
The chassis name also appears in the output from ibrix_vs -i, in the location specified by XX
in the following example:
6001438006E50B800506070830950007 X9720 Logical Unit OK CB: XX, LUN: 7:
