Adding or Removing a RAID Controller
To add or remove one of the RAID controllers, choose Storage | RAID System
| Controller | Add/Remove . The window that appears depends on which of the
situations described below applies. Each different Add/Remove One RAID
Controller window lists the steps to follow for the particular situation:
The situations for which this window is used are as follows:
• You need to remove the RAID controller when the system status is DAC
(both controllers functioning OK). In this case, first shut down the node
containing the controller you want to remove. Wait until the node shuts
down, and the system status shown on the NewsShare NAS software is
Degraded. Re-select
Storage | RAID System | Controller | Add/Remove ,
and follow the steps described on the Add/Remove window. The situation
now is the same as the one described directly below.
• The system status shown on the NewsShare NAS software is Degraded.
First, disable the controller. Then follow the steps described on the
Add/Remove window.
• The RAID controller is disabled and the system shown on the NewsShare
NAS software is Degraded. Follow the steps described on the Add/Remove
window.
• To upgrade from one node to two nodes, first execute the Node Mode
Upgrade function. Reboot the NewsShare NAS software, and select Storage
| RAID System | Controller | Add/Remove . Enable the controller on the
new node, and power up the new node.
