FAS 2040 Configuration

Cameron1337 — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 05:19:19 GMT

Let me start by saying this is my first time to configure and setup a FAS of any kind, so please go easy. My old FAS2040 took a dump and I'm currently in the process of replacing it with a new, of the same model. I am currently attempting to re-assign my disks; I'm at the part where I need to interrupt the boot process with the CTRL-C command so I can enter maintenance mode. The issue I'm running into is that I can't interrupt the boot process with the CRTL-C command to enter maintenance mode. Any ideas why this would be happening or how to fix it?

not seen that before... so when you boot to OnTap you see the option that says Ctrl+C for the special boot menu?

what happens when you press that...does it just boot as normal?

I figured out my issue. I was using the FAS Load Automation Tool. As soon as I exited out of that and used Hyperterminal everything started to work fine.
