Fault symptom:
The VNX uniied series can only perform partial File initialization once when using VIA. If the configuration fails or the VIA window is closed halfway, VIA cannot scan the storage again.
Solution:
1. Use Putty and other software to log on to CS0 through the string line. Note that the string line here must be a random string line. Because the CS interface is very narrow, other string lines cannot be inserted. Serial port speed 19200
A) log on to CS0 via serial port. Username: root Password: nasadmin
Note: If the storage is configured with dual CS, you can disable CS1, unplug the cable, and then add CS1 after configuring, or set the dual-CS configuration as follows.
B) record the MAC address of eth3 of CS0 and CS1 from the tags on the CS front panel, or run the following command to view the MAC address and record the IP address of eth3:
#/Sbin/ifconfig eth3
2. Run the following command:
#/Nasmcd/sbin/clariion_mgmt-info
If:
Error 12: Not configured
It indicates that the proxy ARP is not configured. You can directly jump to step 3. If the Proxy ARP has been configured, run the following command to restore the SP ip address to the factory settings:
#/Nasmcd/sbin/clariion_mgmt-stop

3. Run the following command to check whether the "S95cable_check" file exists in/etc/rc3.d:
# Cd/etc/rc3.d
# Ls-la S95cable_check
4. If the file exists, you can directly jump to the next step. If the file does not exist and has not been backed up before, you need to extract the file from the NAS disc of the corresponding version and transmit the file to the storage through software such as WinSCP.
The file path on the CD is as follows:
Emcnas7.1.47.5 _ DVD. isoEMC
The attachment contains files required by version 7.1.47.5, which can be extracted directly.
5. Use a network cable to connect to eth3 and use WinSCP to log on to the eth3 ip address. Copy the file to the/etc/rc3.d/directory.
6. Change file permissions
# Chmod 755 S95cable_check
7. Delete temporary files
# Rm-rf/tmp/. factory *
# Fm-rf/tmp/factory *
8. Run the vi command to modify the hosts file and delete the host name of CS0.
# Vi/etc/hosts
Delete the host name and ip address fields related to CS0. For dual-CS configuration, delete the host name and ip address fields on CS1.
9. For single-CS configuration, skip to step 1. For dual-CS configuration, perform the following steps:
A) log on to CS1 through SSH from CS0
# Ssh 128.221.252.101
B) stop the NAS service on CS1
#/Sbin/service nas stop
C) log out of CS1 SSH and stop the NAS service on CS0.
#/Sbin/service nas stop
D) log on to the root account of CS1 through a serial port and perform the following operations:
A. Copy the S95cable_check file to/etc/rc3.d (this operation requires logging on to eth3 of CS1 with WinSCP)
B. Delete the host name and IP address of CS1 in the/etc/hosts file.
C. Delete the/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth3 configuration file
D. Restart CS1 until the following information is displayed:
Waiting for VNX Installation Assistant to continue ....
10. Delete the/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth3 configuration file on CS0
11. Restart CS0 until CS0 displays the following information:
Waiting for VNX Installation Assistant to continue ....
12. Start VIA to initialize VNX uniied
