Configuring Storage Controller Settings
You can modify existing properties of a storage controller or configure the properties of a newly-installed
storage controller.
Configuring Storage Controller Settings Using CMC Web Interface
Make sure at least one storage controller is installed in the chassis.
Toconfigure the storage controller settings:
1. In the CMC Web interface, go to Chassis Overview → Storage → Controllers → Setup.
2. On the Controller Setup page, from the Controller drop-down menu, select the controller.
NOTE: Note the following:
• If the storage controllers are in fault-tolerant mode, and if both have the same firmware
version, then both the controllers are displayed as a single device in the drop-down menu.
For example, Shared PERC8 (Integrated 1)/ Shared PERC8 (Integrated 2). If the settings of
two controllers are different, the Settings Incompatible message is displayed. You can set
the properties of fault-tolerant controllers so that the properties are same on both the
controllers. Controllers in this mode cannot have separate properties.
• If a second storage controller with a different firmware version is installed, then the
controllers are displayed as two different components in the drop-down menu. For
example, Shared PERC8 (Integrated 1) and Shared PERC8 (Integrated 2).
The attribute values for the selected controller are updated in the table.
3. Type or select appropriate data, and then click Apply.
NOTE: For information about the attributes and other field descriptions, see Online Help.
The newly set properties are applied to the selected controllers and the Current Value field displays
the updated values for the attributes.
