Configuration Guide
5–23
Preferring Units
In multiple-bus failover mode, individual units can be preferred to a specific
controller. For example, to prefer unit D102 to “this controller,” use the following
command:
SET D102 PREFERRED_PATH=THIS
RESTART commands must be issued to both controllers for this command to take
effect:
RESTART OTHER_CONTROLLER
RESTART THIS_CONTROLLER
NOTE: The controllers need to restart together for the preferred settings to take effect. The
RESTART this_controller command must be entered immediately after the RESTART
other_controller command.
Configuration Options
Changing the CLI Prompt
To change the CLI prompt, enter a 1- to 16- character string as the new prompt,
according to the following syntax:
SET THIS_CONTROLLER PROMPT = “NEW PROMPT”
If you are configuring dual-redundant controllers, also change the CLI prompt on the
“other controller.” Use the following syntax:
SET OTHER_CONTROLLER PROMPT = “NEW PROMPT”
NOTE: It is suggested that the prompt name reflect some information about the controllers. For
example, if the subsystem is the third one in a lab, name the top controller prompt, LAB3A and
the bottom controller, LAB3B.
Mirroring cache
To specify mirrored cache, use the following syntax:
SET THIS MIRRORED_CACHE
Adding Disk Drives
If you add new disk drives to the subsystem, the disk drives must be added to the
controllers’ list of known devices:
