4. Install the software on the server blade. The Quick Restore DVD is used for this purpose. See
“Recovering the X9720 Network Storage System” (page 138) for more information.
5. Set up fail over. For more information, see the HP s X9000 File Serving Software User Guide.
6. Enable high availability (automated failover) by running the following command on server 1:
# ibrix_server –m
7. Discover storage on the server blade:
ibrix_pv -a
8. To enable health monitoring on the server blade, first unregister the vendor storage:
ibrix_vs -d -n <vendor storage name>
Next, re-register the vendor storage. In the command, <sysName> is, for example, x710.
The <hostlist> is a range inside square brackets, such as X710s[2–4].
ibrix_vs -r -n <sysName> -t exds 172.16.1.1 -U exds -P <password>
-h <hostlist>
9. If you made any other customizations to other servers, you may need to apply them to the
newly installed server.

WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, follow these
recommendations:
• Use two people to lift, move, and install the HP X9700c component.
• Use an appropriate lifting device to lift, move, and install the HP X9700cx component.
• Always extend only one component at a time. A cabinet could become unstable if more than
one component is extended for any reason.

discharge (ESD). Use proper anti-static protection at all times:
• Keep the replacement component in the ESD bag until needed.
• Wear an ESD wrist strap grounded to an unpainted surface of the chassis.
• Touch an unpainted surface of the chassis before handling the component.
