Proble configuring FAS 2050 with two controllers

[dan123]

Hi.

How can i configure a FAS 2050 with two controllers?

I've got an amber led on the second controller and i'm not able to connect via console (serial port) on it.

The first controller works fine.

Thanks

It's probably broken.

Two controllers are pretty much independent of each other, with the exception of failover situation.

If you haven't done it yet, try power off / power on on the troublesome controller.

I've already tried to power off and power on but it still doesn't work.

The problem is that i can not connect via console too

Thanks

another thing to try is to swap controllers in slots. if the behavior of troubled controller will be the same in the working slot, then the problem is in the controller.

quick question...

have you checked to see if the controller has failed over...

if you logon to the running controller you will be able to see its cluster failover status cf status will work, but the CLI itself should show you are in failover mode as soon as you logon.

I assume that this HA configuration has worked previously?
