Move controllers
Hello to all!
I have two storage dell md 3220 and dell md 3200.
one with 1 controller (controller 0)
second with 2 controller ( controller 0 and 1).
When I move controller 1 from second storage to first, the first storage not activate new (controller 1).
Firmware are same in both storages.
Has anyone step-by-step manual for move controllers?

Hello B.kulish,
In your MD that has only controller 0 did you have controller 1 in there when you purchased the system or no? The reason that I ask this is that based on what you are getting is that your MD with the single controller is in Simplex Mode and in order to add a second controller you need to put it into Dueplex Mode. Here is the link where you can find the Guide for “Upgrade Your MD Storage Arrays From Simplex to Duplex Mode” http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/product/powervault-md3200/manuals
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
