Yesterday we swapped out a PS700 (840670Y). It's in a BladeCenter S. The planar went bad on the old one. New one is powered up, in SMS, but I don't want to screw up and lose all my existing data. I'm not familiar enough with these setups to just start clicking and typing. In the storage manager I can see the old Host Port Identifiers, so is it just a matter of adding the new Host Port Identifier as an option in storage manager? The backend storage is a DS3500 So, my overall question is this, in order to regain access to the existing data in the new blade, do I just need to add the Host Port Identifier to the mappings for the host?
I've tried to provide as much information as I can and ask the question in a way it makes sense. If I need to provide more information please let me know. Because at this point I don't know what I don't know and don't want to muddy the water up by including too much impertinent information.
Thanks in advance,
BJ
