Some issues require a controller reset (reboot). You can reset the controller even if you don't have physical access to it.

Before you begin

  • The storage array must have two controllers. The controller that you are not resetting must be online (in the optimal state).

  • Make sure that no volumes are in use or that you have a multipath driver installed on all hosts using these volumes.

Steps

  1. From the left panel, select menu:Hardware[Controllers and components].

  2. Click the controller that you want to reset.

    The controller's context menu appears.

  3. Select Reset, and confirm that you want to perform the operation.
