2 General precautions and safety guidelines
Required tools
The following items are required for some replacement procedures:
T-8 Torx screwdriver
T-10 Torx screwdriver
T-15 Torx screwdriver
Phillips screwdriver
Component replacement guidelines
CAUTION: Removing a component significantly changes the air flow within the enclosure. Components must be installed for the enclosure to cool properly. If a component fails, leave it in place in the enclosure until a new component is available to install.
Use the following guidelines when replacing a component in the HPE StoreOnce System or the HPE StoreOnce 5100 System Capacity Upgrade enclosure.
Before replacing a component, verify its status to ensure it needs replacement. To verify component status, check the status LEDs, event logs, product-specific logs, and management utilities for component health and location information. For more information on interpreting the LED displays, see Using LEDs to diagnose problems (page 23).
Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Keep parts in electrostatic containers until needed and ensure you are properly grounded when touching static-sensitive components.
HPE recommends waiting until periods of low storage system activity to replace a component.
When replacing components at the rear of the rack, cabling might obstruct access to the
component. Carefully move any cables out of the way to avoid loosening any connections. In particular, avoid cable damage that might be caused by:
Kinking or bending.
Disconnecting cables without capping. If uncapped, cable performance might be impaired
by contact with dust, metal or other surfaces.
Placing removed cables on the floor or other surfaces, where they might be walked on
or otherwise compressed.
Safety precautions
Retain and follow all product safety and operating instructions. Always refer to the documentation (printed or electronic) supplied with your product. If there is a conflict between this document and the product documentation, the product documentation takes precedence. Observe all warnings on the product and in the operating instructions to reduce the risk of bodily injury, electric shock, fire, and damage to the equipment.
General precautions
CAUTION: The installation and maintenance of products must be carried out by qualified personnel.

3 Identifying problems
POST messages and troubleshooting
The HPE StoreOnce Management Console (GUI and Command Line Interface) are the primary sources of troubleshooting information. However, they do not capture power-on self-test hardware-related issues. Always refer to the appropriate HPE ProLiant Gen9 Maintenance and Service Guide for Power-On Self-Test (POST) information. To view POST messages you will need a system console attached to the HPE StoreOnce System.
Using the StoreOnce GUI to identify a problem
As long as Email and SNMP have been set up correctly, all messages and alerts will be automatically forwarded to the appropriate recipients.
The following examples show how to use the StoreOnce GUI to identify a missing disk and the details associated with an event. See the HPE StoreOnce 3100, 3520, 3540 and 5100 System User Guide for more details.
Viewing the Events Log
Select Events. The alert is recorded in the Events window with Event Details at the bottom of the window.

Viewing the failed disk in the Hardware tree
The following example shows the Hardware tree expanded to show the disk failure in the expansion shelf.
Using the StoreOnce CLI to identify a problem
The following StoreOnce CLI commands can also be used to identify hardware problems and to navigate the hardware tree for details about a specific component.
hardware show problems
hardware show status <Dev-id>
The following example illustrates how to use the StoreOnce CLI commands to find out more about the disk problems we have identified on the StoreOnce GUI. See the HPE StoreOnce CLI Reference Guide for more details.
1. To display warnings for all hardware components run the StoreOnce CLI command:
hardware show problems
This will assist you in identifying the storage cluster and component that is causing a problem.
2. To drill down to the hardware component causing the problem run the StoreOnce CLI
command, hardware show status <Dev-id> iteratively, where <Dev-id> is the component with a DEGRADED status until the required component is displayed (it will have a status of FAILED or MISSSING). For example::
# hardware show status

4 Power on/off, firmware upgrades and other processes
This chapter describes:
Power on/off requirements
How to use the StoreOnce GUI or CLI to upgrade firmware.
How to check StoreOnce software revisions and obtain updates
How to use the StoreOnce CLI to run a confidencecheck report on the system
How to reset the system to the default HP password
Power on/off requirements
Many of the maintenance procedures described in this guide require the system to be powered off. Advise users of the Maintenance window when the HPE StoreOnce System will be unavailable and use the StoreOnce GUI or CLI to power off cleanly and then disconnect the system from the power supply.
To power off
StoreOnce GUI: Select Maintenance from the Navigator and click Shutdown.
StoreOnce CLI: Use the StoreOnce CLI command system shutdown.
HPE StoreOnce 5100 System only: Any storage enclosure attached to the head server is automatically powered off at the same time. Storage enclosures do not have separate power on/off buttons but should be unplugged from the power supply before carrying out maintenance activities.
To power on
HPE StoreOnce 5100 System only: Reconnect all storage enclosures to the power supply first. They are automatically powered on. Allow the power on to complete before powering on the head server; wait for the LEDs to show solid green..
Press the Power On button on the HPE StoreOnce System to power up the appliance.
IMPORTANT: Before carrying out maintenance activities read General precautions and safety
guidelines (page 16).
Upgrading BIOS or hardware firmware components
NOTE: It is a good idea to enable Remote Event Suppression mode when upgrading firmware and software. When enabled, Remote Event Suppression flags all outbound event messages to let the HPE Support team know that the system is undergoing some form of maintenance, such as network reconfiguration, that does not require a case to be raised with HPE Support. On the StoreOnce GUI select Events in the Navigator and go to the Settings tab. Or use the StoreOnce CLI command system enable remoteeventsuppression "reason", as described in the HPE StoreOnce System CLI Reference Guide.
The currently supported firmware component updates are embedded in the StoreOnce software. Therefore, to ensure that you are using the currently supported firmware component updates, always use the StoreOnce GUI or the StoreOnce CLI to check and update the BIOS and hardware firmware components. Do not upgrade BIOS or hardware firmware components individually using downloads from the HPE Support website.
Performing firmware maintenance from the StoreOnce GUI
1. Select Firmware from the Device Configuration menu item in the Navigator.
30 Power on/off, firmware upgrades and other processes
Page 31
2. Click Scan to perform a check on the currently installed firmware versions for all components associated to the selected node. This will populate the firmware tabs. This may take several minutes to run.
NOTE: The scan will fail if a firmware update is already in progress.
3. Look for components that have a Recommended Action of either Upgrade or Downgrade. After you have run Scan or Scan All, components will automatically be selected for upgrade or downgrade.
NOTE: When the firmware updates are initiated, the backup devices will be taken offline. Before performing this step, check that there are no outstanding backup jobs pending.
If there are only one or two, click in the appropriate check box to select them and click
Update Selected.
If there are many, click Update All. This will attempt to update all components that are
in the state where there is an update recommended; it will not try to update components that do not need an update.
The Status field will show which components are being updated and which updates have been completed.
4. When all updates are completed, a reboot may be required.
NOTE: In some cases, when the firmware update has completed, you will need to perform a cold boot. A pop-up message will appear on your GUI screen after updates are completed if a cold boot is required (a cold reboot is a physical power cycle of the appliance while waiting for 60 seconds before powering the appliance back up).
Performing firmware maintenance from the StoreOnce CLI
1. Run the StoreOnce CLI command to show the current status of firmware
# hardware show firmware <node|storage>
2. Check the Action column to see if any firmware needs upgrading.
IMPORTANT: Do not shutdown or reboot your system or any system component until
step 5. Special instructions may apply. See step 5 for details.
3. Before upgrading firmware, stop service sets and verify that they have stopped before proceeding.
serviceset stop all to stop service sets and ensure that no jobs are running
service show status to verify that all service sets have stopped. It may take up several
minutes for all service sets to stop.
# service show status Service Set 1 Status
------------- ------­Overall : Not Running
#
4. Use the hardware update firmware <node|storage> command, as required. For example, there may be instances where replacement hardware may need a firmware downgrade to bring it in line with the supported firmware version of the installed StoreOnce software on the system being maintained. Refer to the HPE StoreOnce CLI Reference Guide for more information about command parameters and syntax.
The command will be applied across all server components or across all storage components.
hardware update firmware <node|storage>
Upgrading BIOS or hardware firmware components 31
Page 32
5. After the firmware has updated, HPE recommends a cold reboot as follows:
Power down the node(s) using the StoreOnce CLI command:
system shutdown
After the system has completely shut down, wait at least one minute before powering on using the Power On button on the server(s).
NOTE: A cold reboot is required if the network card or storage controller card firmware has been updated. For other components, it is acceptable to reboot the system using the StoreOnce CLI command:
system reboot
Upgrading StoreOnce software
To establish which StoreOnce software version is installed, click on StoreOnce in the Navigator and look at the Software Revision under System Information.
Check HPE Support to find out if a later software release is available at www.hpe.com/support/
softwaredepot. If it is, download the software release and follow the instructions in the
accompanying Release Notes to install the software.
Running a system self test
The StoreOnce CLI command, system confidencecheck, runs a self-test on the system and produces a report of any problems. It is good practice to run this command before and after maintenance activities. Refer to the HPE StoreOnce System CLI Reference Guide for more information about using this command.
system/confidencechecker# runtest all
Confidence checks running. Checks will take maximum of 60 seconds. Please wait...

5 Replacing the system’s motherboard
This chapter highlights the information that is specific to HPE StoreOnce Systems. For detailed, step-by-step instructions on replacing the system’s motherboard, refer also to the appropriate ProLiant Maintenance and Service Guide.
IMPORTANT: If the status of the cache module on the failed motherboard is OK, transfer it to the replacement motherboard. When replacing the motherboard make sure that all items on the old motherboard are re-installed on the replacement motherboard, for example the SAS cables that connect to the internal disks in the server.
This chapter describes the following StoreOnce–specific activities:
If possible, obtain iLO4 license details and review the StoreOnce PCIe card configuration, DIMM configuration and SAS cabling before removing the motherboard. These components must be replaced in the same locations after replacing the motherboard.
After replacing the motherboard and restoring internal components to their correct locations, reconfigure BIOS settings and iLO 4 settings during boot up.
Review and update firmware, if required. See Upgrading BIOS or hardware
firmware (page 30).
After power up, re-write warranty serial numbers into BIOS.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, consult the safety information and user documentation provided with the server and system motherboard before replacing the motherboard.
Before replacing the motherboard—iLO4 licenses
All products are shipped with paper copies of the iLO4 licenses. If you no longer have these licenses and the board is still working for the iLO4 GUI connection via its management Ethernet port, make a note of the license before you remove the motherboard. (If it is not working, contact HPE Support.)
To identify the Activation key:
1. Log on to the iLO4 GUI.
2. Select the Administration Tab.
3. Select Licensing and make a note of the Activation Key.
Before replacing the motherboard—component configuration
Before replacing the motherboard make a note of PCIe slot allocation and SAS cabling.
HPE StoreOnce 3100 System: Only one PCIe slot is used, slot 1 for the RAID controller card.
HPE StoreOnce 3500 Series and HPE StoreOnce 5100 System: This system supports Optional Hardware. Slots 2 and 3 are always used for the SAS expander card and the RAID controller card, respectively, but the remaining four slots may be configured with 10GbE network and/or Fibre Channel cards. Make a note of the configuration and be sure to re-install the cards in the exact same slots.
HPE StoreOnce 5100 System only: If Capacity Upgrade Kits are connected, make a note of the first in the daisy chain sequence. The cabling must be reconnected from the SAS controller card to the correct Capacity Upgrade Kit for the server.
34 Replacing the system’s motherboard
Page 35
NOTE: For information about replacing RAID cards and internal SAS cabling, refer to Replacing
the RAID controller and components (page 41). For information about DIMM locations see DIMM locations (page 35).
Motherboard spares part number and System Maintenance switch
The motherboard for the HPE StoreOnce 3100 System, HPE StoreOnce 3500 and 5100 System is the standard DL360/DL380 Gen9 motherboard, spares part number 775400-001.
See the DL360p Gen 9 Maintenance and Service Guide and DL380p Gen 9 Maintenance and Service Guide for more information about replacing the motherboard.
IMPORTANT: There is a default boot mode setting on the system maintenance switch on the motherboard. This should be set to UEFI and not be Legacy mode enabled (even though the BIOS setting will be Legacy Mode).
The following drawing shows a ProLiant DL380 motherboard; the location of the System Maintenance switch is the same for the ProLiant DL360 motherboard. The default value for all positions on the System Maintenance switch is OFF; this is correct for HPE StoreOnce systems.

6 Replacing the p1224 RAID controller and components
Overview
All HPE StoreOnce Systems described within this guide use the p1224 RAID controller fitted with a RAID cache module and SuperCapacitor. Each model has a single RAID controller.
The RAID cache module is seated on the RAID card and has one port to connect to the SuperCapacitor (which is located in the center of the unit, clipped to the floor of the chassis behind the disk cage).
HPE StoreOnce 3500 Series and HPE StoreOnce 5100 System also have a SAS Expander card.
NOTE: The locations of RAID cards and the internal SAS cabling configuration are also shown on the StoreOnce hood label inside the server.
Part numbers
Replacement spares part numbers for the p1224 card, SuperCapacitor module and SAS expander card are as follows:
HP p1224 RAID controller with 1GB cache module: 842475-001 (minimum firmware revision = 2.50)
SuperCapacitor: 660093-001
SAS expander card (not used with HPE StoreOnce 3100 System): 761879-001
For information about the part numbers for replacement internal SAS cables, see Internal SAS

Identifying a RAID controller failure
HPE StoreOnce 3100, 3520 and 3540 Systems boot from the p1224 RAID controller that is also connected to the customer data storage disks.
HPE StoreOnce 5100 Systems boot from the onboard smart array controller which is connected to the two OS disk drives in the rear of the server.
If a catastrophic failure of the boot RAID controller occurs, the system will not boot. This may only be diagnosed from the server POST messages where the controller may report an error or a lockup code. In these cases contact HPE Support and provide information about the reported error code.
Other forms of non-catastrophic RAID controller failure will be reported in the Event Log and the Hardware pages on the StoreOnce GUI.
NOTE: If RAID fails and the HPE StoreOnce System is still functioning, you can also get information, including license keys, by generating a Support ticket.
Identifying a RAID controller failure 43

Replacing the RAID components
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, consult the safety information and user documentation provided with the server and RAID component before replacing it.
IMPORTANT: When replacing the p1224 controller or SAS expander card be sure to always replace the card into the same slot from which it was removed. Make sure the card is connected to the SuperCapacitor module and to the internal SAS data storage. On an HPE StoreOnce 5100 System, if the system has been expanded be sure to also connect the card to the external SAS storage.
p1224 RAID controller
The p1224 RAID controller card is located in:
HPE StoreOnce 3100 System: PCIe slot 1 and is connected to the backplane.
HPE StoreOnce 3500 Series and HPE StoreOnce 5100 System: PCIe slot 3 and is connected
to the SAS expander card in slot 2 and to the backplane. In the HPE StoreOnce 5100 System it is also connected to any external SAS storage.

The RAID cache module and SuperCapacitor
There is one SuperCapacitor and cache module for each RAID Controller. The RAID cache module is slotted onto the RAID card; the SuperCapacitor is located in the center of the unit, clipped to the floor of the chassis behind the disk cage.
These items ensure cache contents are maintained after a loss of power. The LEDs on the cache module flash when the SuperCapacitor is disconnected and POST error messages provide more information.
44 Replacing the p1224 RAID controller and components
Page 45
NOTE: The recommendation is to replace both the SuperCapacitor and RAID cache module at the same time, regardless of which element has failed.
NOTE: Never move cache modules from one RAID controller to another within or between systems.
If the SuperCapacitor is disconnected on the RAID card in the HPE StoreOnce System, the system will not boot. If boot fails, it is a good idea to check that the SuperCapacitor is seated correctly.
If the SuperCapacitor or cache module has failed, the system may still boot with error messages and it will run more slowly. Remove and dispose of the old module, and replace it with the new one. Check that the cable is connected correctly to the SuperCapacitor.

HPE SAS expander card (HPE StoreOnce 5100 System and HPE StoreOnce 3500 Series)
If no disks are showing on the Storage-Shelves page of the StoreOnce GUI, there may be a problem with the HPE SAS expander card.
The part number for a replacement card is: 761879-001. It must be installed in PCIe slot 2.
Mini-SAS cables connect the RAID controller card to the SAS expander card, and the SAS expander card to the hard disk drive backplane.
NOTE: Tuck the mini-SAS cables to be routed to the backplane into the side of the chassis. See Figures 17 and 18.
Replacement procedure
The following example describes how to replace the p1224 card. The general procedure is the same to access the SAS expander card or the SuperCapacitor cache module.

RAID configuration
All HPE StoreOnce Systems are supplied with their base storage already configured for use.
Table 17 RAID configuration
Notes
Number of disks (and location)
HP StoreOnce model
This is a RAID 5 system; operating system and backup data are stored on the same RAID Set.
4 x 2 TBHPE StoreOnce 3100
System
This allows for a single drive failure without loss of either the backup data or OS partitions.
Both systems have two RAID 6 (4+2) sets. The basic capacity is capped at 50% of the available usable capacity. A software license is required to use the full capacity. No additional hardware is required.
3520 = 12 x 2 TB
3540 =12 x 4 TB
HPE StoreOnce 3500 Series
No further enclosures may be added.
The two OS disks in the rear disk bays are dedicated for use by the operating system and are in a mirrored configuration, such that one disk can be lost without the system failing.
2 x 900 GB for the OS in the rear of the server unit
HPE StoreOnce 5100 System
The 12 storage disks in the front disk bays are in a RAID 6 (9+2 + 1 hotspare) set, such that two disks can be lost without loss of backup data. The hot spare disk is in bay 12.
Plus 12 x 4 TB in front disk bays
Up to five additional enclosures may be added to increase the backup data capacity, also RAID 6 (9+2 + 1 hotspare).
IMPORTANT: It is very important that failed disks are replaced promptly.
In order to ensure that you are alerted to disk failures ensure that either or both of SNMP traps and email alerts are configured so that in the event of a disk failure you are notified immediately and can take action to replace the disks.
48 Disk replacement
Page 49
Note that In the case of the
HPE StoreOnce 5100 System: All enclosures of storage must be working for the system to operate; if any RAIDset fails on any one enclosure due to exceeding the maximum amount of failed disks then ALL data is lost.
HPE StoreOnce 3500 Series: All 12 disks are used for data storage with or without the license to expand the storage capacity to 100%.
HPE StoreOnce 3100 System: If more than one disk fails then the data and operating system are lost and a “Quick Restore” of the appliance OS will be required before the unit can be used again.
Hot spare disk and LEDs on the HPE StoreOnce 5100 System
Both the HPE StoreOnce 5100 System and any Capacity Upgrade enclosures have a hot spare disk in bay 12. If one disk fails in the RAIDset, the hot spare disk automatically takes it place until the failed disk is replaced. The behavior of the LEDs on the hot spare disk is as follows:
Head server: The LED is off on the hot spare disk until it becomes active due to the failure of another disk in the RAID set. It is flickering green when in use.
Capacity Upgrade enclosure: The LED is solid green on the hot spare disk until it becomes active due to the failure of another disk in the RAID set. It is flashing green when in use.
Ordering the correct replacement disk for a failed disk
IMPORTANT: HPE strongly recommends replacing a failed disk with a fresh disk from the factory. Do not substitute a disk from another RAID set.
HPE StoreOnce 5100 System: In the event of a disk failure, it is important to identify whether the disk is in one of the two OS disk bays or one of the storage disk bays, because different disks are used in the two locations and the carriers are different.
Always quote the serial number and product number for the enclosure that contains the failed disk so that support can replace the correct part.

Replacing a hot-plug hard disk
WARNING! It is important to replace a failed or predictive failed disks as soon as possible. Multiple disk failures within the same array will result in complete data loss.
Note that ALL enclosures of storage must be working for the system to operate; if the RAID fails on any one array due to exceeding the maximum amount of failed disks in a pool then ALL data is lost. In the case of the HPE StoreOnce 3100 System, if more than one disk fails then the data and operating system are lost and a “Quick Restore” of the appliance OS will be required before the unit can be used again.
Procedure 1
1. Identify the disk that has failed. If you have configured recipients for SNMP traps or email alerts, they will be notified of a disk failure. You can also use the GUI as follows:
Go to the appropriate Hardware page to get the details for the device: Hardware —
Storage Clusters — Storage Cluster 1 — Drive Enclosures — Drives.
You can use the Beacon LED On button on this page to turn the LED on the front of
the disk on, which makes it easier to identify and replace. The disk fault LED (amber) will also be illuminated on the disk carrier.
50 Disk replacement
Page 51
2. Remove the front bezel from the HPE StoreOnce System. Turn the key (1) to unlock the security bezel and pull it out (2) and away (3) from the front of the appliance, using the handle (4). (The example shows an HPE StoreOnce 5100 System.
Figure 26 Removing the front bezel
3. Remove the disk.
Press the hard disk carrier button (1) to release the ejector lever.
Pull out the disk carrier handle and slide the hard drive assembly (2) out of the drive
bay. Be sure to support the drive when pulling it out of the cage.
Figure 27 Removing the hard drive
4. Replace the failed disk with the new disk.
Push the hard drive assembly (1) into the drive bay until it stops and press the HDD carrier latch (2) inward until it clicks.

5. Replace the front bezel.
6. Log in to the GUI and look at the Hardware — Storage Clusters — Storage Cluster 1 — Drive Enclosures — Drives page. While the RAID rebuilds, the drive Status will be DEGRADED and appropriate messages are displayed against it.
NOTE: It may take several minutes for the status to report that the disk replacement has completed successfully and that the new disk is being rebuilt as part of the RAID group. During this time several alerts will be generated reflecting the status of the physical disks and the logical storage system.
7. Verify the firmware and upgrade, if necessary, as described in Upgrading BIOS or hardware
firmware (page 30)
If multiple disks fail and a RAIDset is broken
In the event of multiple disk failures on a single enclosure all backup data will be lost so it is very important that if disk failures do occur they are dealt with swiftly and disks are replaced. This section explains how to rebuild your storage in the event of a complete data loss. This should be done under the guidance of HPE Support.
After the failed disks have been replaced it will be necessary to remove the old filesystem configuration and rebuild a new one as follows:
1. Use the following StoreOnce CLI to remove all configured storage on the appliance (except that used by the operating system):
hardware delete storage all
2. This will clean up all filesystem configuration and delete logical drives (LUNs) on all storage devices.
WARNING! This command will completely remove all configured storage, and will run at any time even if the storage is healthy.
52 Disk replacement
Page 53
3. After the delete command has completed rebuild the storage system using the following StoreOnce CLI commands to discover and add storage to the system
hardware discover storage
Monitor the status of the LUN creation process using the StoreOnce CLI command:
hardware show storage status
Look for the Formatted and Discovered information under Status. When all the storage has been discovered, add it to the system.
hardware add storage
This will configure both the storage in the appliance (base storage) and any attached expansion shelves. Licenses must be present for all attached storage before the command will complete successfully. If insufficient licenses are available, no storage will be configured.
If multiple disks fail and a RAIDset is broken 53

8 Replacing Optional Hardware
NOTE: This chapter is not applicable to the HPE StoreOnce 3100 System because it does not support Optional Hardware.
The HPE StoreOnce 3500 Series and HPE StoreOnce 5100 System support the addition of 10GbE Network cards and Fibre Channel cards. The StoreOnce CLI and GUI will report any errors to the user.
Error messages
The following table details messages that indicate problems with the Optional Hardware. Other error messages may be displayed that relate to licensing issues. See the HPE StoreOnce 10GbE Network and Fibre Channel Card Installation and Configuration Guide for more details.

Replacing Optional Hardware cards
NOTE: Providing the replacement card is of the same type and is installed in the same slot, no activation or licensing is required.
Follow the instructions in the HPE StoreOnce 10GbE Network and Fibre Channel Card Installation and Configuration Guide to install the replacement card. The following additional guidelines apply to the replacement procedure:
Replace a 10GbE-T card with another 10GbE-T card, a 10GbE SFP card with another 10GbE SFP card and an 8Gb FC card with another 8Gb FC card.
Replace the card in the same slot from which the failed card was removed.
Fibre Channel card considerations
StoreOnce Device configuration
For those products that have Fibre Channel cards, the following VTL and StoreOnce Catalyst device configuration notes apply:
If using only VTL over Fibre Channel, no further configuration is required when replacing the Fibre Channel card.
If using StoreOnce Catalyst over Fibre Channel there are replacement considerations. The World Wide Port Name (WWPN) and World Wide Node Name (WWNN) of the StoreOnce Catalyst over Fibre Channel device presented on a StoreOnce Fibre Channel port currently uses the WWPN / WWNN of the FC card. StoreOnce generated WWPNs / WWNNs are not used. Replacing the FC card will result in a new Catalyst over Fibre Channel WWPN / WWNN. After replacing a FC card the StoreOnce user will need to re-zone their clients with the new WWPN / WWNN. The replaced port will not be seen by clients until this re-zoning is performed.
Removing and replacing a Fibre Channel or 10GbE SFP
The SFP is on the rear of the server and serves as the port for connecting to the customer’s FC SAN or 10GbE network. Make sure you have the correct SFP for the connection type.
WARNING! When the system is on, do not stare at the fibers. Doing so could damage your eyes.
1. Disconnect the FC or 10GbE cable and lift the retaining clip to carefully slide the SFP out of the enclosure.
2. Remove the replacement SFP module from its protective packaging.
CAUTION: When handling the SFP, do not touch the gold contact leads to prevent damage.
3. Carefully slide the replacement SFP into the enclosure until fully seated, close the retaining clip to secure it in place.
4. Place the failed SFP into the packaging for return to HPE.
5. Reconnect the FC or 10GbE network cable to the SFP and verify that the link status LED is solid green.

Page 69
9. After installation, the utility will place a shortcut in HP System Tools in the Programs start menu folder. To make your drive key bootable and copy the ISO image to it:
Place your HP USB drive key (minimum size 4 GB flash stick) in an available USB port.
Select the HP USB Key Utility shortcut in the HP System Tools folder.
Complete each step presented by the application.
10. Once complete safely remove the USB stick from the Windows PC.
Delete storage
Before running QR it is advisable to remove all configured storage on the appliance. If you do not do this, you may get error messages during QR, reporting the presence of Alien LUNs.
1. Use the following StoreOnce CLI to remove all configured storage on the appliance (except that used by the operating system):
hardware delete storage all
2. This will clean up all filesystem configuration and delete logical drives (LUNs) on all storage devices.
Boot the appliance and install the StoreOnce software
Make sure that power, network, keyboard and monitor, and all expansion enclosures are attached to the StoreOnce appliance, then insert the QR USB stick into a USB port and power on the system.
After the system powers up and completes self-tests it will boot from the USB key and launch the Linux installation process.
NOTE: An error will be displayed: [Firmware Bug]: the BIOS has corrupted hw-PMU resources (MSR 38d is 330). This error does not have any affect on the StoreOnce solution
and is an expected output during QR. No action needs to be taken by customer or support engineer.
After a few seconds a boot splash screen will appear offering the choice of Restore (R) or Exit (E). Press R to continue to the installation process.
A warning will now be displayed indicating that all data will be lost after entering “yes”. THIS IS THE LAST CHANCE TO EXIT THE INSTALL PROCESS WITHOUT DATA LOSS.
Enter “yes” to continue.
The installation process will now continue and will:
1. Delete the existing logical storage configuration on the appliance head disks.
2. Create a new logical storage partition; depending on the appliance type this may be a pair
of mirrored disks or a LUN stripe across all disks in the appliance.
3. Install the Operating System and appliance software on the system.
4. After installation completes you will be prompted to remove the USB stick and reboot. Press
a key to reboot the system.
5. During the reboot process, the system will perform an install process and return to the login prompt. During this sequence, you may need to answer questions presented on the console screen.
Performing a configuration restore
This process is normally carried out after a quick restore (QR) or if a replacement appliance has been received. It restores the appliance to the same state as it was when the configuration file was created. It is important that there are no configured backup target devices on the appliance.
Delete storage 69
Page 70
IMPORTANT: During this process you may be prompted to provide the Cluster ID. The Cluster ID is the same as the System ID that can be found on the Device Management page of the StoreOnce Management Console. Its value is assigned in the factory set up process and is a 12–character string in the format HP<SerialNumber of Appliance>.
This process requires the latest configuration files that should have been saved and copied locally to the local system. You will require the following files:
<config_filename>.zip
<config_filename>.txt
<keystore_filename>.kms (if keystores have been saved for Security features)
1. Check the Cluster ID against the value shown in the configuration text file,
<config_filename>.txt, using the StoreOnce CLI command:
system show config
2. If necessary reset the Cluster ID of the cluster to the ID of the original appliance, the cluster ID is shown in the configuration text file, run the command:
system set cluster <cluster_id>
This step may not be necessary if there has been no replacement hardware or if the serial number of the original appliance has been copied to the BIOS settings of the replacement appliance.
IMPORTANT: You can only restore the configuration file to an appliance that has the same cluster ID as the one from which the configuration was taken.
3. Using the latest <config_filename>.txt file, manually apply all of the settings within this configuration text file using the StoreOnce CLI commands and instructions exactly as shown. This will ensure that the customer configuration is restored to its previous configuration. It is very important that this is done manually before attempting to restore the device settings automatically.
NOTE: If the product has additional storage connected, please ensure Capacity Upgrade Kit licenses are applied.
4. Reconfigure the storage for the appliance using the commands:
hardware discover storage
hardware add storage
5. Monitor the expansion using the following command:
system show status
This command will return either of the following after an add command has been sent:
Adding X,XXXGB...
Formatted XXGB, which means that the storage and file system has been configured
and is ready for use. Parity initialization may still be in progress.
The following output is an example; the values shown may not match your appliance-specific values.
# system show status
Status
-----­Formatted 15,070.76GB
Service Sets Status Notes
70 The QR ISO image
Page 71
------------ ------ ----­Set 1 Running
NOTE: The addition of storage will take a minimum of two hours to complete. You will not be able to complete the next steps until storage is formatted.
6. Using an SFTP client copy the saved configuration zip file to the config folder on the
appliance.
Using Linux
sftp Admin@<IP_address>
cd config
put <config_filename>.zip
exit sftp
Using a Windows sftp client
Ensure the File Protocol is set to SFTP, not SCP.
Login as Admin.
Copy <config_filename>.zip to config.
7. Use the following StoreOnce CLI command to check that the file has been uploaded:
config show list
8. Run the StoreOnce CLI command:
config restore devices <config_filename>
This will restore device settings for the appliance.
9. After configuration recovery backups can be configured and replication mappings re-established in order to reverse replicate date back to the appliance (see replication information in the user guide)
