SANtricity 11.8 Commands
Reset iSCSI IP address
The reset iscsiIpAddress
command resets the IP address of the remote storage system to re-establish connection with the local storage system.
Supported Series
This command applies to any individual storage system, with some restrictions.
If you are running the command on the HB2100/HB2200/HB2300, or HB5100/HB5200 series, the client type must be set to |
Roles
To execute this command on an HB2100/HB2200/HB2300, or HB5100/HB5200 storage system, you must have the Storage Admin role.
Context
You can use this command to notify the local storage system that the iSCSI IP address of the remote storage system has changed and needs to be updated.
When establishing an asynchronous mirroring relationship with an iSCSI connection, both the local and the remote storage systems store a record of the IP address of the remote storage system in the asynchronous mirroring configuration. If the IP address of an iSCSI port changes, the remote storage system that is attempting to use that port encounters a communication error.
The storage system with the changed IP address sends a message to each remote storage system associated with the asynchronous mirror groups that are configured to mirror over an iSCSI connection. Storage systems that receive this message automatically update their remote-target IP address.
If the storage system with the changed IP address is unable to send its inter-controller message to a remote storage system, the system sends you an alert of the connectivity issue. Use the reset
command to re-establish connection with the local storage system.
Syntax
