With the second controller successfully installed, make the following settings:
• Redundancy Type – Set to Active-Active or Active-Standby.
See “Making Subsystem Settings” on page 101.
• LUN Affinity – If you choose Active-Active redundancy.
See “Making Controller Settings” on page 113
Note
The Vess subsystem boots its RAID controllers sequentially. With a second
controller installed, your subsystem takes about a minute longer to boot. This
condition is normal.
