Performing dynamic reconfiguration on I/O boards
Under certain circumstances, you must stop VCS on the domain where you are reconfiguring a board.
See Scenarios requiring a VCS shutdown.
For s6800:
In the following scenario, a cluster consists of the dom1 and the dom3 domains. The cluster is running service groups on the dom1 domain, which includes I/O boards N0.IB8 and N0.IB6. N0.IB8 requires dynamic reconfiguration because of a malfunctioning component. The domain dom3 includes I/O boards IO14 and IO15. The disk controllers and NICs are labeled in the following diagrams.
For e12K/15K/25K: In the following scenario, a cluster consists of the dom3 and the S6800f0 domains. The cluster is running service groups on the dom3 domain, which includes I/O boards IO14 and IO15. IO15 requires dynamic reconfiguration because of a malfunctioning component. The domain S6800f0 includes I/O boards IB8 and IB6. The disk controllers and NICs are labeled in the following diagrams.
