Post-installation hardware setup for Microsoft
To prepare for software operation, complete the following steps:
1. Reconnect the SCSI cable from the redundant HBA to the MSA500 G2 storage system.
2. Cycle the server power.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each server.
4. Use the appropriate software for multipath operations.
Uninstalling Smart Array Multipath software
To remove Smart Array Multipath software, you must reconfigure SAN and reboot your server.
CAUTION:
Removing multipathing software from a multipath hardware configuration can cause data loss or
corruption. You must disconnect the server from the multipath storage, or eliminate all but one path to
that storage from the server, prior to removing Smart Array Multipath software.
To remove Smart Array Multipath software, complete the following steps:
1. Back up all user data on multipath storage.
2. If possible, disconnect the storage from the server. If it is necessary to maintain single-path
connection from the server to the storage (as in the case of servers that boot from a SAN device),
use the following guideline:
• If it is a one-host or one-storage array, HP recommends removing redundant cable
connections.
NOTE:
Ensure that you perform step 1 and step 2 before proceeding further.
3. Select Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
4. Select Smart Array Multipath software from the Remove Program drop-down list.
5. Click Remove, and follow the on-screen instructions.
The system displays a cautionary message advising of the potential data loss or corruption
that may result from removing this software.
6. Close the Add/Remove Programs window.
NOTE:
The LUNs may be inaccessible at this time.
7. Reboot the system.
Using silent installation
Silent installation can be run from the CD-ROM on your system, or from a network drive. Smart Array
Multipath software installs with little manual intervention. Silent installation is useful if you are installing
the software on a large number of servers that require software installation.
