When installing a system with expansion enclosures attached, the enclosure IDs might not agree with the physical cabling order. This issue occurs if the controller was previously attached to enclosures in a different configuration, and the controller attempts to preserve the previous enclosure IDs.
To correct this condition, ensure that both controllers are up, and perform a rescan using the
PowerVault Manager or the CLI. The rescan reorders the enclosures, but it can take up to two minutes to correct the enclosure IDs.
NOTE:Reordering expansion enclosure IDs only applies to dual-controller mode. If only one controller is available, due to a controller failure, a manual rescan does not reorder the expansion enclosure IDs.
To perform a rescan using the
PowerVault Manager:
Verify that both controllers are operating normally.
In the System tab, click
Action, and select
Rescan Disk Channels.
To perform a rescan using the CLI, type the following command:
rescan
