Force Enable Module
Overview
When there is an isolated component from the storage system caused by an error, etc., this function forces the component to be enabled without replacing it (called "force enable" hereinafter).
This function is performed in a situation such as when there is a normal component which has been affected by a failed component and isolated from the storage system.

Force enable can be performed only on one component at a time.
- Not all components can be forcibly enabled by using this function. Refer to the following tables for the availability of force enable for each part.
When installing the component that cannot be forcibly enabled in the storage system, use the Hot Maintenance or the [Hot Preventive Maintenance] function.
- This function cannot be used under the following conditions:
The selected drive is not in the "Broken" or "Not Supported" state
A component (other than a drive) whose state is other than "Error" is selected
A CM, an IOM, or a SAS cable is selected on a 1CM model
A CA is selected from the [Internal Parts] tab in the [Controller Module Detail] screen for the ETERNUS DX60 S5
Perform the force enable of the NAS Engine by following the instructions given by a maintenance engineer.
To perform a force enable of the CA for the ETERNUS DX60 S5 with a CM-FC (CM with direct mount CA), use the force enable function for the CM that includes the CA.

Operating Procedures
Select the component to perform the force enable on, and click [Force Enable] in [Action].
→ A confirmation screen appears.
Click the [OK] button.
→ The force enable starts.
Click the [Done] button to return to the screen when the target component was selected in Step 1.
NoteWhen forcibly enabling a NAS-CA or a NAS-CA port, access to the network may not be available just after mounting the components. Connect to the network after waiting approximately 10 minutes.
