without rebooting

EMC VNX series or CLARiiON storage systems
Use of this procedure requires NAVICLI installed on the host system.
1. Remove the IO slice that contains the defective QLogic adapter.
2. Replace the defective adapter with a new adapter of same Stratus
part number (that is, U525 or U526). The adapter should be
inserted into the same PCI slot from which the defective adapter
was removed. (Inserting the replacement adapter into another
PCI slot requires a driver to be loaded for the adapter.)
3. Reinsert IO slice with the new adapter, and reconnect all cables.
4. Power up the ftServer, and let the IO Slice come online and
duplex, as shown in the Stratus ftServer Management tool.
5. Change the FC switch zoning to add the WWN of the replaced
adapter to the appropriate zones.
6. Restart the Unisphere/Navisphere Agent using the Service
Control Manager applet.
7. In the Unisphere/Navisphere Manager, use connectivity status to
verify the new adapter is present and logged in. Alternately, use
the port ‘list’ command in navicli.
8. Using navicli, connect the adapter to the storage group with the
following command:
navicli –h <Clariion IP Addr> storagegroup –connecthost
–host
<host-name> -gname <Storage-group-name>
This command will give the user the following prompt:
Connect host <host-name>to storage group
<Storage-group-name> (y/n)?
