13. In the K2Config application, add and configure the replacement server. Refer to the installation
chapter for the level of your system earlier in this manual for specific procedures, with the
following special instructions:
a) Add the server to the K2 SAN, using the Add Device button.
b) Configure the replacement server so that its settings are all the same as they were on the faulty
server.
• On the Define Server Roles page, assign the same roles.
• On the Network Configuration page, verify the same network settings for the FTP network.
• If the server hosts an iSCSI interface adapter, on the iSCSI Bridge Server Configuration
page, verify the same settings.
c) After completing the configuration, restart the machine to put changes into effect.
14. If the server hosts an iSCSI interface adapter, in the K2 System Configuration application, add
the clients that you removed in step 5 earlier in this procedure, with the following special
instructions:
a) Add the client with the highest iSCSI bandwidth first.
b) On each client, configure iSCSI bandwidth settings so they are the same as they were before.
15. Power up all K2 clients and other iSCSI clients and test media access.
The replacing a server procedure is complete.

Prerequisites are as follows:
• The K2 SAN must be at K2 system software version 3.2.7 or higher before you begin this
procedure.
• K2 system software version must be the same on all K2 Media Servers, before and after you
replace the iSCSI interface adapter or adapters.
• If the K2 Media Server has two single-port adapters and the replacement adapter is a dual port
adapter, you must remove both single-port adapters, even though only one adapter is faulty, and
replace them with the dual-port adapter.
1. In the K2Config application, for the K2 Media Server with the adapter or adapters you are
replacing, open the iSCSI bridge page and identify the ports on the adapter or adapters.
2. For the ports on the adapter or adapters you are replacing, make a note of the IP addresses and
subnet mask settings.
Later in this procedure you must assign these same settings to ports on the replacement adapter.
3. Close the K2Config application.
4. Take the clients of the K2 SAN offline and take all K2 Media Servers out of service.
5. If you are replacing two single-port adapters with a dual-port adapter, uninstall K2 system
software from the K2 Media Server.
